Agent 7.2.0.0 - March 31, 2022
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-13282 | z/OS | UAGSRV | Add automatic failover support for Agents configured to execute in a sysplex environment. The following items were delivered for UA 7.1.0.0 to support this feature:
Note 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. |
B-13885 | z/OS | UBROKER | Suppress ICH408I messages in the RACF log when running the Broker with a user without BPX.SUPERUSER access. This message is an expected response to a check of authority level, but repeated checks result in several instances of the ICH408I message appear in the log. |
D-08997 | z/OS | UDM | Prevent a S0C4 when executing transfers of UTF16-encoded datasets. |
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-10189 | z/OS | PKG | Fix a problem that prevented the installation of hlq.SUNVSAMP(UBRDBSPZ). |
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-10346 | z/OS | UAGSRV
| Fixes a problem that prevented a zOS CHANGE File Monitor task from storing a renamed dataset’s new name in Universal Control variables. |
D-10426 | z/OS | UBROKER | Fixes a problem that prevented UBROKER startup while loading the UNVACTRT SMF exit. |
D-10474 | z/OS | UCMD
| Prevent a situation in which command line parameters provided via a SYSIN statement were ignored if they followed a password on the same line. For example, given the following:
The -level option would be ignored unless moved to a separate line: |
