PH55946: WAZI DEPLOY V3.0 (ZMODSTACK V2023.2.1) : USER ID PRECEDED WITH " {' " WHEN USING -DEPLOY TO A CICS REGION

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• When running command wazideploy -deploy to deploy some updated
  load modules into a CICS region, it gets to the step where CICS
  is called via CMCI interface, and where it passes a userid and
  password on that API call.
  This failed with the following message :
  ICH408I USER({'xxxxxx) GROUP( ) NAME(??? )
  LOGON/JOB INITIATION - USER AT TERMINAL NOT RACF-DEFINED
  where xxxxx is the user ID.
  However this user ID is preceded with a " {' "  string that
  provokes the error.

  ****************************************************************
  1.When the build engineer wants to provide a password for a CICS
    building block the Wazi Deploy Translator failed
  2.Installation of the Wazi Deploy Python module requires the
    Python jsonschema library. The latest version of this library
    requires that the Rust compiler is installed, and will fail
    the Wazi Deploy install.
  3.Enhancement to provide IMS building blocks in Wazi Deploy
    - Update ACBLIB with dbd & psb artefacts : ims_acb_gen
    - Read and/or update IMS catalog with dbds and psbs :
      ims_catalog_populate
    - Analyze and/or purge dbds and psbs from catalog :
      ims_catalog_purge
    - Launch IMS commands : ims_command
    - Submit DBRC command to manage RECON data sets  : ims_dbrc
    - Build and compile MFS: ims_mfsutl
  4.Wazi Deploy packager command line now supports the Nexus
    repository manager
  5.With the new version of Wazi Deploy an evidence requester is
    available to audit the evidences produced during the
    deployment process. It analyzes the contents of the evidence
    files that are created at the end of each deployment. The
    requester involves a query language and a command. You use the
    Wazi Deploy query language, which involves YAML or Jinja2
    coding, to specify the extraction criteria and how you want to
    print the result. Then, you use the new wazideploy-evidence
    CLI command to start the analysis.
  

Problem conclusion

• 1.This is fixed in this release.
  2.The workaround is to install an old version of the Python
    module jsonschema. We have adjusted requirements to not be
    dependent on the latest versions of the upstream jsonschema
    library.
