Rocket® Enterprise Suite

BackgroundCurrently, I have added and enabled a VSAM External Security Manager (ESM) to my Rocket Enterprise Server. I added the VSAM ESM to the security managers list at the ES Administration and Directory Server security domain levels. I can sign on using the users I manage at the ES Administration level through the VSAM ESM’s verification and authentication. The IssueAlthough I have added the same VSAM ESM I’m using at the ES Administration and Directory Server security domains to the region’s security facility configuration, I cannot start the region using any of the default users provided in the default VSAM ESM. In the region, I navigated to [General → Verify]. On the Verify page, I clicked the [Run] button and got some more insight. It seems it is successfully loading the ESM configuration “VSAM ESM”, but it has failed to initialize the SAF manager due to reason 16. The error message states, “Safmgr initialization failed, reason = 16”. I can’t start the region using the VSAM ESM

Within a "Mainframe COBOL Project," I'm trying to generate a Java client for a COBOL program. To do this, I'm using the context menu option on the COBOL program: New -> Java Interface. This has created the "Java Interfaces" path within the project, and inside that path, a file with the .xml extension containing the mapping between the Java attributes and the COBOL Linkage structure.So far, so good, but when I run the "Generate Client" option from the context menu of the .xml file, the following error message appears: "Please Set Up Java EE classpath in the properties dialog." I've been investigating, and it seems the problem is that it can't find the mfccl.jar Java library, but I don't know where I need to declare it to avoid the error and generate the Java client.Thanks.

My application jobs runs and Enterprise server and the logs are in ESCWA, i wanted to retrieve the log information from ESCWA via API. Does ESCWA provides API with all the logs details of a JOB which can be then used my process to use them in analysis.

Hi There,My application source code is using IKJEFT01 utility to execute PL/I DB2 program using below syntax: //DB201    EXEC PGM=IKJEFT01,DYNAMNBR=50,//  PARM=('%DBDB20 RUN,DB2(&DB2SYS)PG(&PROGRAM)PL(&PLAN)',//        'RTR(&RETRY)PRM(&PARMSTR)LNG(&LANG)RC(&RC)')//SYSTSIN  DD  DUMMYI have added below to the legacy.xml in <BatchProg> but it is not recognizing the relationship.      <item> IKJEFT01,PARM,2,PG(%P) </item>

Hi Community,I am seeking assistance regarding a persistent ORA-19702 error ("device parameter exceeds maximum length of string") occurring in an Enterprise Server 11.0 environment on Windows.Environment Summary:Product: Rocket Enterprise Developer / Enterprise Server 11.0. Architecture: 32-bit region (Working Mode 32). Database: Oracle 19c via XA interface.

Summary: Rocket Analyzer is not detecting %INCLUDE statements that are wrapped in conditional compilation directives (%IF).Problem Description: We have a PL/I program `PL1PGM1.pl1` that includes a copybook `PL1INCL1.inc` which contains multiple %INCLUDE statements. Some of these includes are wrapped in conditional compilation directives using %IF statements. Rocket Analyzer's dependency analysis only detects %INCLUDE statements where the conditional compilation evaluates to TRUE based on preprocessor variable values. It excludes includes where conditions evaluate to FALSE. Example from PL1INCL1.inc%IF $COND1 = 'YES' %THEN %DO;%INCLUDE PL1INCL2;%END; %IF $COND2 = 'YES' %THEN %DO;%INCLUDE PL1INCL3;%END; %IF $COND3 = 'YES' %THEN %DO;%INCLUDE PL1INCL4;%END; Since `COND1` and `COND2` are not set to 'YES', Rocket Analyzer excludes PL1INCL2 and PL1INCL3 from the dependency graph. To check, I changed the condition %IF $COND1= 'YES' %THEN %DO; to %IF $COND1= 'NO' %THEN %DO; and the dependency n

Hi There,Is there a capability or option in Rocket Enterprise Analyzer to generate DB2 analysis reports. I need to perform an analysis for data type portability, data object compatibility for both DB2 LUW and PostgresSQL target database. and then the gap analysis.Thanks,Gauri

I have a JCL script that executes a COBOL program through a procedure (PROC0001). Specifically, the goal is to pass parameters to the procedure so that any COBOL program can be executed, and this is source code that is running in a production environment. However, when I try to run the same code on my PC with Enterprise Developer for Eclipse 11 on a Windows platform, the following errors occur:But when running the JCL script, a series of errors occur.Specifically, here is the relevant portion of the JCL script://JCL0001 JOB (0),'JCL0001',CLASS=?,MSGCLASS=?,USER=????????//STEP1 EXEC PROC=PROC0001,// PROGRAM=PGM00001,// DSN=DBP,// PLAN=PPGM0001,// LOAD1=PGMS.LIB.LOADHere I attach the part of PROC PROC0001 that I find relevant://PROC0001 PROC PROGRAM=XXXL9999,// DSN=XXX,// PLAN=XXXP9999,// LOAD1=STEC.LIBDUMMY.LOAD,// LOAD2=STEC.LIBDUMMY.LOAD,// LOAD3=STEC.LIBDUMMY.LOAD,// OUTC=*,// RGN=0K,// PARMS=&PARMSAnd the result of the execution produces the following errors:1 //JCL0001 JOB (0),

I have PROD1.PROCLIB listed in the System Procedure Library in JES configuration.  But unless I include the JCLLIB statement in my JCL it can’t find the procedure.

