Issue
Spectrum server fails to start up on AIX with the following error in their wrapper log or when executing ./server.start: Segmentation fault (coredump)

Cause
AIX operating system was upgraded to the most recent patch level such as AIX 6100-09-02-1412 and AIX 7100-03-01-1341. This is causing the Spectrum server not to start. The java server wrapper version that Spectrum is shipped with, version 3.5.7, is not working with recent AIX patch levels.
Resolution
UPDATED: February 13, 2015The "Tanuki Wrapper Patch" CDQ 9.0 S22, CDQ 8.0 S39, and CDQ 7.0 S58 fixes this issue. The patches and patch release notes can be found on the G1 support site.
