Tracking Number

Description

CTM-8321

Jobs are not submitted or are submitted late. This occurs when all the following conditions are met:

  • Parameter CTM_FOLDER_ADJUST_DUMMY is set to Y in the config.dat file.
  • The Adjust Event option in the SMART folder or sub-folder is set to Yes.
  • The ctmudchk utility executes with either the LIST or ORDER option. This results in ordering of unscheduled jobs as dummy jobs that remain in Wait Sched state.

CTM-8227

Control-M/Server fails to handle MFT updates sent from the Control-M/Agent, and the following error is issued to the stack trace in the CE log: 
“ERROR: duplicate key value violates unique constraint ""serial_key""”

Upon receiving the error, Control-M MFT resends the update, so no data is lost.
