When using Parse file to set the temporary table field, if the string users are setting is longer than 1024 characters, it is truncated, because 1024 is a hardcoded value.

Refer to MID Server parameters for more information.

2. Parse a value (greater than 1024 characters) from the file to a temporary variable column on a temporary variable table.

When users try to access the application service in the map view, the map freezes and it is unable to navigate through the nodes, applications, and the database instances in any of the service maps.

The problem happens to the synchronization between the service map and the big impact graph (more than 1K nodes). To avoid this problem, set the property em.map.disable. impact.tree.highlight to 'true'. The default value of the property is 'false' for backward compatibility.

For example, an ITIL user does not have the access to create a problem, and only has the read and write access to the problem. If the ITIL user tries to create a problem/problem task from the checklist, the problem should not be visible to the ITIL user as the user does not have the create access. However, in this case, the ITIL user is able to see the Problem option but not able to create one.
