A fix is available
APAR status
Closed as suggestion for future release.
Error description
Information Server / DataStage 8.5 job which accesses Oracle 11.2 client on zLinux platform using Oracle Connector fails with the following error: /opt/IBM/InformationServer/Server/PXEngine/bin/osh: symbol lookup error: /opt/oracle/11server/lib/libclntsh.so.11.1: undefined symbol: clock_gettime The same job works ok if Oracle 10.x client is used. Oracle 11.2 client support is not yet available for some legacy stage types on zLinux platform. This APAR opened to add that enhancement.
Local fix
IIS 8.5 on zLinux supports connecting to Oracle 11.2 server using Oracle 10 client. The function is currently fully available in v8.7.0.0 Oracle Connector.
Problem summary
Customer was having errors using Oracle Operator on zLinux with Oracle 11g client.
Problem conclusion
It was suggested that Customer use the Oracle Client 10g for Oracle Operator. The support for Oracle 11g Client on zLinux was added to Oracle Connector in v8.7.0.0.
Temporary fix
Use the Oracle 10 client for zLinux.
Comments
At the time we started supporting Oracle 11g there was no zLinux Oracle Client available to build and test with. Once the Oracle client became available we had to modify linker options to exploit Oracle 11g on zLinux.
