    * RECOMMENDATION: All users should install this PTF.           *
    ****************************************************************
    (1) Beginning with service level 5.1.0.6, the IZOA_DBSID
        configuration parameter accepts a 1 to 16 character Db2
        location name or a 4-character Db2 subsystem ID (SSID).
        Specifying a location name for this parameter causes
        problems, because for some uses a subsystem ID is needed.
    
    (2) Error "java.util.NoSuchElementException: None.get" is
        written when training for all systems and subsystems but
        none of the defined systems has a valid time zone specified
        Message AIHV040E should be
        written.
    
    (3) When izoaml.config configuration parameter IZOA_AUTO_EDW is
        set to false, the DDL created for a Db2 for z/OS
        administrator to use to create the enterprise data warehouse
        can contain lines greater than 72 characters in length.
        This can cause problems when uploading to z/OS.
    
    (4) Beginning with service level 5.1.0.7, the Problem Insights
        server did not support subsystems newly added to the
        metric-based machine learning system if the Problem Insights
        server was installed on z/OS UNIX System Services.
    
    (5) In some z/OS environments, one or several of the subsystem
        health  plugins for the Problem Insights server could fail
        due to resource conflicts within the Problem Insights server
        application.
    
    (6) When installed on z/OS UNIX System Services, the Problem
        Insights server supported only two user IDs:
           - One administrative user ID (piadmin)
           - One non-administrative user ID (piuser)
    

Problem conclusion

  • (1) A new metric-based machine learning configuration parameter
        IZOA_DBLOCATION is added for specifying the location name of
        the Db2 for z/OS subsystem that hosts the enterprise data
        warehouse. If this property is set to a value other than
        'none', it will be used to connect to Db2 for z/OS.
        Otherwise the value in IZOA_DBSID will be used to connect to
        Db2 for z/OS.
    
        If you currently have a Db2 for z/OS location name specified
        for the IZOA_DBSID configuration parameter in the izoaml
        .config configuration file, move that value to the
        IZOA_DBLOCATION configuration parameter during the upgrade
        process and change the value of IZOA_DBSID to the Db2 for
        z/OS subsystem ID (SSID) of the Db2 for z/OS subsystem that
        hosts the enterprise data warehouse.
    
        For more information, see the sample izoaml.config file in
        the $IZOA_HOME/samples directory.
    
    (2) Message AIHV040E, which indicated that time zone is missing
        from the subsystem definitions, is replaced by three new
        messages:
        - AIHV059E is used when training for all systems and
          subsystems
        - AIHV060E is used when training for a specific subsystem
        - AIHV061E is used when training for a specific system
    
        For more information, see "Metric-based machine learning:
        base messages" in the documentation.
    
    (3) The DDL is created with lines that are all 72 characters or
        less.
    
    (4) When installed on z/OS UNIX System Services, the Problem
        Insights server and its associated services now provide
        support for all subsystems supported by the metric-based
        machine learning system.The Problem Insights server
        continues to support capabilities that are NOT part of the
        metric-based machine learning system (e.g., z/OS topology,
        log-based machine learning) only when it is installed
        on Linux.
    
    (5) The subsystem health plugins for the Problem Insights server
        have been converted into stand-alone Java applications
        running on z/OS UNIX System Services. This eliminates the
        resource conflicts previously observed within the Problem
        Insights server.
    
    (6) The Problem Insights server on z/OS UNIX System Services is
        now accompanied by the same Keycloak authentication service
        that was previously available only on Linux. This service
        allows the definition of arbitrary numbers of
        administrative and non-administrative user IDs for the
        Problem Insights server. The predefined user IDs shipped
        with the product continue to be 'piadmin' and 'piuser'; both
         use 'changeme' as the default password.
