Error description

  • IBM Explorer for z/OS 3.1.1.3 does not import data set members
when using a wildcard in the HLQ portion in the z/OS connect
feature.

Steps to reproduce :

1) Open the z/OS perspective
2) Connect an RSE connection
3) In the Data Set view, type in a data set filter using
a wildcard in the HLQ portion (i.e. "USER*.JCL")
4) Open a data set member
5) When querying from the data set view, the HLQ contains the
wildcard and any member is found.

Local fix

  • Avoid to use wildcard in the HLQ portion

Problem summary

  • IBM Explorer for z/OS 3.1.1.1 does not import data set members
when using a wildcard in the HLQ portion in the z/OS connect
feature.

Problem conclusion

  • When a wildcard is used in the HLQ to download members via the
RSE-bridge for host connections, a folder with a wildcard is
created to store the temp files which causes the import
problems.
