Unix

UAGSRV
 
UFTP 

Add explicit FTPS (FTPES) support to UFTP. 

Enables transfers using TLS/SSL over connection to standard FTP port 21, provided the FTP server supports it. 

To request TLS/SSL from a Remote File Transfer or Remote File Monitor task, select the FTP protocol and prepend ftpes:// to the FTP server host name or IP address (e.g., ftpes://somehost). If the FTP server has enabled TLS/SSL support, the connection will proceed using encrypted communication. If TLS/SSL support is NOT enabled, a plain text session/transfer is done. 

The UFTP ENABLE_SSL configuration option (default:no) is provided to always request a TLS/SSL session, eliminating the need to specify the ftpes:// prefix. 

The UFTP AUTHENTICATE_PEER configuration option (default: no) is provided to control FTP server certificate authentication. When set to “yes”, the UFTP CA_CERTIFICATES configuration option must specify a CA certificate that can authenticate the FTP server’s certificate. 

B-13282 

z/OS 

UAGSRV 

Add automatic failover support for Agents configured to execute in a sysplex environment.  

The following items were delivered for UA 7.2.0.0 to support this feature: 

  • B-13184: Allow a secondary agent to become a primary agent upon failover. 
  • B-13186: Allow a primary agent to become a secondary agent upon failover. 
  • B-13283: Provide the ability to configure a failover hierarchy, to determine the order in which secondary agents are chosen to become the new primary agent. 
  • B-13284: Provide the ability to stop a Universal Broker started task WITHOUT initiating a failover. 
  • B-13285: Provide the ability to stop a Universal Broker started task AND initiate a failover.  
  • B-13291: Allow a new primary agent to receive tracking data for jobs submitted or executed by the previous primary agent. 
  • B-13964: Ensure that licenses obtained from Universal Controller are handled properly within the updated primary and secondary agents whenever a failover occurs
Note
titleNote

To ensure proper accounting for z/OS licenses, we recommend that all UAG Servers configured to run in a sysplex environment use the same value for the UAG Server’s NETNAME configuration option.

  • A subsequent step in the z/OS task's JCL contains an EXEC COND= parameter that references the ABENDed step, that would normally prevent execution of the step

Prior to this fix, the EXEC COND= parameter is not honored when the ABEND occurs, and the step executes.

This fix ensures the Step Condition and the EXEC COND= configuration is honored.

B-14071

Unix

UAGSRV

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.

Prevent an authentication error for a File Transfer task when the following conditions exist:

  • File Transfer task uses Universal Data Mover (UDM)

  • UDM script is used by the task

  • UDM script issues the exec or execsap command

  • exec or execsap command uses the pwd parameter
  • One of the built-in credential variables – $(ops_primary_cred_pwd) or $(ops_secondary_cred_pwd) -- is used for the pwd parameter's value

For example:

Code Block
languagetext
open src=local dst=rmthost.ipaddr user=$(ops_secondary_cred_user) pwd=$(ops_secondary_cred_pwd)
exec src cmd="dir" user=$(ops_primary_cred_user) pwd=$(ops_primary_cred_pwd)

Starting with UA 7.0.0.0, this will cause the resolved $(ops_primary_cred_pwd) value in the exec statement to be enclosed in double quotes ("). The double quotes are retained when passed to UCMD Manager (or USAP for an execsap statement). The double quotes will prevent successful password authentication.

    Add explicit FTPS (FTPES) support to UFTP. 

    Enables transfers using TLS/SSL over connection to standard FTP port 21, provided the FTP server supports it. 

    To request TLS/SSL from a Remote File Transfer or Remote File Monitor task, select the FTP protocol and prepend ftpes:// to the FTP server host name or IP address (e.g., ftpes://somehost). If the FTP server has enabled TLS/SSL support, the connection will proceed using encrypted communication. If TLS/SSL support is NOT enabled, a plain text session/transfer is done. 

    The UFTP ENABLE_SSL configuration option (default:no) is provided to always request a TLS/SSL session, eliminating the need to specify the ftpes:// prefix. 

    The UFTP AUTHENTICATE_PEER configuration option (default: no) is provided to control FTP server certificate authentication. When set to “yes”, the UFTP CA_CERTIFICATES configuration option must specify a CA certificate that can authenticate the FTP server’s certificate.

    B-14036AllUFTP

    Establish a connection to the (S)FTP Server before attempting the requested transfer operation. This will allow connection-specific failures to be isolated and reported.

    To support this change, the following message:

    UNV3707E cURL reports could not connect.

    was replaced with:

    UNV6955E Unable to establish an FTP server connection (curl_rc): curl_msg

    where curl_rc and curl_msg are the return code and error message, respectively, that identify the problem.

    In addition, UFTP now displays the entire connection conversation between it and the Server without requiring the -verbose option.
