IBM Platform Symphony 7.1 Interim Fix #420751 Readme File

Abstract

For a Platform Symphony 5.1 or 6.1.1 environment, when you submit workload using the 5.1 or 6.1.1 client to a Platform Symphony 7.1 cluster, and a task fails, the client shows an ECODE_ERROR_NOT_PROPAGATED_BUT_EXPECTED exception.

Description

In an environment where the client and service are compiled by Platform Symphony 5.1 or 6.1.1, and you use the 5.1 or 6.1.1 client environment to submit workload to a 7.1 cluster, when a task fails, the client encounters the following error:

“Domain <SOAM>: Internal Error: ECODE_ERROR_NOT_PROPAGATED_BUT_EXPECTED.

The exception associated with the task result was not propagated to the client. Contact Platform technical support.”

The client receives the wrong error message, and the exception is misleading.

This fix ensures that SSM sends the proper error message to the client.

This fix applies only to Linux 64-bit hosts.
