Issue
An Aveksa Statistics Report (ASR) cannot be generated in RSA Identity Governance & Lifecycle.

The aveksaServer.log file ($AVEKSA_HOME/wildfly/standalone/log/aveksaServer.log) has errors similar to the following:

Cause
The reason for this behavior is that there are special characters in the node name.

This is a known issue reported in engineering ticket ACM-76633.
 
Resolution
This issue is resolved in the following RSA Identity Governance & Lifecycle versions and patch levels:
  • RSA Identity Governance & Lifecycle 7.0.2 P05
  • RSA Identity Governance & Lifecycle 7.1.0
Please contact RSA Identity Governance & Lifecycle Support to move the report(s) from Generating status to Completed status. The report(s) may then be deleted.

Please see related RSA Knowledge Base Articles:
 
Workaround
The ASR may be run from the Linux command line. Please see RSA Knowledge Base Article 000027912 -- How to create an Aveksa Statistics Report (ASR) from the linux command line using SQL in RSA Identity Governance & Lifecycle for this workaround.
