Error description
Calling an API under a user ID which is authenticated but not authorized to invoke the API in z/OS Connect EE causes a NullPointerException to be thrown by the OMEGAMON for JVM monitoring interceptor: com.ibm.omegamon.kjj.zosconnect.KJJ_ExtendedInterceptor .postInvoke(KJJ_ExtendedInterceptor.java:417) and message: [KJJ_ExtendedInterceptor] J KJJZC0002E An error occurred in postInvoke: null The expected BAQR0409W message is issued to record that the user ID is not authorized to perform the request, but the null pointer errors should not be produced.

Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All users of z/OS Connect EE V3.0 * * monitoring interceptors. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: A null timestamp is passed to * * monitoring interceptors during * * postInvoke processing when an * * unauthorized z/OS Connect EE user ID is * * used. * **************************************************************** Under some circumstances no value was provided for the TIME_ZOSCONNECT_EXIT data key during postInvoke processing. This could cause the monitoring interceptor consuming this data to throw a NullPointerException. The problem was originally reported with OMEGMON for JVM, but could be encountered with any z/OS Connect EE monitoring interceptor.
Problem conclusion
Temporary fix
Comments
z/OS Connect EE has been changed to ensure that the TIME_ZOSCONNECT_EXIT field is correctly populated and passed to monitoring interceptors. The fix for this APAR is expected to be delivered by the PTF for z/OS Connect EE V3.0.23.0 (PH13344).
