Readme File for: IBM Spectrum Symphony
Product Release: 7.2.1.1
Update Name: Interim Fix 528183
Fix ID: sym-7.2.1.1-build528183
Publication Date: August 28, 2019
When the loader controller service (PLC) loads task history data in IBM Spectrum Symphony 7.2.1.1, if the last failure reason contains double quotation marks and a comma followed by other messages, the PLC truncates the other message in to a new file and records the “Some of the task history record is not valid” exception in the symtaskhistloader log file. This interim fix provides a resolution for this issue.
