Issue/Introduction

When attempting to setup MTCA with the ESM microservice using ACF2 the ESM microservice service indicates a successful validation:

ACF01137 uuuuuuu LAST SYSTEM ACCESS 06.56-02/11/20 FROM STCINRDR   


However, the browser flashes for a brief moment with the MTCA home screen and the following messages appear in the MTCA TOMCAT server log:

12:43:37.548 .https-jsse-nio-8443-exec-11. DEBUG c.c.m.c.OpsAuthenticationProvider - authenticate: ESM server info (example.com, 7100, TLS-ESM)

The log messages would indicate lack of access to this resource, but according to following rules the userid has the required permissions: 

RESOURCE RULE OP$MVS STORED BY uuuuuuu ON mm/dd/yy
$KEY(OP$MVS) TYPE(FAC) ROLESET                           
 OPSAOF USER(uuuuuuu) SERVICE(READ) ALLOW

 OPSPARM USER(uuuuuuu) SERVICE(READ,UPDATE) ALLOW        
 OPSPARM USER(uuuuuuu) SERVICE(READ,UPDATE) ALLOW        
TOTAL RECORD LENGTH= 339 BYTES, 1 PERCENT UTILIZED    

In MTCA log, there is message:

ERROR c.c.m.c.DiscoveryController - DiscoveryControllerWorker.run: A fatal error occurred during database initalization. java.lang.Exception: org.h2.jdbc.J dbcSQLException: File corrupted while reading record: null. Possible solution: use the recovery tool


  

Environment

OPS/MVS

Component : MAINFRAME TEAM CENTER AUTOMATION

Cause

The MTC-A database became corrupted.

Resolution

Deleting the database and then restarting MTCA, which recreates the database maybe a workaround.
It's recommended to open a case with the OPS/MVS support team.
