The following is a list of all changes made to the core IBM i Libraries of MDCMS version 8.2 for sub-release 2.
Date | Category | Component | Description |
July 7, 2019 | ENHANCEMENT | MDTransform | For the copy of data from on library to another across partitions, a number of enhancements have been added to ease the administration of limiting records to be copied or column values to transform:
|
ENHANCEMENT | MDCMS | The MDJIRA interface has been enhanced to:
|
|
FIX | MDCMS | Fix creation of Task Type in green screen, when MDWorkflow isn’t licensed | |
July 9, 2019 | ENHANCEMENT | MDCMS | Further enhancements to the Data Copy templates |
July 31, 2019 | ENHANCEMENT | MDCMS | New IC (Installation Complete) object request and RFP status to provide a clear indication of when the target application is free to be used again during the deployment process. RFP cleanup continues while in IC until status 05 (RFP Complete) is reached. If the RFP job abnormally ends while still in IC status, the Close option can be used for the RFP in MDCMS or MDOpen to continue the cleanup phase where it left off. |
ENHANCEMENT | MDCMS | Auto-Rollback an RFP if the copy of data fails, unless a Data Copy command is defined that explicitly ignores exceptions. | |
FIX | MDCMS | Create warning entries in the RFP Deployment Log if an exception occurs during the automatic reapply of constraints and non-SQL triggers | |
FIX | MDCMS | Recompile logicals/views during the deployment phase if they are still based on files in the install library so that they correctly point to files in the application library. | |
FIX | MDCMS | Reapply prior journal attributes when replacing a file and the new version of the file is started for a different journal for the library | |
FIX | MDCMS | avoid conflict when archiving multiple requests for same data group attribute in same RFP when the target table has an SQL long name. | |
FIX | MDCMS | keep reason code of Recompile for a request if sending an object without source (typically an ILE program/Service Program) to a LCL branch. | |
FIX | MDOpen | Include Based-on levels for the source compare when comparing an RFP to a Branch | |
FIX | MDRapid | handle mapping of inserted records in tables that reuse deleted records | |
August 2, 2019 | ENHANCEMENT | MDCMS | Special value *MD can be used for the Project ID in Continuous Integration to extract the Project, Task and Subtask from the Commit message |
FIX | MDCMS | Fix setting of the status for objects to 05 in the Installation History table upon completion of the RFP | |
FIX | MDWorkflow | Fix the Installed RFPs view in MDWorkflow | |
August 10, 2019 | ENHANCEMENT | MDCMS | Allow the send of settings from any level to any defined location, rather than only to locations targeted by the level. |
ENHANCEMENT | MDCMS | Ability to view the committed IFS source for a system/SQL object using option S | |
FIX | MDCMS | Fix RFP Send Listing Object Name filter in green screen | |
FIX | MDCMS | Fix conversion of UTF-8 stream files to source members for compile | |
FIX | MDWorkflow | fix display of install date/time in the MDWorkflow Object Location listing | |
August 17, 2019 | ENHANCEMENT | MDCMS | Ability to distribute RFPs and Attribute Settings via ObjectConnect (SAVRSTOBJ). If ObjectConnect is installed and configured for communication between the source and target system, MDCMS can distribute RFPs and settings using the new method OBJ. This method provides the ability to transfer the information without requiring some form of FTP or SNA to be configured and enabled. |
FIX | MDCMS | Perform an SQL commit after renaming an SQL entitiy to avoid Save while Active issues. | |
August 20, 2019 | FIX | MDCMS | Fix Pre-submit check of objects that have been installed into target level since they were checked out on behalf of the RFP to submit. |
FIX | MDOpen | Fix storing of Filter values in the RFP listing | |
September 7, 2019 | ENHANCEMENT | MDCMS | Db2 Mirror handling – MDCMS automatically handles the inclusion or exclusion of temporary libraries for optimal performance in a Db2 Mirror environment. |
FIX | MDCMS | Fix *JIRA Project/Task mapping for Continuous Integration from Git/SVN | |
FIX | MDOpen | Fix reset of RFP in Status MDRapid in Progress from the MDOpen dialog | |
FIX | MDCMS | Fix deletion of MDRapid temporary libraries upon completion of an RFP | |
FIX | MDCMS | Recursively check if based-on files are in the RFP temporary installation library for logical file creation, in case a based-on file is itself a logical or materialized query table that is based on other files. | |
FIX | MDOpen | Fix setting of Conflict status in RFP Compare with Branch dialog, when the branch source is found in a based-on level rather than a level in the target branch | |
September 25, 2019 | FIX | MDCMS | Allow Delete option from the Pre-Submit warning dialog for related objects when the source isn’t found |
FIX | MDRapid | Correctly display total and copied records for tables containing over a billion records | |
FIX | MDRapid | Improved Time estimation for completion of MDRapid data copy | |
FIX | MDTransform | Fix conditional deletion of records for a Data Copy template file | |
FIX | MDTransform | Fix copy of packaged Data Copy template wildcard to a custom wildcard |
