    Various internal defects & enhancements:
     1. Add APAR info to version tracker
     2. Add new 761 parts to FEKSETUP
     3. Lock daemon IVP fails due to random trailing x15
     4. Trap all ISPF output in /tmp during debug
     5. ADNCSDAR: missing CRD definition
     6. DEFINE URIMAP in ADNCSDRS had a faulty keyword
     7. CRANDVRA: strip trailing argument blanks & use 4-digit year
     8. Variable plan name in ELAXMJCL
     9. Hang after browse large copybook
    10. Adjust sample JCL for 64bit support
    11. SCLMDT initial populate fails
    12. No error msg when index search fails due to lack of space
    13. 64-bit Java is not supported
    14. Timeout occurs between Daemon and Server processes owing to
        high-CPU usage on system
    15. RSE uses the wrong multiplier for Java heap size calculation
        making the reported size bigger than it is
    16. When enable.standard.log=true is set in rsed.envvars, all
        process file descriptores get used up
    17. When no debug_level is defined in rsecomm.properties, a
        thread pool server can not be started
    18. Display Process Command hangs when there is no thread pool
    19. Enhance Display Process Command to display z/OS UNIX info
    20. Situation where ssl.properties can be read by C program but
        not by Java program
    21. Log files remain open when client disconnects, causing
        UNMOUNT to return EBUSY
    22. Passwords > than 8 characters do not generate error msg
    23. - Uninitialized area was referenced
        - Resource name length check was missing
    24. Opening JES job output in LPEX, you can switch the display
        to hex but the display show ASCII code only.
    25. Parameters are alphabetical, not in the order defined in
        CRADEF VSAM
    26. CARMA Server does not start
        406 error and unexpected characters in log
    27. CARMA does not start for some with ISPF Client Gateway
    28. CARMA Custom parameters limited to approximately 4090 bytes
    29. Add unique RAM identifier
    30. CARMA string length limitations
    31. Page view was introduced so speed up opening large PDS
    32. Data set type check was missing
    33. Catalog error handling was wrong
    34. Buffer overrun occurred while reading a file
    35. Support for DSORG=NONE was added
    36. The data set name was added to the message
    37. C_GET_COPYBOOK not available
    38. Dataset search does not show all matches
    39. New proclib member ELAXFDCL
    40. The CICS Resource Definition server component of Rational
        Developer for System z supports the creation, installation
        and discarding of a subset of CICS resource types but
        URIMAPs are not supported.
    41. When more than one Element has the same name, but different
        type, in the same subsystem, only one of them is displayed
    42. When browsing an element from the CARMA repositories view,
        only the first 200 lines of the element is shown
    43. When an element is being added back to the CA Endevor
        repository from the zOS project, the errors from the
        Generate element are not being shown
    44. The extension that maps to the element type should be able
        to be automatically set at the container level and
        propagated down to the elements
    

Problem conclusion

  • 1. Product is enhanced
     2. Product is enhanced

     4. Product is enhanced
     5. Sample definition is corrected
     6. Sample definition is corrected
     7. Product is corrected
     8. Sample definition is enhanced
     9. Product is corrected

    11. Product is corrected
    12. Create msg when index search fails due to lack of space
    13. Added 64bit Java toleration. Usage of 64bit Java requires
        fix for APAR AM07305.
    14. Increased timeout value
    15. Use correct multiplier for Java heap size calculation
    16. StandardOut and StandardError logs are closed after usage

    20. Ssl.properties is now read by C program only
    21. RDz log files are closed when the client disconnects
    22. Passwords > than 8 characters are validated correctly
    23. Product is corrected

    25. Custom Parameters ordered by action definition in CRADEF
    26. Fix removes erroneous characters, allowing startup
    27. Allow for alternate invocation method
    28. Fix allows for unlimited length of custom parameters
    29. Product is enhanced
    30. Product is enhanced to allow variable length strings
    31. Product is enhanced
    32. Product is corrected
    33. Product is corrected
    34. Product is corrected
    35. Product is enhanced
    36. Product is corrected
    37. Product is corrected
    38. Product is corrected
    39. Product is enhanced
    40. Product is enhanced
    41. A new sub level is added to the display tree for subsystems
        for each element type and the elements for each type are
        shown as subchildren of the type. This means that in the
        display tree, the elements are grouped based on element type
    42. When browsing an element from the CARMA repositories view,
        the whole content of the element is shown in the editor, not
        just the first 200 lines of the element.
    43. When an element is being added back to the CA Endevor
        repository from the zOS project, the errors from the
        Generate element are shown to provide the return code,
        reason code and error message for Generate Element.
    44. The new element type added to the display tree has the
        associated display extension. All elements under the element
        type automatically inherit the extension from the element
        type, which is the parent container.
