Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: * *  IBM Maximo Spatial Asset Management 7.5 users, using Oracle * * database and separated database instances or schemas for * * Maximo and ArcGIS. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: * * Changes in GIS versioned objects, from Maximo, are not saved * * in GIS, sometimes silently, sometimes with an error message. * * * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * * Please install the latest Spatial interim fixes.  Notice * * that there are manual changes that must be followed, and all * * synonyms to versioned GIS tables must be replaced by views * * in Maximo database or schema. * ****************************************************************
Problem conclusion
The error is caused by a know Oracle problem, which happens in the specific model adopted in Maximo Spatial design, which in this case uses synonyms, views and database links. Maximo Spatial was modified to also work with views, instead of synonyms only, so the Maximo views pointing directly to GIS versioned views solve the updating problem.
