Closed as program error.
Error description
When the zOS agents are installed as Binary / Config and upgraded to UCD 7.0.4, the agents get upgraded successfully, but they fail to start after a restart. The encoding of the file in <agent directory>/bin folder is UTF-8, while it should be native encoding (EBCDIC). The environment variables inside the agent file are also not replaced with right values and remain as Tokens. Following is the error that is seen in the UCD Agent Job in spool: BPXM047I BPXBATCH FAILED BECAUSE SPAWN (BPX1SPN) OF <AGENT_HOME>/agent FAILED WITH RETURN CODE 00000082 REASON CODE 0B1B0C27.
Local fix
There is no local fix. The binary agent has to be upgraded again with the patched agent and then the config agents have to be restarted again for them to get upgraded.
