What's new in version 9.0.18.100
The following sections describe the new features in Control-M 9.0.18 Fix Pack 1 (version 9.0.18.100):
Control-M Application Pack
NOTE: Application Pack must be deployed in order for the following capabilities to be available.
All Control-M Application Plug-ins that are included in Control-M Application Pack (Control-M for Hadoop, Control-M for Databases, Control-M for Backup, and Control-M Application Integrator) now support the following IBM PowerPC operating systems:
- SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 12 LE
- Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.2 LE
Control-M Application Integrator
You can now use the same runtime parameter name in several locations in the Application Integrator designer, each time with a different value.
Control-M for Databases
Microsoft SQL Server 2017 support has been added.
Control-M for Hadoop
- Rerun from point of failure of OOZIE workflows to minimize the execution duration and save on cluster resources
- Amazon EMR verification on Linux
- MapR version 6.x verification
- Sqoop jobs to support JCEKS files. These files allow storing essential value pairs that are used in SSL/HTTPs configurations and provide better key store password protection
- Control-M for Hadoop is now part of Control-M Application Pack
Automation API
The following capabilities and enhancements were introduced in this version:
File Watcher Job Type
File Watcher job type is now supported through Jobs-as-Code, enabling developers and DevOps engineers to consume the FileWatcher through various APIs, such as build, Deploy, Run, and many others.
AAPI Query language extended with additional criteria
“Jobs:Status get” now supports many additional search criteria and extends the search result record with additional information. Some of the new criteria are:
- "OrderDate"
- "Controlm"
- "Description"
- "Host"
- "Application"
- "SubApplication"
- "TimeFrom" & "TimeTo"
- "Hostgroup"

- "WorkloadPolicy"
Additional enhancements were focused on the extension of the Automation API JSON notation. Some of these enhancements include:

- Adding SMART Folder “AdjustEvent” attributes through JSON
- Enable searching for specific text in job outputs
- Support of MEMNAME and MEMLIB in "Non-Script" job types
- Support of Rule Base Calendars over Jobs-as-Code
