Resolution

Open a case at CA Broadcom Technical Support requested the fix for this.

The fix contains 2 files :

CACIC.jar
Util.bat
 
And installation procedure is :

- Rename file C:\Program Files (x86)\CA\SC\CIC\bin\util.bat as C:\Program Files (x86)\CA\SC\CIC\bin\util.bat.CU4
- Copy new file Util.bat into C:\Program Files (x86)\CA\SC\CIC\bin
 
- Rename file C:\Program Files (x86)\CA\SC\CIC\lib\CACIC.jar as C:\Program Files (x86)\CA\SC\CIC\lib\CACIC.jar.CU4
- Copy new file CACIC.jar into C:\Program Files (x86)\CA\SC\CIC\lib

Additional Information

This fix have been included in CU5 patch. So alternative solution is to apply CU5 or CU6 (or patch released after) on Domain Manager.
