A WebSphere Information Services Director operation with a WebSphere DataStage provider incorrectly returns 0 for 32-bit BigInt values. For values greater than 32 bits the operation returns the correct result.
WebSphere Information Services Director fails to start new WebSphere DataStage job instances after a job terminates.
Under normal operation the ASB Agent stops all the jobs it has started to serve WebSphere Information Services Director services. For some jobs, not all of the osh processes are stopping. When the error occurs there are one or two osh processes left running.
Attempting to partially deploy an IBM Information Server Web console application (being able to decide what services in the application are deployed) might result in an error indicating the services have no binding attached.
An WebSphere Information Services Director operation that exposes a WebSphere DataStage job with a Decimal output column fails.
Cannot save an application that contains an operation that exposes a job with encrypted parameters with default values, you must re-enter the values in the WebSphere Information Services Director console. After typing the encrypted values in the WebSphere Information Services Director console the values are displayed in clear text.
