  • TCPIP Monitor now supports adding entries to the SLA Audit Log.

Fixes
  • A Message Queue "Not received" Period Rule which starts after midnight but ends at 23:59 does not raise the final alert, up to midnight, because the End Time needs to be set to 00:00. The associated help text has been clarified and a new warning message is displayed within Work with Rules to highlight this.

  • An existing CONSOLE Action to an *I5 Sub-Console would not remove the name of the Sub-Console if it was amended to a *PC Console which resulted in the Action failing. This has been corrected.

  • End Subsystem Availability (ENDSBSAVL) would fail. This has been corrected.

  • If a partition only had one QHST* file when Message Queue Monitor was started, it would fail to attach it for monitoring. This has been corrected.

  • Message Communicator was removing the contents of the temporary work folder in the IFS but not the work folder itself after successfully sending an email. This has been corrected.

  • Work with Message Sub-Consoles (WRKMSGCON) no longer fails if you attempt to edit a Sub-Console in some situations.

  • Work with Rules was incorrectly allowing a Message Queue Rule to be saved with Message File Library set to *LIBL. This has been corrected.

  • Work with Rules was incorrectly notifying the Message Monitor that a newly added Rule Group for a message queue on an IASP was in *SYSBAS. Although the Rule Group was correctly saved, Message Monitor incorrectly looked on *SYSBAS, could not find the queue and so refused to monitor the queue until either the Rule Group was Held/Released or the Monitor was restarted. This has been corrected.

  • Message Queue Global Exclusions now auto-export with the correct status.

  • Message Monitor no longer fails if message data is longer than 1024 characters.
