Note:- The hostname is kept same in the migration and only the IP address is changed.

Resolution

Application crashes upon startup and produces a system core file on AIX systems (such as AIX V6.1) running on POWER7 processors. The crash occurs due to a "gpf" in the "libj9jit23.so" module.

Prior to running the application set the variable JAVA_COMPILER to none, using this variable will cause the Java SDK to turn off the JIT compiler feature in Java.

export JAVA_COMPILER=none
