UIM oracle probe - non-int values are not supported for "checked value" parameter

Products

• DX Unified Infrastructure Management (Nimsoft / UIM)

Issue/Introduction

When configuring the Oracle probe, you may notice that after configuring and testing a query, the "checked value" field does not allow you to select non-int values (only int-type values are available on the list) 

Environment

UIM 20.4 and later

Oracle probe 

Cause

Working as designed 

Resolution

This is working as designed, Oracle's probe "checked value" does not support non-int type values. 

However, there is a workaround for this issue.

You can modify the query to convert the output from YES to 1 and NO to 0 and then you will be able to use this in the checked value field.
