New features and Enhancements
  • Supported the Linux environment when using IBM AD Configuration Wizard for clean installations.
  • Added the following capabilities in IBM AD Configuration Server:
    • Monitor tab: On this new tab, you can now monitor the status and export the log files of IBM AD components with a graphical representation of the components and their dependencies. Also, you can monitor the running status of projects. For more information, see Monitoring the Statuses of Components and Projects.
    • Language settings: You can select the language menu from the upper-right corner and choose one of the available languages. The entire configuration process is displayed in the selected language.
    • Remote access: You can access IBM AD Configuration Server that is installed on a different machine by modifying the audit.properties configuration file. For more information, see Configuring by using IBM AD Configuration Service.
  • Added the following capabilities in IBM AD Connect for Mainframe:
    • Supported TLS connection to IBM AD Validation Server. For more information, see the configuration instructions for IBM AD Validation Server and for IBM AD Connect for Mainframe.
    • Supported remote connection to IBM Workload Scheduler (IWS, previously known as TWS). You can configure to use a local IWS connection when the IWS controller is installed on the same LPAR, by default, or to use the newly supported remote IWS connection when the IWS controller is running on a different LPAR. For more information, see Enabling TCP/IP Connection to a Remote IWS Controller Address Space.
    • Supported FBA PDS libraries.
    • Added REXX support for IWS data sets.
    • Replaced the CPE communication layer for IBM AD Validation Server.
  • Added the following capabilities in IBM ADDI Extension:
    • Code Coverage analysis: You can now analyze the source code coverage, identify the test coverage issues, and get recommendations on the test cases to run to optimize your test coverage results.
    • Performance analysis: This function supports the analysis of OMEGAMON for CICS data and System Management Facility data. By analyzing the performance data, you can identify the potential performance issues.
  • Improved the COBOL Variable Usage tab in IBM AD Analyze, where the variables that are declared in COBOL Copybooks/INCLUDES can be identified. The Include names are displayed in parentheses. For more information, see COBOL Variable Usage.
  • Boosted the CA7 import performance in IBM AD Build. Less processing time is used when the CA7 report is retrieved from the mainframe.
  • Enhanced the Natural parser to reduce syntax errors and to improve the Natural analysis.
