DCI1112I REMAINING DAYS value does not match the date in LMP key

Products

• Dynamic Capacity Intelligence

Issue/Introduction

CA Dynamic Capacity Intelligence (DCI) Controller shows at startup a message indicating that the licence has nnn days remaining.
For example:
DCI1112I: REMAINING DAYS OF LICENSE: 131
Let's assume that 131 days from today is December, 31st 2018  

However the related LMP code has a different date, for example:
CAS9115I - INPUT: PROD(CM) DATE(19OCT19) CPU(nnnn-nnn /ssssss) LMPCODE(*******
CAS9190I - PRODUCT (CM) KEY ACCEPTED FOR THIS CPU

This seems to be inconsistent.

Environment

CA Dynamic Capacity Intelligence 1.5 GEN 0200

Cause

zDynaCap (zDC) is installed also on the same LPAR and DCI is looking there for the days remaining in that zDC version.

Resolution

The DCI1112I was completely removed starting from GEN 0300 as it was misleading. Install all the available maintenance to resolve the problem.
