Error description
On Rational Developer for System z v9.1.1.1, APARs PI32078/PI32356 still reproducible. TSO shell incorrectly translates "<" and ">" to "<" AND ">", the fix is not complete Re-creation steps: 1 - Define a REXX file, say 'USER.REXX(MEMBER)', with the following lines: /** REXX **/ say "<abc>" 2 - In RDz client, from the RSE view, open the TSO Shell view. 3 - Execute that procedure by issuing the following command: exec 'USER.REXX(MEMBER)' The TSO command result will be '<abc>' instead of '<abc>'

Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: 01.All RDz users * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: 01.RDz TSO shell incorrectly translates * * "<" and ">" strings to "<" and * * ">". * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** 01.RDz TSO shell incorrectly translates "<" and ">" strings to "<" and ">".
Problem conclusion
01.RDz client is updated to escape '&' and ';' characters, before the input string is encoded in xml data and is sent to server. RDz server is updated to unescape '&' and ';' characters, after the received xml data is decoded. Only if both client and server can handle them, they are actually escaped.
