BMC Software is releasing patch PACTV.9.0.21.002 to correct several problems in Control-M/Server 9.0.21.000 for UNIX and Windows.
Corrected Problems
The following table describes the corrected problems that are fixed in PACTV.9.0.21.002:
Tracking number | Description |
---|---|
CTM-7515 | A cyclic job stops cycling. The job remains in ‘Wait Time’ state and is not submitted, even though all its perquisites are met. For more information see Knowledge Article 000403662. |
CTM-7500 | The bmcryptpw utility for password encryption fails after an upgrade to version 9.0.21.000. |
CTM-7496 | The CVE-2015-7501 vulnerability was detected in the commons-collections library used by various Control-M installer JAR files. |
CTM-7487 | Jobs fail to run when Control-M/Server is hosted on a Linux machine and the /tmp directory is mounted with the noexec property. |
CTM-7398 | A search in Control-M Workload Archiving 9.0.21.000 does not return all rows of job logs for cyclic jobs with a rerun count greater than 5. |
CTM-7300 | Control-M/Server on Windows fails to connect to the Control-M/Agents through a TCP connection after an upgrade to version 9.0.21.000 that was performed from a network drive without write permission. This occurs due to a problem in the SSL upgrade step during the product upgrade. An error message regarding the failed connection notifies you that the system cannot find the ess_key.txt file. |
