The following defect solutions are included in this release:
IV65806
Cacherules does not produce a correct lookup table when there is
a blank value on the end of the key/value list. This problem has
been fixed.
IV68107
The MIB manager garbles the generated rules file when exporting
MIBs causing any events processed by these rules to have an
unusable OS_EventId. This problem has been resolved.
IV68942
A malloc error was issued when using invalid data in probe rules
for the nvp_add function. That message was incorrect and was
replaced with the correct error message that hilights the invalid
data.
IV68940
When CacheRules was set to 1 the lookup table would not be
written properly after a -HUP. This problem has been resolved.
IV69160
When a lookup table is empty, the cache file has an incorrect
checksum because of a syntax error. This problem has been
resolved.
IV68690
The syntax probe was unable to validate probe-specific rules
functions. This problem has been fixed. A corresponding fix to
any probe which uses probe-specific functions is required.
IV70540
The GSKit component used by Tivoli Netcool/OMNIbus is upgraded to
version 8.0.50.41. This is done to address a potential security
problem that is fixed in this version of GSKit.
IV69143
The LDAP libraries used by Tivoli Netcool/OMNIbus were updated to
TDS version 6.3.0.35 to address potential security issues.
Note: Not available for platforms HPUX and HPUXIA.
IV71122
The JRE for Tivoli Netcool/OMNIbus V7.3.1 and V7.4.0 was updated
to IBM JRE 6.0 SR16 FP3+IV70681 to address possible security
issues.
