Universal Agent 6.4.x for z/OS installation package is delivered as an DFDSS backup. This significantly reduces the number of files that need to be transferred during the installation process. A zip version of the installation package also is provided.

D-04266: FMID TUAG520 is not selected by SMP/E APPLY when upgrading a CSI with TUAG510 install.

D-02817: Upgrade from 3.x or 4.x did not allocate UAG model data set.

Universal Automation Center Agent (UAG) is installed as FMID TUAG510. UAG provides agent services for an Opswise Automation Center Controller, enabling it to schedule workload, transfer files, and monitor events on the agent system.
 
UAG replaces Universal Automation Center Registration Server (UAR), introduced in Stonebranch Solutions 4.3.0.
 

Universal Automation Center Registration Server (UAR) is installed as FMID TUAR430. UAR provides the ability to register the Universal Broker with Opswise Automation Center 1.6 and 1.7.

The Universal Broker and Universal Enterprise Controller STCs can now use user profiles with non-zero UID values instead of UID 0 as required in previous releases. See Converting STC User Profiles to a Non-Zero UID for details on how to convert the STC user profiles from UID 0 to a non-zero UID value.

UPI-589: SE37 ABEND occurs on the SMPWRK6 ddname in the UNVSMPE JCL procedure during APPLY processing. PTF PU35001 has an SMP/E HOLD with instructions on modifying the UNVSMPE JCL procedure to avoid the SE37 ABEND.

Product configuration files have been moved from SMP/E target libraries SUNVCONF and SUNVCOMP to non-SMP/E product libraries UNVCONF and UNVCOMP. The change allows for remote configuration capability of z/OS configuration members. Configuration members are delivered in the SMP/E SUNVSAMP library and copied to the appropriate library in an installation job.
 
All SMP/E target and distribution libraries have been changed from PDS to PDSEs. This includes the load libraries SUNVLOAD and AUNVLOAD. The installation upgrade jobs include steps to convert existing libraries to PDSE format.

DF03150: LMOD elements UCMSCPST, UCMSS000 and UCMSR000 were not defined correctly. Their JCLIN did not account for implicitly defined modules used in the CSSLIB. This fix updates their JCLIN and adds a DDDEF for CSSLIB.

Package size has increased significantly as the Universal Broker and Server components are now included as FMIDs. Product SMP/E target library SUNVLOAD and SMP/E distribution library AUNVLOAD space allocation should be increased to meet the new space requirements. Additionally, SMP/E SMPLTS and SMPPTS data sets and SMPTLIB DDDEF space requirements have increased.

Products are packaged in the new Universal Products package. Starting with Universal Products 2.2.0, SMP/E target and distribution libraries are now shared between all products in order to make maintenance and administration easier.
 
Product target and distribution data set names have changed. All products in the Universal Products package use UNV as the three character product identifier. As such, the last qualifier of the target libraries start with SUNV and the last qualifier of the distribution libraries start with AUNV.

Start with Universal Command 2.1.0, the SMP/E target and distribution libraries SUCMNLS, AUCMNLS, SUCMCONF, and AUCMCONF have changed their record format from variable block to fixed block.

Starting with Universal Command 1.2.0, the SMP/E target and distribution library names have changed. The product name qualifier has been changed to the three-character product identifier, and the version, release, modification qualifier (V1R1M0) has been removed. The changes comply with the IBM naming conventions for SMP/E libraries. Also, the absence of the version qualifier will make future upgrades much simpler and trouble-free.
