TBSM v4.1.1 IF 007 Available

in Business Service Management, IBM, Implementation, TBSM, Tivoli, Usability

A new IF is available for TBSM v4.1.1 addressing a few new areas (don’t see mine in there!). This depends on IF 001 and supersedes IF 004, 005 and 006. IF 007 can be downloaded here.

These are the new issues addressed:


IZ15914 INCONSISTENT SERVICE NAME TRUNCATIONS IN SERVICE TREE

Service name truncation is not consistent when using the static sizing tool. Many of the service names will truncate, but some do not.

IZ19833(NGF) NEED THE TBSM LOGON SCREEN TO BE ABLE TO ACCEPT MORE THAN 16 CHARACTERS
Integrated authentication works only if the password is short and when a longer password is used it causes the account in Active Directory to be locked.

This APAR increases the allowable length of the password to 127 characters – which is the Active Directory limit.

IZ20375 CREATING CUSTOM CANVASSES USING IE CAUSES HANG WHEN USING DE
When trying to either create a new custom canvas or edit an existing custom canvas, the canvas would fail during loading and the console would show the following error:

[Fatal Error] ServInst.xml:2:64: White spaces are required between
publicId and systemId. Exception in thread “Thread-12”
java.lang.NoSuchMethodError:

IZ24515 UNABLE TO SAVE SERVICE INSTANCES

The customer edits a service and clicks on the dependencies tab when the customer adds or removes dependent services, the change cannot be saved. The save screen will show up when the save button
is pressed, however, it will never go away and changes made are not saved.

IZ26602 PERSISTENT ESDA INSTANCE HAS A PARENT RULE FAILS TO SHOW UP IN
When there are persistent ESDA instances that belong to a template with a parent rule, they will not be displayed at the root of the tree even if they have no actual parents. Thus there will be no way
to see them.

This fix only applies to persistent ESDA instances that has no parents. If you want to enable the old behavior to not show the instances in the root of the tree set the following:

In RAD_sla.props
impact.sla.showesdainstanceswithparentrules=false

The default for this property is true, which will show these instances at the root of the tree.
