h2. UBROKER Enhancements

|| Backlog || Title || Description ||
| B-08841 | Local Broker should only send UCTL -stop to UCMSRV host when zOS UCMMGR is cancelled | The UBROKER on zOS has been changed to only pass to UControl the specific host that a Universal Command manager was connected to in the event of needing to send a stop command to the Universal command Server when the zOS Universal Command Manager is cancelled.
 
Previously if the user has specified a very long host list in the Universal command Manager, the resulting Universal Control invocation could produce one of a number of different error conditions. |





h2. UDM Enhancements

|| Backlog || Title || Description ||
| B-01832 | Add support for PAM using pam_open_session for Linux | New configuration option for udms.conf on Linux distributions:
 
SECURITY = PAM_SESSIONS 
 
Security is activated and uses PAM to verify user ID and password. PAM session modules are then processed. WARNING: Without a properly configured PAM session module, Universal Data Mover will fail when this value is set. Check system logs, including the authentication log, for failure information. |
| B-09330 | Add ability to transfer text data as binary and translate on target system | Performance Enhancement. |




h2. UFTP Enhancements

|| Backlog || Title || Description ||
| B-08447 | Enable connection fault tolerance for FTP file monitor tasks | The "ftp_fm_fault_tolerance yes/no" configuration option was added to uags.conf to enable FTP FM Fault Tolerance feature when UFTP is executed from UAG. When set to YES, and Wait Until Satisfied is turned on for the FTP FM instance, any error from UFTP is ignored up to the last poll attempt. If the error still occurs during the last poll attempt, the instance will go to the Start Failure state. When the parameter is set to NO (no fault tolerance), any error from UFTP is treated as fatal and the instance goes to Start Failure regardless of the Wait Until Satisfied value.

 
Fault Tolerance functionality for stand-alone (Command Line) execution of UFTP is disabled. When executed from UAG, all UFTP errors are treated as retryable
