Temporary fix

Comments

  • CICS now supports running Node.js applications using IBM SDK for
    Node.js - z/OS v8.  CICS no longer supports IBM SDK for
    Node.js - z/OS v6.
    
    The following other improvements have been made:
    - Changes to sample Node.js profiles to reflect recommended
    practices for using include files containing system-wide
    configuration. The following CICS Knowledge Center page will be
    updated to reflect this:
    https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/en/SSGMCP_5.5.0/
    applications/deploying/node-ivp.html
    
    - Enhancements to dump formatting of the NODEJSAPP control block
    
    - Fixed a problem that caused NODEJSAPP resource statistics to
    be corrupted when the NODEJSAPP was DISABLED
    
    - Fixed uppercase folding of the BUNDLE field of the NODEJSAP
    CICSPlex SM resource table when used in CRITERIA expressions
    
    The CICS Knowledge Center will also be updated with the
    description of new message DFHSJ1313
    
    DFHSJ1313 date time applid userid tranid NDOEJSAPP "nodejsapp"
    was disabled because an unsupported version of
    IBM SDK for Node.js - z/OS was used. CICS requires version
    "requiredVersion" but found version "foundVersion".
    
    Explanation:
    A NODEJSAPP has been disabled because a version of IBM SDK for
    Node.js - z/OS that is not supported by CICS was found.
    
    System Action:
    The NODEJSAPP resource is placed in disabled state; the Node.js
    process may have captured additional diagnostics.
    
    User Action:
    Correct NODE_HOME in the Node.js profile to specify a supported
    version of IBM SDK for Node.js - z/OS
    
    Module: DFHSJNA
