Issue/Introduction
After upgrading to 21.2.8 our NCM will not start with the following output shown in the NCMSERV.OUT log file:

Cause
The following NCMSERV.idb file has a custom setting pointing to an older jar file:
$SPECROOT/lib/SDPM/partslist/NCMSERV.idb
Environment
DX NetOps Spectrum Release : 21.2
Component : Spectrum Applications
Resolution
custom NCMSERV.idb points to incorrect CLASSPATH:
ENV;CLASSPATH=$SPECROOT/lib/jdom.jar<CSPATHSEP>;
The correct one in 21.2.8 is this:
ENV;CLASSPATH=$SPECROOT/lib/jdom-2.0.6.1.jar<CSPATHSEP>;
Additional Information
The default NCMserv.idb looks like this on Windows 21.2.8
