Agent 7.5.0.20 - August 12, 2025
| Change Id | Platform | Component | PTF | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| D-12560 | Unix Windows z/OS | UFTP | PS36062 | Update the libSSH2 3pp vendor library used by UFTP to remediate Critical- and High-severity CVEs. |
| D-13077 | Unix | UFTP | PS36062 | Fixes an issue for transfers to or from an IBM i FTP Server, where UFTP attempts to issue LIB file system commands for a location outside the Library file system. |
| D-13676 | z/OS | UAGSRV | PS36061 | Prevent an 0C4 abend that could occur in UAGSRV as it evaluates the memory allocated for some JCL SET parameters. |
Agent 7.5.0.19 - July 8, 2025
| Change Id | Platform | Component | PTF | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| D-09780 | Unix Windows z/OS | UBROKER | PS36060 | Prevents a Universal Broker crash following successful Manager Fault Tolerant (MFT) recovery of a UCMD Manager task. In this situation, recovery processing was successful. The crash occurred as the Broker cleaned up tracking records stored in its BerkeleyDB database files. |
| D-13578 | z/OS | UAGSRV | PS36059 | Ensure that the UAG Server's configured CODE_PAGE is honored during OMS message processing. Specifically, this fix addresses a problem with z/OS Task parameter translation when the z/OS system environment is configured to use a codepage other than IBM1047 (UAG Server's default codepage). The problem applies to the following situation:
Prior to this fix, the parameter's name and value would always be translated from UTF8 to IBM1047, even if the UAG Server's configured codepage were set to something other than IBM1047. With this fix, UAG Server will now honor its configured codepage and translate the parameter name and value accordingly. The default is still IBM1047. Note that a similar defect, D-13592, is provided for this release that fixes translation of parameters used for JCL variable substitution. These are parameters whose names start with *@. Possibility of Breaking Change Exercise care before doing the SMP/E ACCEPT of this PTF. If any work-arounds exist that rely on a task parameter's name or value always being translated as IBM1047, they will no longer work if the CODE_PAGE option is set in UAGCFG00 to something other than IBM1047. For example, the at symbol ('@') has a UTF8 encoding of 0x0040. Its IBM1047 encoding is 0x7C. Its IBM1141 encoding is 0xB5. Prior to this fix, it the z/OS system's configured codepage were IBM1141, the '@' symbol in a task parameter name or value had to be replaced with a section sign ('§'). This would force the UTF8-to-IBM1047 translation to produce an encoding of 0xB5. When viewing the SET statement that UAG Server adds to the task's JCL, the value would be shown as '@' as expected. With this change, you can now set the CODE_PAGE option in UAGCFG00 to IBM1141 and use the '@' symbol in the task parameter. The work-around described above is no longer needed. If you choose to leave such work-arounds in place, simply make sure the UAG Server's CODE_PAGE option in UAGCFG00 is undefined or set to IBM1047. If all of your task parameter names and values are inserted into the JCL's SET statements correctly today (that is, without any work-arounds), then you do not need to do anything after applying this fix. Everything will continue to work as it does today. |
| D-13592 | z/OS | UAGSRV | PS36060 | Ensure that the UAG Server's configured CODE_PAGE is honored during OMS message processing. Specifically, this fix addresses a problem with z/OS Task parameter translation when the z/OS system environment is configured to use a codepage other than IBM1047 (UAG Server's default codepage). The problem applies to the following situation:
If your z/OS system's codepage is configured with one of the above codepages, this fix will provide the ability to retain the '@' symbol in the task parameter definition and your z/OS task's JCL. Prior to this fix, the parameter would always be translated from UTF8 to IBM1047, even if the UAG Server's configured codepage were set to something other than IBM1047. With this fix, UAG Server will now honor its configured codepage and translate the '@' symbol correctly. The default is still IBM1047. Note that a similar defect, D-13578, is provided for this release that fixes translation of parameters used for JCL SET statements. Possibility of Breaking Change Exercise care before doing the SMP/E ACCEPT of this PTF. If any work-arounds exist in your JCL to replace the '@' variable with a symbol that will match the IBM1047 encoding for '@' AND the CODE_PAGE option is set in your UAGCFG00 to something other than IBM1047, the work-around will no longer work. For example, the at symbol ('@') has a UTF8 encoding of 0x0040. Its IBM1047 encoding is 0x7C. Its IBM1141 encoding is 0xB5. Prior to this fix, it the z/OS system's configured codepage were IBM1141, the '@' symbol could not be used in your JCL. The '@' had to be replaced with a section sign ('§') This would force the UTF8-to-IBM1047 translation to produce an encoding of 0xB5, which allowed UAG Server to find the variables in the JCL and replace them with the values of the task's parameters. With this change, you can now set the CODE_PAGE option in UAGCFG00 to IBM1141 and use the '@' symbol in your JCL (assuming your z/OS system's codepage is IBM1141). The work-around described above is no longer needed. This is true for any of the codepages listed above, provided the configured CODE_PAGE in UAGCFG00 matches the codepage set for your z/OS environment. If you choose to leave such work-arounds in place, simply make sure the UAG Server's CODE_PAGE option in UAGCFG00 is undefined or set to IBM1047. If all of the variables in your z/OS task's JCL start with '@' and are translated correctly today (that is, without any work-arounds), then you do not need to do anything after applying this fix. Everything will continue to work as it does today. |

