Add the KILL_PROCESS_TREE option to control how UAG Server responds to a Cancel task command from Universal Controller. When yes, the entire process tree is terminated via SIGTERM. Any process within the tree that is still running after 10 seconds is terminated with a SIGKILL. UAG Server will confirm that all processes in the process tree are terminated before it notifies the Controller of the termination.
To preserve compatibility with existing behavior, the default value for this option is no, which can prevent the termination of a process in the tree that ignores the SIGTERM signal. This may cause the task's status in the Universal Controller to show Cancelled although the (now orphaned) process continues to run.
| Note | ||

This new option has no effect on tasks running with sudo authority. Such tasks will not receive a SIGTERM signal and are always terminated immediately with a SIGKILL. |

To support integration with Universal Monitor tasks, receive information from the Controller that can by used to identify an Extension task launched via a Universal Monitor Trigger.
Values received from the Controller are saved in the following properties:
self.uip.trigger_id- the Trigger UUID value set by the Controller that uniquely identifies the trigger instance. This will be undefined if the extension task was not launched by a Universal Monitor Trigger.self.uip.instance_id- the EXECID set by the Controller than uniquely identifies the Extension task instanceself.uip.monitor_id- the Universal Monitor UUID that uniquely identifies the Universal Monitor instance. This will be undefined if the extension task was not launched by a Universal Monitor.
The Universal Extension base class sets the following property when a Trigger ID is received:
self.uip.is_triggered- If the Extension task was executed via a Universal Monitor Trigger, this property will be True. Otherwise, it is False

Fix an issue that prevented a file monitor task from locating datasets when a wildcard is used as the first character in the dataset pattern.
This restores behavior that existed prior to Universal Agent 7.0.0.0.
Unix

Fix an issue introduced in UA 7.1.0.0, where a Universal Task fails to properly resolve resolvable credentials when the credential variable is enclosed in double quotes.
When running a File Transfer Task via a z/OS Agent, if the Local and/or Remote Filename values exceeded 72 characters, UAG Server failed to properly format the SYSIN DD statement in the JCL used to execute UFTP.
The z/OS Agent now ensures that such values are properly terminated at column 72 and continued to the next line.
