    The fix for this APAR provides:
     - z/VM V7.1 toleration support for zSecure Collect for z/VM so
       that no MSGCKV157I which begins with the text "Unsupported VM
       release..." is issued.
     - zSecure Manager for RACF z/VM reports a '7.1' value in the
       OSLVL field (newlist/report type SYSTEM) when processing
       data from z/VM V7.1.
    

Problem conclusion

Temporary fix

Comments

  • zSecure Collect for z/VM has been modified to provide the basic
    toleration support for z/VM V7.1. zSecure Manager for RACF z/VM
    has been modified to report a proper OSLVL field value when
    processing the z/VM V7.1 data.