No z/OS changes were delivered for the Universal Agent 7.5.0.18 maintenance release.
Agent 7.5.0.17 - May 13, 2025
| Change Id | Platform | Component | PTF | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| D-12016 | Unix | UCMD UCMSRV UDM UDMSRV UFTP | PS36057 PS36058 PS36054 PS36055 PS36056 | Library dependencies updated due to vulnerabilities. |
| D-12785 | All | UAGSRV UCMD UCMSRV UDM UDMSRV UFTP | PS36053 PS36057 PS36058 PS36054 PS36055 PS36056 | Improve data security by making sure all references to sensitive data are cleared before the memory holding that data is freed. Note that no memory was leaked nor was any sensitive data exposed prior to this change. This change applies to the way in which the Universal Agent applications are built. Some compilers may "skip" a call to clear memory in situations where that that memory is immediately freed in the next statement. This is an undesirable optimization, and this change prevents the call to clear the memory from being skipped. |
| D-13270 | All | UAGSRV | PS36053 | Fixes a problem where a Universal Broker started with the command line option -dest stderr failed to honor the UAGLOGLVL environment variable. |
Agent 7.5.0.16 - April 8, 2025
| Change Id | Platform | Component | PTF | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| D-01220 | All | UBROKER | PS36050 | Ensure that the function responsible for removing records from the Universal Event Subsystem (UES) database processes always processes 1000 records with each iteration. Previously, the function always deleted the first 1000 records, causing the removal of subsequent records to be delayed. |
| D-13141 | z/OS | UDM UDMSRV | PS36051 PS36052 | Provides a new z/OS-specific UDM script attribute "lbi" to enable or disable the Large Block Interface (LBI) for transfers to prevent the corruption of datasets with RECFM=U. Previously, LBI support was enabled for all transfers, but this caused records shorter than the dataset's block size to be padded with 0x0 characters, which corrupted the output dataset. This change disables LBI by default, and makes it possible to re-enable it with lbi=yes. |
Agent 7.5.0.15 - March 11, 2025
| Change ID | Platforms | Component | PTF | Description |

| D-13209 | z/OS | UDM | PS36047 PS36048 | Fixes a problem that prevented UDM from correctly obtaining allocation attributes for an input GDG dataset specified using a relative name (i.e., with the generation number in parentheses). That information is now available as the default allocation attributes for the target dataset. |

Agent 7.5.0.0 - October 13, 2023
Change ID | Platforms | Component | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| B-11499 | All | OMSSRV | Provides changes that:
|
| 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 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 | 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:
|
| 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:
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. |
