Release 7.6.0.2 - June 11, 2024


Change IDPlatformsComponentDescription
D-11554Unix (except HP-UX)PYTHON

Exclude the nis module from the Universal Agent's Python distribution on Linux.

The nis module is a thin wrapper around the NIS library, which is only available on Unix systems (not Linux).

Attempts to import the nis module from a script that executes with the Universal Agent Python distribution on Linux will issue the following error: ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'nis'

The module will import successfully on AIX and Solaris with the following warning: <stdin>:1: DeprecationWarning: 'nis' is deprecated and slated for removal in Python 3.13

D-11867Unix (except HP-UX)
Windows
UAGSRVEnsure that all temporary Universal Extension files are removed following cancellation of a Universal Extension task.
D-11929z/OSUAGSRV

Provide a new UAG Server configuration option, rerun_before_include, which is defined in UAGCFG00. This option controls whether a JCL INCLUDE statement should trigger the insertion of the UAGRERUN step.

Valid values and their meaning are as follows:

  • no -- a JCL INCLUDE statement will not trigger insertion of a UAGRERUN step. This is the default, which matches the behavior in previous versions.
  • yes – a UAGRERUN step is inserted ahead of a JCL INCLUDE statement.
D-12020AllUDM
UDMSRV
Expands support for files whose names contain multibyte (i.e., Unicode) characters.
D-12505z/OSUAGSRV

Adds the following messages to provide better information when the UNVJSC cluster dataset is not found or fails to open:

  • UAG5656 - Dataset jscds must be a VSAM cluster, where jscds is the name of the UNVJSC dataset
  • UAG5657 - Dataset jscds could not be opened, where jscds is the name of the UNVJSC dataset
D-12543z/OSUAGRERUNEnsures that unexpired archived datasets are deleted by UAGRERUN's cleanup logic.
D-12548Unix (except HP-UX, Solaris)
Windows
UAGSRVProvides a change that causes UAG Server and OMS Server activity spans for PeopleSoft task instances to remain associated with the Universal Controller's parent trace grouping.
D-12570

Expands support for multi-byte (i.e., Unicode) values specified in SAP tasks. This change ensures that Unicode values in job definition scripts or SAP task definitions are correctly passed to and received from the SAP system.

D-11270z/OSUAGSRVProvide message UAG5656E Dataset <dsname> specified for <jcl_save_library> cannot be found to make UAG Server start failures that occur due to missing JCL_SAVE_LIBRARY datasets more clear.
D-12506z/OSUAGRERUN

Improve error messaging when UAGRERUN executes on a system that does not have UAG Server. For example, when z/OS Workload Manager routes a job to a non-Agent system within a Sysplex, include a clear description of the error and the system on which UAGRERUN ran.
