Error description

• Severity: 3
  
  Approver:LG
  Compid:  5724C04MS
  Abstract: tacmd setoverride fails if there are 2 or more spaces
  between
  attribute name and the logical operator
  
  
  
  
  Environment:  ITM 6.2.2 Fp03
  rz      Monitoring Agent for Oracle Database Extended
           aix526  Version: 06.31.00.01
  
  
  
  Problem Description:
   tacmd setoverride fails if there are 2 or more spaces between
   attribute name and the logical operator
  
  tsitm2(pTEMS):/opt/Tivoli $ tacmd setoverride -s PS_TEST_ORA -m
  
  RZ:TXTC-TXTC-hkpow302:RDB -p
  "KRZ_RDB_CUSTOMIZED_SQL_DETAIL.Number_Value_1  GE 94"
  
  KUICAC001I Validating user credentials...
  
  KUICAC017E The command failed because the predicate attribute
  name
  "KRZ_RDB_CUSTOMIZED_SQL_DETAIL.Number_Value_1 " is not a valid
  predicate
  attribute name for situation "PS_TEST_ORA"
  
  The situation does not have any predicate attributes matching
  the
  attribute name you specified.
  
  1)setoverride fails if there are 2 or more spaces between
  attribute name
  and the logical operator:
  $ tacmd setoverride -s PS_TEST_ORA -m  RZ:TXTC-TXTC-hkpow302:RDB
  -p
  "KRZ_RDB_CUSTOMIZED_SQL_DETAIL.Number_Value_1  GE 94"
  
  2)setoverride should detect if operator in override does not
  match the
  operator used in situation formula and return specific error
  message
  rather then vague generic error.
  

Local fix

• check spacing in command
  

Problem summary

• tacmd setoverride command fails if there are two or more spaces
  between attribute name and the logical operator like in the
  example below:
  
   $ tacmd setoverride -s PS_TEST_ORA -m RZ:TXTC-TXTC-hkpow302:RDB
  -p "KRZ_RDB_CUSTOMIZED_SQL_DETAIL.Number_Value_1  GE 94"
  
  KUICAC001I Validating user credentials...
  
  KUICAC017E The command failed because the predicate attribute
  name
  "KRZ_RDB_CUSTOMIZED_SQL_DETAIL.Number_Value_1 " is not a valid
  predicate
  attribute name for situation "PS_TEST_ORA"
  
  The situation does not have any predicate attributes matching
  the attribute name you specified.
  

Problem conclusion

• Proper handling of whitespace has been implemented.
