  • 1.  zSecure Admin 3.1.1

    Posted Thu October 31, 2024 10:57 AM

    This on behalf of one of my clients.

    Client successfully applied PTF's for APAR's 

    OA66990 (HCKR310) - zSecure 3.1.0 SSE (October 2024) - Base

    OA67129 (HCKR310): zSecure 3.1.0 SSE (October 2024) - Base

    OA66993 (HC4R310): zSecure Command Verifier (base)

    OA66994 (JC4R310): zSecure Command Verifier

    Starting zSecure still reveals Version 3.1.0

    zSecure opening screen

    Also V 3.1.1 cannot be ordered in Shopz.

    Is this intentional?

    Regards

    Hi Franco,

    Yes, it is.

    The only component that in fact identifies itself as 3.1.1 is the new Web UI plug-in, everything else still shows as 3.1.0.

    The reason for having a zSecure Admin 3.1.1 was introducing this Web UI component, which only applies to that product.

    The ISPF interface and the CARLa engine etc. are all shared with other components, such as zSecure Audit, that remain at 3.1.0.

    In the announcement we stated:

    "Some Security zSecure Suite products are updated to 3.1.1 and others remain at 3.1.0. In zSecure Admin 3.1.1, and the solution packages that include it, a graphical user interface is added. The GUI provides a subset of the functions that are available in the ISPF user interface. All other components continue to identify themselves as 3.1.0. "

    Best regards,
