Object Monitor - Library Replication
This group of PTFs address the following issues:
1. There are two methods of replicating library changes.
Method 1: When a library change (add, rename, delete) is detected by the object monitor 1 (xx_OBJMON1), it will send a send a work request to object monitor 2 (xx_OBJMON2). Object monitor 2 will then perform any necessary database processing sequentially. This is the default and preferred method.
Method 2: The Object monitor 1 can be changed to submit library changes instead of using object monitor 2. Each change will be processed as a separate job. However, if there are multiple changes for the same library then unpredictable results can occur.
To use method 2 perform the following steps:
a. Select menu 10.50.
b. Select option 2 on E2LIBPROC.
c. Change the field 'Base Processing Method' to 'S'.
d. End and restart the xx_OBJMON job or end and restart the iTERA subsystem.
2. After a library is created, the object monitor will detect it and automatically perform a library analysis to retrieve information such as description, library size, and the number of objects. These fields are not required for replication. This data gathering process can perform a temporary lock on the library. This analysis can be bypassed for customers that have a significant number of libraries being created, renamed, and or deleted and where object locks are a concern. If the process is bypassed, this information will not be displayed in menu 4.11 unless the library analyzer is initiated via F18=Submit Library Analyzer.

To make this change perform the following steps:
a. Select menu 10.50.
b. Select option 2 on E2LIBPROC.
c. Change the field 'Perform library analyzer' to 'N'.
d. End and restart the xx_OBJMON job or end and restart the iTERA subsystem.
3. The object monitor used the filter to determine whether objects are to be replicated. This may require the program to retrieve the attribute of an object, which causes a transitory lock on the object. This lock can cause an object to not be deleted, especially for *LIB (libraries). The default has been changed to not retrieve attributes for libraries, unless changed.
Retrieving the attribute is normally not required, except for *DTAARA, *DTAQ, and *FILE types. Changing the data area E2FLTUSE to use the filter data type will change the process to retrieve attributes, if needed. To change the default perform the following:
a. Select menu 10.50.
b. Select option 2 on E2FLTUSE.
c. Do one of the following:
Change the field 'Use filter type data area' to 'Y' to start using the filter processing.
Change the field 'Use filter type - library' to 'N' to always retrieve the attributes of libraries.
d. End and restart the xx_OBJMON job or end and restart the iTERA subsystem.

Audit Console (1.8)
Improved functionality in the Audit Console prevents multiple instances of the same audit from running at the same time. This will reduce processing time and potential audit conflicts.
Audit dependency rules have better restrictions. For example, if the Audit Stream is running, none of the individual audits that it runs can be submitted (e.g., Check Object Match, Database Relations, Journaled Objects, Journaled Objects List, Record Count). Conversely, if any of the audits that the Audit Stream executes are running, then E2AUDSTM cannot be submitted.
Note: If the audit stream (E2AUDSTM) has been modified in E2.CUST, it will need to be updated to reflect the changes. The new source is located in E2.CUSTX.
Jobs from the audit console that had previously been held in order to prevent the duplicate issues from occurring should now be released.
Vision recommends that audits be scheduled in the job scheduler and monitored from the console. Additional details are available in the iTERA HA v6.0 Training Guide.
The current status of an active audit is now displayed.
The current interval for audits that cannot run on the system is no longer displayed.

PTF Description CR #
07 1HA2604 Logical file sync was significantly enhanced in SP7, including the following:
The apply process now ensures that if there are changes or member creates that appear while a logical file is in the process of being resynced that those changes are made when the sync process is complete. Changes (member creation, object level changes, etc.) are held until the logical file has been restored.
A change was made to prevent a logical file resync from being “stuck” in “APLWAT”.
In the past when a RGZPFM with ALWCANCEL(*YES) is specified if the file contained LOBs the attempt to truncate deleted records from the file (F-CE) failed. This has been corrected. (Note that performing a RGZPFM in this manner causes a performance hit because there is a journal entry sent for each record level change made to the file as it is reorganized on the primary system. While RGZPFM can be performed in this manner, it is not recommended.)
Several maintenance issues were addressed, including when a file is deleted the corresponding record is deleted from E2POBJ, and new logical file members are always added to the target.
When a journal entry with incomplete data set is replayed by QDBRPLAY, the function now tests the incomplete data pointer to verify that it is valid. If it is not valid the replay is not attempted and the file is resynced. This change should never come into play, but if it does the program will not fail.

This creates a window where a remote command request could be lost (i.e. the program is ended after the delete of the record but before the request is processed). The alternative would be to not delete the record until after the request has been processed. This could mean that a single request is processed twice (i.e. if the program is ended after it processes the request but before it deletes the record); however, this is better than not processing the request at all.

The iTERA HA Application audit includes the following features:
Provides information about the latest iTERA HA Service Pack release loaded and applied on the system.
Verifies that all iTERA HA, Cross Product, and iTERA Alert PTFs are loaded correctly on the systems (e.g., not in save file status).
Indicates whether there are extra PTFs loaded on the system (e.g. Test PTFs).
Checks to ensure the correct objects exist in the both the base library and the CRG library. If extra objects are discovered, they are noted in the results screen.
The application audit runs on both the Primary and the backup on a weekly basis. Results are accessed via option 1 on the audit on each node.
Full documentation for this new audit is located in the updated iTERA HA v6.0 Reference Guide, available from the Extranet or Knowledgebase.

These PTFs do the following:
1) The audit flag on Dir/Flr will be set to *CHANGE when replication is started.
2) When the IFSMON job gets an instruction that a file needs to be replicated, an IFSMON API (qlgstatvfs64) looks for the file on the primary. If for some reason the file does not exist, then the API sends an error message, which previously would be displayed in the joblog. The error message will now be sent to E2MSGLOG instead.

Journaled Objects Audit (1.8 - JRNOBJJRN)
Additional configuration to the JRNOBJJRN audit was added to the audit to allow the audit to use the exclusions files. This will ignore any objects defined in the exclusions file and allow a file to be journaled on the primary but not on the backup.
NOTE: This is not a recommended procedure and should not and cannot be implemented without assistance from CustomerCare. If the file is not journaled then the file cannot be used as part of a virtual role test. Any manual changes on the target to the file will not be recognized. The file will have to be resynced. Additional manual steps must be performed after the resync. Heal processing will not be performed on the file.

Audit Console (1.6) Application Audit
This is a new audit. This audit is designed to evaluate the object setup of the application's objects.
The audit includes the following tests:
1. Objects (including programs, files, and data areas) that should exist in the iTERA HA libraries.
2. Files that are supposed to have data but do not.
3. Logical files that are linked to the wrong physical file.

This set of PTFs works on four changes.
1. If an object has been changed then the changes do not replicate. Before this change the only way to replicate changes was to manually delete the device on the backup and then quick-sync it again.
2. Provide the ability to replicate *CFGL object types. Due to the overhead required to replicate any *CFGL, they are normally disallowed. To allow replication of *CFGL objects the flag must be turned on in the control screen (F20).
3. Add the ability to perform a SAVCFG and replicate it on the backup every day at a set time.
4. Add the ability to clear the status field on any object. This new option will only be displayed if the experience level is 3 or higher.
