Introduction
iFix021 is the next in a series of iFixes that address issues associated with version 7.0.2 for IBM ELM. Thanks to this iFix, many specifications are modified in versions 7.0.3 as well. This iFix is active as of 11.3.2023 and this article summarizes the main issues that have been resolved. Installation of other software is also available for EWM: IBM EWM client for Eclipse update site, Microsoft visual studio and Windows shell.
Overview of Main Fixes
Among the main solved problems with the Jazz Foundation is that the DB2 database version 13.1 is supported now for IBM ELM 7.0.2.
Fixed when a link column was configured to display a multi-value attribute for projects using a custom project template, only one value is displayed in IBM Engineering Requirements Management DOORS Next.
Among the main errors removed in IBM Engineering Test Management is that requirement IDs were not resolving correctly when link validity is enabled.
Fixed adding project area information to the log entry for WorkItemMigrationHandler when known in IBM Engineering Workflow Management.
This iFix also solves the main problem with the IBM Engineering System Design Rhapsody – Model Manager, that an "java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Item handle array cannot exceed 2048 elements" exception occurs when querying RMM via REST API.
