Hi Zoltan
Regarding freezing scheduler.
Please open pmr and you should get hotfix which solves the issue.  That bug
was already identified and fixed.

Krzysztof

Hello Gerd,

Thank you for the info. After much searching, I finally found it here:
https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/node/6537634

I still can not find it on IBM's PSIRT site.

Hello Uwe,

Thank you for the response.  If that is true, then we have a more serious
problem.  We have had to restart the appliance twice since upgrading on
December 22nd.  I don't see anything on the PSIRT page about addressing
anything other than 2.15 in SPP.

Hello Zoltan,

AFAIK 10.1.9 iFix2 does only include Log4j 2.17.0

Can anyone here from IBM tell us what issues are addressed in ifix2?

Against better judgment, we jumped from 10.1.8.2 to 10.1.9.1 to mitigate Log4j 
but are now having intermittent scheduling freeze-ups (e.g. suddenly all 
policies/report schedules stop running/being scheduled) requiring a reboot of 
the appliance.

IBM is infamous for releasing patches/updates but not updating the 
documentation for many days later.  We have already opened a ticket for the 
problem itself.
