Corrected Problems

The following table describes the corrected problems that are fixed in PACTV.9.0.21.201:

Tracking Number

Description

CTM-9717

An order request completes successfully, even though not all folders were ordered. This occurs when the number of jobs currently being ordered reaches the limit stated in the value of ORDERING_MAX_CONCURRENT_JOBS (which has a default value of 20000).

CTM-9712

An order request incorrectly ends with the error message “Order complete, one or more jobs may not have been ordered” and a completion code of 99, even though the order was successful.

CTM-9601

The ctm_agstat utility fails to run the -LIST_WITH_TAGS option after an upgrade to Control-M/Server 9.0.21.200. This occurs when the Control-M/Server runs on Windows with an MSSQL database.

CTM-9559

Control-M/Server version 9.0.21.200 migration fails on UNIX in the Import Keys step, with the following error message:

Failed to convert passwords.

CTM-9205

Control-M/Server stops sending job updates to Control-M/EM when the connection is configured with TLS (SSL).

The following message is written to the CE log:

DB updates sending is temporarily suspended since gateway is not coping. Pending packets... more than twice the updates chunk size (2000).

CTM-9111

Order of a job defined with “Run job on all hosts in group” (MULTIAGENT=Y) might not be performed on every Agent when the Control-M/Server runs on Windows with an MSSQL database and a database rollback occurred during the order.
