APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • BIGINT data type is treated as Integer data type. When the value
goes above 2,147,483,647, which is the maximum Integer value,
it is parsed as a negative number or a different number. The
same issue is also seen with ODBC Connector.

Local fix

  • Use Netezza connector on a Parallel job.

Problem summary

  • Connectors on server canvas are getting wrong data in reading
various integer data types.

Problem conclusion

  • Analysis:

In Server framework code, there was some problem in handling
of various integer types when reading from integer columns. The
connector treats these integer datatypes as string fields
after schema reconciliation. But Server framework didn't take
notice of this change.


Resolution:

The code in Server connector framework was fixed in handling
integer data types correctly

Temporary fix
