Error description

  • Application Discovery:
    - When you create an application and select an object, its
       child objects are selected automatically.
     - You cannot add implicit sequences to applications.
    
    Application and Instance Management:
     - Fixed an issue handling user instance limits when working
       with multiple environments.
     - The Admin team can now access the Manage tab.
     - You can search for teams while provisioning instances.
     - The Admin team can de-provision team instances.
     - You can no longer include cast functions in application
       definitions.
     - Added support for applying site rules to databases,
       tablespaces, tables, indices, and stored procedures.
    
    DDL Management:
     - On the Edit DDL & SQL page, the Revert and Revert All buttons
       are disabled by default.
    
    Installation:
     - Added a field to the DevOps set up wizard for users to enter
       a name for a data set that will contain artifacts created
       when a DevOps user registers a Db2 subsystem. The value is
       stored in a cmbatchDsn parameter in configuration.yaml, and
       administrators can edit it there.
     - Added four ISPF library parameters to the configuration.yaml
       file. Previously, these values were hard-coded. In
       configuration.yaml, they are editable.
    
    Pull Requests:
    - Fixed issue where the IDs of de-provisioned instances were
      displaying in the Past Activity UI.
    
    Cosmetic Changes:
    - Fixed a UI issue with overlapping objects in the "Edit DDL &
      SQL" page.
    
    Miscellaneous:
    - In the Administrator's Guide appendix, added a JCL script that
      you can run to configure DevOps security.
    - In the Administrator's Guide, added a topic, "Granting catalog
      and bufferpool access" with a DCL script that you can run to
      grant to PUBLIC the use of all bufferpools and also SELECT
      access on Db2 catalog tables (except SYSIBM.USERNAMES). This
      is required before you install DevOps.
    - In the Administrator's Guide topic "Authorizing libraries and
      programs in APF," added instructions for providing APF
      authorization for the SDOELINK and SDOELLIB libraries.
    - In the Administrator's Guide, simplified and clarified some
      installation topics.
    - Updated the Swagger documentation.
