New features and enhancements
Zowe Version 2.10.0 contains the enhancements that are described in the following topics.
Zowe installation and packaging
- Added a new zwe
diagnose
command to get help on zowe error messages. (#3455)
Zowe Application Framework
Zowe API Mediation Layer
- The API Catalog now allows pre-defined style customizations. (#2965)
Zlux App Server
- Migrated app-server configuration options into a
defaults.yaml
file which adheres to the schema of the Zowe config. This allows users to see the default behaviors more clearly and can serve as an example by which users can customize their Zowe config to override such defaults. (#247)
Zlux Server Framework
- Avoid going directly to the Desktop when the gateway is active, by redirecting to the gateway equivalent homepage when the homepage is accessed. The redirect behavior can be prevented if desired by using the query parameter
?zwed-no-redirect=1
in your URL. (#449)
Zowe Common C
- The
configmgr
can now use thezos
module in YAML config templates. Thezos
module is only added when run on zOS. For a list of available functions, see this link. (#384)
Zowe CLI
Zowe CLI Imperative Framework
- Performed back-end preparation for the upcoming
ZOWE_V3_ERR_FORMAT
environment variable to enable the ability to display errors in a more reader-friendly format. (Zowe CLI #935)
Bug fixes
Zowe Version 2.10.0 contains the bug fixes that are described in the following topics.
Zowe Application Framework
Zlux App Server
- Fixed the URLs that app-server would print in the logs describing where it was accessible from. Messages were incorrectly providing URLs indicating the app-server’s location from the discovery server instead of the gateway server. (#247)
Zlux App Manager
- Fixed a timing issue with the
iframe-adapter
for Firefox. (#532)
ZSS
- Datasets with
VOLSER
set to anMVS
symbol would cause dataset read, write, and metadata API calls to fail for those datasets. It is fixed now.(#603) - Previously, the
zss/datasetMetadata
API could encounter an0C9-09
error when accessing a dataset with 0 block size. This is fixed. Now it does not have an error while accessing such datasets. (#606)
Zowe Common C
configmgr
parsing ofYAML
toJSON
has been updated to 1024 characters to allow for up to max unix path strings. Earlier it was limited to 256 characters for strings. (#383)
