I'm not sure what to tell you Sean, you'll probably have to call
Supportline.
You didn't say what version of WAS you were on, but besides the WAS
group PTF you will also (at a minimum) need:
SF99530 CUMULATIVE PTF PACKAGE Current Level: 5298
SF99529 GROUP HIPER Current Level: 70
SF99503 DB2 UDB FOR ISERIES Current Level: 8
SF99269 JAVA Current Level: 9
SF99099 IBM HTTP SERVER FOR ISERIES Current Level: 7
And possibly:
SF99295 WEBSPHERE MQ FOR ISERIES Current Level: 7
SF99173 IBM BUSINESS SOLUTIONS Current Level: 3
Some or all of these may have come with your WebsFear group PTF, but
they don't always get the current levels.

subject: Re: V5R3 Websphere application server not showing in admin
I'm used to the tabs. I've checked All Servers and Application Servers.
There is a dropdown to list the different servers on the Application
Servers tab, but the only entry (besides Select One) is All Servers.
I'm using MSIE because I've had problems with the IBM created apps and
Firefox. Not that it should matter, but I always use
https://myserver:2010/HTTPAdmin because I like to encrypt everything.
The box is an 810 with 4GB of RAM, and I'm basically the only user doing
anything on it, so there isn't much delay for anything loading. I
didn't mention explicitly, but our app didn't work at all after the V5R3
upgrade until I found the WAS group to apply. Today is the first day
the app crashed (I've been told it was running today then stopped) even
though it hasn't been on the admin page since the upgrade 3 weeks ago.
Thanks,
Sean
