|
B-09713 | All | UFTP | Add timestamp parameter support to message_level option |
B-10102 | Unix | UAGSRV | Enable fault tolerance for Linux/Unix tasks to allow timeouts against authentication servers (e.g., LDAP) to automatically restart. Enables the following configuration options for Unix:
|
B-10106 | All | UBROKER | Increase the RSA key length from 1024 to 2048 for the Broker’s internal self-signed certificate. |
B-10365 B-12882 | All | UCMD UCTL UEM UFTP USAP UPPS | Expand the number of characters supported for password values by creating a custom parsing routine to handle them. Relaxes some rules for specifying passwords, such as permitting values that start with or contain characters traditionally used for delimiting command line options. |
B-10681 | Linux s390x | PKG | Update the package and installation requirements for the Agent on Linux s390x. The install now requires the following: · a 3.10 or higher Linux kernel 3.10 · glibc 2.17-137 or higher |
B-11274 | zOS | UDM UDMSRV | Preserve an existing dataset’s attributes if it is used for the savedata command. |
B-11140 B-11141 | All | UFTP | Provide distinct exit codes for different situations like connection failures or authentication errors. The follow set of exit codes are now possible: · General fatal error o Unix: 202 o Windows, zOS: 1002 · Configuration error o Unix: 220 o Windows, zOS: 1020 · Authentication error o Unix: 223 o Windows, zOS: 1023 · Network/connectivity error o Unix: 224 o Windows, zOS: 1024 |
B-11148 | Linux s390x | All | Update SSL/TLS support to OpenSSL 1.1.1b. |
B-11537 | zOS | UAGSRV | Extend file monitor support for secondary agents in a sysplex environment |
B-11538 | zOS | UAGSRV | Extend “Cancel Job” support for jobs running on any sysplex node |
B-12368 | All | UAGSRV | Remove ability to configure the enable_ssl option. The ability to create an SSL connection with an OMS Server is always enabled. NOTE: The OMS Server’s require_ssl option will ultimately determine whether the connection uses SSL. |
B-12442 | Unix Windows | PKG | Remove the ability to configure the enable_ssl option for UAGSRV at install time. B-12368 delivered a change whereby the ability for UAGSRV to create an SSL connection with an OMS Server is always enabled. |
B-12443 | Solaris | PKG | Change the execution of the zonecfg command to support changes introduced for Solaris 11.4. The install script executes the zonecfg command to determine whether the Agent is being installed in a global zone. |
B-12755 | zOS | UAGSRV | Improve the Agent’s response when a coupling facility encounters a “Structure Full” condition. |
B-12811 | zOS | UAGSRV | Add handling for the SETXCF START,REALLOCATE command. |
B-12884 | All | UDM | Expand the set of characters that a UDM script can support for password values. |
B-12928 B-13265 | Unix Windows | Python | Provide the new and updated external modules list below in the Python Distribution for Universal Agent. Modules are only provided by the Linux Intel RPM and Debian packages and Windows, except where noted. · azure-storage-blob==12.7.1 (All Linux, Windows) · azure-store-blob==12.1.0 (AIX and Solaris only) · cx_Oracle==8.0.1 · hdbcli==2.7.3 · hdfs==2.5.8 · Kubernetes==12.0.1 · pyodbc==4.0.30 Removed from all except AIX and Solaris SPARC: · azure-storage-logging==0.5.1 NOTE: The HP-UX agent install does not provide a Python distribution. |

B-13008 | AIX | PKG | Update the package and installation requirements for the Agent on AIX. The install now requires the following: · AIX 7.1 TL4 or higher · AIX 7.2 TL2 or higher |
B-13106 | All | UBROKER | During local license mapping – when the Broker attempts to read locally-configured license information for licensed components – prevent the error below if the configuration file for a particular component is not found. UNV3380E [1000000001] Error retrieving configuration for product 'xxxx': CFMGetConfigBufferByProdName, 4, configuration name 'xxxx' not found
where ‘xxxx’ is the component name (e.g., uacs). |
D-09177 | All | UFTP | Prevent the error: UNV0106E Invalid value for option ‘pwd’: Missing value When a password starts with a dash (‘-‘). |
D-09193 | Unix Windows | UAGSRV | Ensure that a CREATE file monitor (with stability checking selected) ends if the file is removed. This prevents the file monitor from continuing to run when the file is deleted or moved. |
D-09913 | All | UFTP | Fix handling of comma-separated lists for MGET, MPUT, and MDELETE operations |
D-09994 | All | UBROKER | Ensure that UNV message IDs specified by the msg_suppression_list in ubroker.conf are properly suppressed. |

D-10080 | All | UFTP | Fixes a situation where not every file selected for transfer with an MGET command is transferred. The problem presents as UFTP reporting the file being added to the remote file list, but then not being able to find the file when the transfer starts. The problem was most often – but not exclusively -- seen when an FTP or SSH server is listening on ports other than 21 and 22, respectively. |
D-10093 | zOS | UAGU84 | Prevent a situation in which UAGU84 will receive a S0C4 when UAGRERUN is not APF authorized. |
D-10104 | All | USAP | Fix failure to execute SAP Business Warehouse tasks following licensing updates in UA 6.9.0.0. NOTE: A fix for this is also available in the UA 6.9.0.1 and 6.9.0.2 maintenance releases. |
D-10105 | All | USAP | Prevent SAP InfoPackage job execution from being mistaken as an attempt to run a regular SAP job that uses a model job without the jobid. This fixes an issue introduced in a 6.4.2.x release that eliminated the need for a jobid when running a model job. This change is also available (for all platforms except zOS) in the UA 6.9.0.2 maintenance release. |
D-10153 | zOS | UAGSRV | Prevent UAGSRV from ending with an exit code 18 (ABEND S32E REASON=00000324) at startup when no sysplex_role is specified in UBRCFG00. NOTE: This error can occur even in a non-sysplex environment. |
