Agent 7.5.0.4 - March 12, 2024

Change ID	Platforms	Component	PTF	Description
D-12304	z/OS	UAGSRV	PS36010	Improves threading support for some OpenSSL functions to prevent UAG Server unexpected terminating with an exit code 8 or an 0C4 ABEND.

Description

z/OS

UAGRERUN
UAGU84
UAGUSI

PS36007
PS36008
PS36009

Resolves unexpected behavior for a z/OS task, under the following conditions:

The z/OS task contains a Step Condition that is defined treat an ABEND as an expected result, by specifying an action of Continue/Success
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.

Agent 7.5.0.1 - December 12, 2023

Change ID	Platforms	Component	PTF	Description
D-11889	All	OMSSRV UAGSRV UBROKER UCMSRV UCTSRV UDMSRV UEMSRV	N/A PS36001 PS36002 PS36003 PS36004 PS36005 N/A	Changes the message digest used to sign internally-created self-signed certificates from SHA1 to SHA256 to prevent UC-OMS connection failures on newer Linux distributions.

Agent 7.5.0.0 - October 13, 2023

Change ID	Platforms	Component	Description
B-11499	All	OMSSRV UAGSRV UBROKER UCMD UCMSRV UCTL UCTSRV UDM UDMSRV UEM UEMSRV UFTP UQUERY UPPS USAP	Provides changes that: Adds operating system name and version to the Universal Query Report heading, and Adds operating system name and version to header information contained Universal Agent component trace files.
B-17449	All	UBROKER	Revisit changes previously delivered by B-14668 in Universal Agent 7.3.0.0. That delivery provided the ability to automatically recover a Universal Broker database that failed validation at startup. However, to provide backward compatibility, that feature was not enabled by default and had to be manually configured across the enterprise with the Universal Broker RECREATE_DATABASES configuration option. The UA 7.5.0.0 release provides the following changes to the automatic Broker database recovery feature: The RECREATE_DATABASES configuration option is deprecated. Automatic recovery now occurs by default for those databases that fail a validation which may occur at Broker startup. This validation is triggered whenever the databases weren't properly closed during shutdown of the previous Broker instance. Affected databases include: `bcomponent.db` `scomponent.db` `ues.db` `uems.db` By default, the Broker creates a copy of any database that fails validation. The Broker then removes the corrupted database and recreates it so that Broker startup may proceed. The number of database copies is controlled by a new DB_FILE_GENERATIONS configuration option. The default value of that option is 3. Database archival can be turned off by setting the value of the option to 0 (zero). The intent of the updated behavior is to improve Agent resiliency and recoverability while retaining some ability to manage these database files.
B-17520	z/OS	UAGSRV	Add the ability to edit JCL in a zOS task's JCL Location or JCL Override Location directly from the Controller.
B-17521	z/OS	UAGSRV	Add Agent support to zOS tasks for Controller Task Simulations. Any symbols that are defined in the JCL will be resolved when the simulation is run.
B-17523	z/OS	UAGSRV	Provide the ability to dynamically add or override the USER keyword on a JOB Statement using the new UAG Server configuration option ZOS_JOB_USER.
B-17755	z/OS	UAGSRV	Add Agent support for the new Trigger on Create option for Change file monitors. This allows a zOS agent to look for dataset creations or changes from the same file monitor task instance.
D-11174	All	UCMD UCTL UEM UFTP	Prevent an error when the value of the `-`pwd option contains a single space (e.g., `-pwd " "`).
D-11189	All	OMSSRV UAGSRV UBROKER UCMD UCMSRV UCTL UCTSRV UDM UDMSRV UFTP	Update the OpenSSL library used by Universal Agent components to 1.1.1u. NOTE: The OpenSSL library used for the Universal Agent for HP-UX distribution was not updated.
D-11226	z/OS	UFTP	Fixes an error that causes transfers across z/OS systems to fail when using the SFTP protocol.
D-11229	All	UCMD UCTL UDM UEM UENCRYPT UFTP	Fixes a "checksum mismatch" error when a Universal Encrypted file is decrypted and one of the comment lines inserted into the file exceeds 80 characters.
D-11353	All	UFTP UPPS	Update the libcURL library used by Universal Agent components to 7.88.1 for Unix/Windows and 7.81.0 for zOS. NOTE: The libcURL library used for the Universal Agent for HP-UX distribution was not updated.
D-11362	z/OS	UAGSRV	Fixes a problem that may cause an extra USER= parameter to get added to the JCL's job card created for a File Transfer task.
D-11392	z/OS	UAGSRV	Prevent an error when a z/OS task is rerun under the following conditions: the task's JCL is pulled from the specified JCL Override Library, and a JCLLIB statement is manually inserted within JCL statements that UAG Server generates and inserts into the JCL
D-11411	z/OS	UCMD UCTL UEM UFTP USAP	Fixes a problem introduced in UA 7.3.0.0 that prevents Universal Agent components from reading a plain-text command file specified with the -f / -file option in a job's SYSIN.
D-11413	z/OS	UDM UDMSRV	Fixes a situation in which a UDM file transfer will fail if an attempt is made to allocate a zOS dataset with an EXPDT equal to one of the following special values: 00000 - allocate the dataset with no expiration date 98000 - used by some tape management systems control when datasets are uncataloged and tape volumes become available for re-use 99000 - used by some tape management systems control when datasets are uncataloged and tape volumes become available for re-use 99365 - allocate the dataset so that it never expires 99366 - allocate the dataset so that it never expires When none of the above 5-digit values are used, UDM will still expect a 7-digit expiration date as it did prior to this change.
D-11424	z/OS	UAGU83	Fixes a problem where an ABEND within the UAGU83 SMF exit module could cause RMF to terminate with an S0C1.
D-11439	z/OS	UBROKER	Fixes a problem that may cause the Universal Broker's COMPONENT_START to fail on z/OS when System SSL is used
D-11521	z/OS	INSTALL	Fixes an installation error in which the sample UAGRRPRC mentioned in user documentation (to support configurable UAGRERUN handling) is missing from SUNVSAMP following a 7.4.0.0 or 7.4.1.0 installation.
