TB101 Inventory Page May Fail to Load on Continuous Compliance (formerly: Masking) Engines with Large Number of Columns
Alert Type
Functional Regression
Impact
An affected Continuous Compliance engine may be difficult or impossible to manage. If accessing or updating the Inventory tab is required for a masking workflow, then use of an affected Continuous Compliance engine could be degraded or blocked.
Contributing Factors
This issue can only occur when running the following version of the Continuous Compliance engine:
| Standard Release | All Patch Releases |
|---|---|
| 7.0.0.0 | None |
The issue is only thought to occur when the total number of masked columns configured for masking on a Continuous Compliance engine is larger than 32767 columns.
Onset of the error will begin on affected Continuous Compliance engines shortly or immediately after upgrading to 7.0.0.0.
Determining if the Continuous Compliance Engine May Be Impacted
Use the following steps to verify the current number of masked columns to help ensure not to exceed 32767 columns:
- Login into the Compliance Engine API client (KBA: Logging_into_and_Connecting_to_the_Masking_API_Client_(KBA5754) )
- Select the ColumnMetadata API call, switch the parameter is_masked to true and press Execute (the graphic of the page may differ depending on the current Compliance engine version):
3. Check that the returned “total” at the top of the response windows is not more than 32767 columns:
Symptoms
After trying to select the Inventory tab in the Continuous Compliance user interface, a pop-up dialog may occur with text similar to the following:
Error An exception has occurred, rerouting to environments page. Unable to rollback against JDBC Connection
Relief/Workaround
One or more of the following workarounds is available:
- Avoid upgrading Continuous Compliance Engines to the 7.0.0.0 release
- Reduce the number of masked columns on an affected Continuous Compliance Engine by removing one or more rulesets
Resolution
The issue is resolved in DevOps Data Platform 8.0.0.0 and later releases for Continuous Compliance Engines.
