Listed below is a summary of updates included. Please refer to the associated readme document for any additional information.
====================================================================== This hotfix is cumulative of previous TIB_amx_tap_020100 hotfixes.
Closed Issues in TIB_amx_tap_020100_2 (This Release)
1-9GSIK5: Administrator scripts no longer fail to launch on an AIX machine that has 64-bit ActiveMatrix installation, but a 32-bit JRE directory had been declared in the system's LIBPATH environment variable.
1-8J213R: Performance degradation in Administrator when used with Oracle, as compared with other databases, is no longer an issue. However, certain performance optimizations required changes to the underlying Database table schema. For backward compatibility, this schema change is not enabled for an existing Administrator cluster. The schema change is applied automatically for a new Administrator cluster only.
If you plan to create a new Administrator cluster after applying this hotfix, then you must also install the hotfix "AMX-RP-020100-1". The database schema change impacts AMX nodes, and for them to continue to function, that hotfix is required.
Certain other performance improvements were made in the command line scripting framework. An increasing performance degradation seen while deploying several service assemblies is now fixed. This fix applies to all platforms and databases, and it is not schema related.
1-9GT8TS: admincmdline no longer terminates with the rarely seen error: "XFireException (socket closed)" while running a batch of ANT commands. This symptom was caused because of an incorrect detection of a denial-of-service condition on the Administration server, which is now fixed.
1-9GT9A1: Fixed an issue seen with Sybase, where many operations, such as viewing details of a node in Administrator UI, failed with the database error "Implicit conversion from datatype 'VARCHAR' to 'NUMERIC' is not allowed. Use the CONVERT function to run this query.". This issue was specifically related to very large numbers generated by the database sequence generator. Generation of such large sequence ID numbers in Sybase server was seen rarely in some Sybase instances. Such large sequence ID numbers are now handled correctly in Administrator.
Closed Issues in TIB_amx_tap_020100_1 (Previous Release)
1-8UH6XZ: The ActiveMatrix Administrator server no longer reports the error "LDAP Error 12 Unavailable Critical Extension" when connecting to Sun Java System Directory Server version 6.3 for the LDAP Authentication Realm.
1-9AGELV: A null pointer exception is no longer reported when deleting a node. This was a regression from AMX 2.0.2-hf1
