  ****************************************************************
  01.When selecting multiple elements, only the first element is
     processed for custom actions.
  02.This enhancement provides a new user exit point in Developer
     for z Systems, and a sample exit, that allows customers to
     alter data set names used during communication with CA
     Endevor SCM(R). This enhancement also allows the usage of
     variable data set names during CA Endevor SCM batch actions.
     More details are in the hold information and updated Host
     Configuration Guide.
  03.When the CARMA server takes too long to complete its startup
     sequence on very busy systems, the CARMA connection manager
     is not waiting long enough, and generates an error to
     indicate that the server takes too long to get started. This
     causes intermittent failures, regardless of the
     connect.timeout setting.
  

Problem conclusion

• 01.The IBM IDz Endevor integration has been changed to properly
     handle multiple element selections for custom actions.
  02.This enhancement provides a new user exit point in Developer
     for z Systems, and a sample exit, that allows customers to
     alter data set names used during communication with CA
     Endevor SCM(R). This enhancement also allows the usage of
     variable data set names during CA Endevor SCM batch actions.
  03.The IBM IDz Endevor integration has been changed to set the
     default value of the startup.no.timeout parameter to Yes.
     This forces connection manager to wait until the starter
     ends. The starter honors connect.timeout set by the
     customer.
