Closed as program error.
Error description
If a step used a filter set, but the filter set made no matches, AND the step timed out - the step would be marked as passing. Without using filters, the timeout would fail the step, and if there are no matches the step _should_ behave as if there were no filter sets used.
Local fix
Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** Symptom: A step with a filter applied and times out does not fail, it passes. Cause: The engine only looks for certain returns from the agent for application of a filter. The timeout event, or TMO, is not one of them. This timeout event has a special case applied where the filter code looks for TMO, only in the wrong place. The agent response looks like: 320 EXEC ExecStart["/tmp","server.ibm.com"] 300 HEARTBEAT 1 320 TMO ExecTimeout[+10] 251 RESULT 999 260 EOR The TMO entry is the type, not the log line. The filter code was errantly looking for TMO in the line.
Problem conclusion
Fix: Adjust the filter code to look for TMO in the type of log line, not the log line itself. Also made it possible to filter on the TMO type...if one should want to.
Temporary fix
