APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• When running REST request to retrive columns from agents that
  have column tables defined as 1 byte integers an error is
  received.
  ATKRST100E An unexpected error occured. The error message is as
  follows:unknown data type:0.
  RECREATE INSTRUCTIONS:
  From the ITM dataprovider test tool run the following request
  for an ITM environment that has an Omegamon for Z/os agent
  (KM5) running and app support installed at the Tivoli Portal
  Server.
  /ibm/tivoli/rest/providers/itm.SYSL%3ACMS/datasources/TMSAgent.%
  IBM.STATIC007/datasets/MetricGroup.SYSCPUUTIL/items?properties=C
  PUFLAG&p aram_SourceToken=OHL1DSST:SP22:MVSSYS
  

Local fix

• Remove any 1 byte interger columns from the REST requests.
  

Problem summary

• Unsigned Integers in Omegamon agent data showing as -1.
  
  
  Tivoli Monitioring attributes defined with a TYPE parameter that
  uses the kfw.unsignedinteger class for formatting do not show
  the correct number value in Tivoli Portal report workspaces.
  

Problem conclusion

• Fixed the Tivoli Portal so unsigned integers properly use the
  unsigned integer formatting routine.
