Agent 7.1.0.0 - October 4, 2021
Change ID | Platforms | Component | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
B-10691 | All | UAGSRV | 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-12809 | All | USAP | Update USAP to support the RSPARAMSL_255 data type for variants. The following USAP operations may now take advantage of this change:
These changes are supported for XBP 2.0 and XBP 3.0, but full 255-character support ultimately depends on the SAP function module implementation. Note For the most consistent RSPARAMSL_255 support, Stonebranch recommends using SAP NW RFC library version 7.5.x and XBP 3.0 (controlled via the USAP XBP_MAX configuration option). |
B-13316 | Unix (except HP-UX) | UFTP | Update SSH Key Exchange and Cipher support for SFTP transfers. Provides better compatibility with default OpenSSH configurations, by making the following changes to supported key exchange methods: Added:
Removed:
The diffie-helman-group-exchange-sha256 key exchange method was left unchanged. Support for the following ciphers was added:
Support for the following ciphers was left unchanged:
|
B-13768 | Unix | UAGSRV | Improve response and performance when several file monitor tasks that check file stability run concurrently. |
B-13819 | Unix | UEXT | Provide the UAGSRV EXTENSION_PYTHON_LIST configuration option to extend the list of locations searched for Python instances that may be used by Universal Extension tasks. Note The HP-UX and z/OS agents do not provide the Universal Extension. |
B-13820 | Unix | UAGSRV | Allow the following Universal Extension config options to be set at install time or via Broker startup:
Note The HP-UX and z/OS agents do not provide the Universal Extension. |
B-13821 | Unix | UEXT | Update the values supported via the requires_python declaration of a Universal Extension implementation as follows:
Note The HP-UX and z/OS agents do not provide the Universal Extension. |
B-13822 | Windows | UEXT | Allow usermode installs to discover the Python distribution provided by a system mode-installed Agent. Note The HP-UX and z/OS agents do not provide the Universal Extension. |
B-13831 | Unix | UEXT | Provide the ability for Universal Extensions to detect and respond to Cancel commands issued from Universal Controller. This option provides the new UAG Server configuration option, EXTENSION_CANCEL_TIMEOUT. The ability to configure that value at install time and/or Universal Broker startup is also provided. Note The HP-UX and z/OS agents do not provide the Universal Extension. |
B-13846 | Unix | UEXT | Allow Universal Extension tasks to accept authentication tokens (e.g., used for Web or cloud-based service authentication) from a Universal Controller resolvable credential object. Note The HP-UX and z/OS agents do not provide the Universal Extension. |
B-13860 | Unix | UEXT | Refactor the Universal Extension logging API so that it is no longer necessary to instantiate an ExtensionLogger object. Logging methods can now be accessed using the following import:
Logging methods can be invoked using calls such as either:
Note The HP-UX and z/OS agents do not provide the Universal Extension. |
B-13908 | Unix | UEXT | Add the ability to execute Dynamic Commands within a Universal Extension task without launching a separate process (i.e., support “in-process” Dynamic Command execution). Note The HP-UX and z/OS agents do not provide the Universal Extension. |
B-13931 | Unix | OMS | Add a service timeout implementation to the OMS Java Client to enable detection of connection issues without waiting for a TCP keepalive interval to elapse. Note The ability to configure this value is provided via the Universal Controller with B-13967. |
B-14049 | Unix | UAGSRV | Ensure that any instances of a password exposed by a Universal Extension task are scrubbed from the UAG Server cache files. |
D-07313 | Unix | UAGSRV | Improve message handling and separation to prevent possible message loss. |
D-09852 | Unix | UDM | Ensure that the message that shows the result of the CD command displays correctly. This issue was most visible on zOS, but could occur on any Linux/Unix system whose default locale is not UTF8. |
D-10210 | All | UDM | Scrubs any password specified with the OPEN statement from trace file output. |
D-10256 | All | UDM | Fixes a crash that could occur if the UDM Manager message level was set to “trace” from the command line. |
D-10371 | Unix | OMSSRV | Prevents re-delivery of OMS messages following automatic recovery executed against a corrupted, truncated data file. |
D-10470 | Linux PPC | All | Prevent a crash during OpenSSL random number generation seeding observed on RHEL8 on a PowerPC system. |
