Problem conclusion

  • Compliance calculations happening in Report code were not
    consistently correct. Hence, those were moved to back-end and a
    REST API was created which provided status of job directly.
    Code changes were done on Report side to make use of
    aforementioned REST API. This issue has been corrected in IBM
    Spectrum Protect Plus 10.1.15.
