h1. {anchor:Release 5.2.0.11} Release 5.2.0.11 - April 27, 2015
|| Change ID || Platform || Component || PTF || Description ||
| B-04946 | All | UEM \\
UEM (USS) | PS07001 \\
PS08001	| Keep the control session that exists between the [UEM Manager|UAUMFT520:Universal Event Monitor Manager] and [UEM Server|UAUMFT520:Universal Event Monitor Server] open until the UEM Manager acknowledges receipt of the Server’s ENDED message.
 
{note:title=Note}
This behavior is only enabled for sessions between UEM Manager 5.2.0.1 or later and UEM Server 5.2.0.2 or later.

PS04019 \\
PS04020	| Issue error for [rename|UAUMFT520:Rename - UDM command] command if target file already exists.
 
{note:title=Note}
This change alters default behavior for files renamed via the *rename* script statement executed for UNIX and z/OS (HFS only) sessions.  Prior to this change, existing files were silently overwritten by the rename statement.  This differed from behavior for Windows sessions, which issued an error when an attempt was made to rename a file to one that already exists.
 
The change was made to consistently provide an OS/file system-independent experience from within UDM.  
 
The *ALLOW_REPL_ON_RENAME* configuration option is being provided to restore previous behavior.  It may be set from the UDM Manager command line or the [UDM Manager|UAUMFT520:ALLOW_REPL_ON_RENAME - UDM Manager configuration option] or [UDM Server|UAUMFT520:ALLOW_REPL_ON_RENAME - UDM Server configuration option] configuration file.
{note} |
| D-05458 | Windows and UNIX | UAGSRV |   | Allow *Create* [File Monitor tasks|OWC610:File Monitor Task] to continue when specified directory path specified does not exist. 
 
{note:title=Note}
This changes restores default behavior that existed prior to the initial 5.2.0.0 Universal Automation Center Agent release (that is, in 5.1.0.x and earlier).  
 
You may revert to the behavior introduced in 5.2.0.0 by setting the new [FM_CREATE_FAIL_NODIR|UAUMFT520:FM_CREATE_FAIL_NODIR - UAG configuration option] configuration option to *yes* in uags.conf.
