Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All OMEGAMON Data Provider users. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: OMEGAMON Data Broker: * * - OMEGAMON Data Provider now supplies * * the Zowe cross-memory server from * * Zowe 2.12.0. * * OMEGAMON Data Connect: * * - Now requires Java 17, or later, * * 64-bit edition. * **************************************************************** OMEGAMON Data Broker and OMEGAMON Data Connect both depend on underlying software. In both cases, the version of that underlying software has been raised: - OMEGAMON Data Broker is a plug-in for the Zowe cross-memory server. Previously, OMEGAMON Data Provider supplied the server from Zowe 1.28.2. To take advantage of new server features, such as dynamic version checking for plug-in compatibility, OMEGAMON Data Broker requires a server from a more recent version of Zowe. OMEGAMON Data Provider now supplies the server from Zowe 2.12.0. If you are an existing user of OMEGAMON Data Provider, then you must upgrade your OMEGAMON Data Broker configuration to use the newer server. This upgrade includes editing the server PARMLIB configuration member to refer to a new plug-in, ZISDYNAMIC, supplied as load module TKANMODP(KAYSISDL). - OMEGAMON Data Connect is a Java application developed using the Spring Boot framework. Previously, OMEGAMON Data Connect used a version of Spring Boot that is based on Java 8. That version of Spring Boot has an end of support date of 24 November 2023. To continue to take advantage of ongoing Spring Boot support, including fixes and new features, OMEGAMON Data Connect now uses a more recent version of Spring Boot that is based on Java 17. If you are an existing user of OMEGAMON Data Provider, then you must upgrade the Java runtime environment that you use for OMEGAMON Data Connect to Java 17, or later, 64-bit edition. Other enhancements: - OMEGAMON Data Broker: - New MODIFY command to dynamically set the logging level while OMEGAMON Data Broker is running. Previously, you had to set the logging level in the configuration member, and then restart the Zowe cross-memory server that runs OMEGAMON Data Broker. - OMEGAMON Data Connect: - Each output, including each TCP sink and each HTTP endpoint, now has its own internal queue. Previously, all outputs shared a single internal queue. If a destination for one output was connected to OMEGAMON Data Connect but not accepting data (for example, because it was out of space), then all outputs were blocked, and no destinations received data. Now, issues with the destination of one output do not affect other outputs. - Kafka output now supports truststore and keystore SSL parameters that refer to RACF key rings.
Problem conclusion
