Error description
Instances of business model objects that contain properties of the following types are not upgraded correctly when an upgrade is performed from either WSRR v6.3 or v7.0 to WSRR v7.5 or v8.0. Time, Integer, Short, DateTime, Float and Double While the upgrade might complete without error the value of properties can be corrupted to a value that is not what we present on the source WSRR server.

Problem summary
**************************************************************** USERS AFFECTED: All users of WebSphere Service Registry and Repository V7.5 and V8.0 who are performing an upgrade from WSRR V6.3 or V7.0 and have created customized business model types in the source WSRR that make use of the following datatypes Time, Integer, Short, DateTime, Float and Double. **************************************************************** PROBLEM SUMMARY: The code that processes the values of properties of type Time, Integer, Short, DateTime, Float and Double from the existing WSRR instance was not interpreting the stored values of properties correctly. As such it was corrupting their values in the target WSRR instance during the upgrade process. Please note, the Default/Basic profile and the GEP do not make use of the affected datatypes and so there is only a problem when the user has created their own business model in the source WSRR that makes use of them. If you have not customized your business models on the source database then upgrade will work correctly without this fix.
Problem conclusion
The code was changed to correctly process all data types from WSRR v6.3 and v7.0. This fix is targeted for inclusion in WSRR v8.0.0.2 and WSRR v7.5.0.4