Is it possible to migrate JAVA code that use JCICS in CICS Liberty server on zOS to run on Rocket Enterprise server on Linux ?  Is there any guide for such migration ?

All of my requests being sent via RESTful API that previously worked have recently been receiving a 429 HTTP status code indicating too many requests have been sent to the API.I'm getting the following response:{"ErrorTitle" : "Error 429 - Too Many Requests","ErrorMessage" : "Session limit has been reached. Please try again later."}The error is a general HTTP message, not specific to the product.How do I mitigate this obstacle? What is the admin configuration setting in the Enterprise Server to extend the session limit and relax the rate-limiting?The Retry-After header is an HTTP response header that informs the client how long it should wait before making another request is commonly used in scenarios where the server cannot process the request immediately, such as rate-limiting or scheduled downtime. I do not want any of the rate-limiting or scheduled downtime that I’m currently experiencing.

We are attempting to submit a JCL job to our local enterprise solution server via the ESMAC JES control API and are receiving a response with code 400 and message stating “No Origin of Referer header present.” How do we configure the server to allow access control from all origins?

I have a COPY project that is used in other COBOL projects. In this COPY project, there are lines of code that need to be continued because they exceed 80 characters. For example:05 PIC X(70) VALUE "(xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx- "x)".In fact, the Enterprise Developer IDE for Eclipse 11 reports the following errors for this line:- COBCH0026S Literal too long- COBCH1007E VALUE literal size 227 > data item size 70. Literal truncated.And since it's a COPY project, I can't apply compilation directives. In fact, I don't understand why the IDE is trying to compile a COPY. Does anyone know how to solve this problem?Thank you very much.

I am launching a job from Enterprise Developer for Eclipse 11 and the only thing I can see in the spool is the following message:JES000050E JCL parsing error: Job: 0001003 RC = 8Can anyone tell me what else I could check to try to determine what might be happening?

Hello. I have a COBOL application composed of several projects (n COBOL-type Projects, one COPY-type project, and one COPY DCLGEN-type project), and I wonder if it is technically possible to execute any program from any project with a single existing batch region defined in Enterprise Developer 11 for Eclipse running on a Windows 11 PRO operating system. In fact, I have created a batch region in the aforementioned environment and it starts correctly when associating a single project (I performed the association using Enterprise Developer for Eclipse 11 on my PC with Windows 11 PRO operating system), but the moment I associate a second project to the region, the following message appears during startup:JES000057E JES validation - MFJCLCFG failed for spool file SPLJOB.dat - RC = +000000007 CASSI9012E JCL support failed to start. Error returned from casspool, RC=0020 In fact, I have observed that the ESCWA environment variable in the aforementioned Enterprise Developer 11 effectively conc

I just installed Rocket Software Enterprise Developer Version 11 and need to obtain the default password for the SYSAD user. Following the suggestion on the ESCWA login screen:"The SYSAD user has been created with a generated password.To determine the password, run:"mfsecretsadmin read microfocus/temp/admin"" I ran the command, but the password it returned is invalid. Does anyone know what I can do?

On a Rocket Enterprise Server 11 installed on a Windows 11 system, I created a test region (using the JCL template) and associated a project with it. I started the region and received the following error:JES000011E Batch Spool File Error; SPLJOB Status Open I/OCASSI9012E JCL support failed to start. Error returned from casspool, RC=0012Does anyone know where I should define the spool file path?

I'm trying to download the PDF documentation for "Enterprise Developer 11.0 for Eclipse (Windows)"https://docs.rocketsoftware.com/es-ES/bundle/enterprisedevelopereclwin_ug_110/page/yos1742952172927.htmlHowever, I get the following message: "Your PDF is being generated. Please leave this browser open until your PDF has downloaded."But the download doesn't start.Does anyone have an alternative link where I can download the documentation in PDF format?Thanks.

We are running Enterprise Developer 10.0 that accesses a SQL server database from CICS via an ODBC XA Resource.  We are experiencing long standing schema modification locks (LCK_M SCH_M) in SQL Server coming from the Rocket server through MSDTC.  Currently the only way we know to resolve is to stop/start MSDTC on the database server.  Is there any documentation on configuration options (either the Rocket or SQL servers) that we can review to help resolve these locks?

Where and how do I specify the startup transaction for a CICS region when coming in through a TN3270 terminal emulator?  

Does anyone have document on  Best Practices and guidelines for Upgrading Enterprise developer and Enterprise server from one version to a newer version??

Rocket has an Enterprise Analyzer Certified Professional - L4XX training course. The start of the course has a hands-on lab for installing a demo workspace. Task 2 step 5 is to “Add sources manually”; the screenshot in step 7 shows this being done from C:\EA Sources\BankDemo\sources, but as far as I can tell, this is not installed with Enterprise Analyzer. (There are some demo files it puts in every workspace but not the full demo.So where is someone taking the class supposed to get the demo files?The training videos several time to go to the “attachment tab”. There is no attachment tab in the training site, as far as I can find. Nor anywhere else with downloads.I happen to have a .zip file with what I think you need, but only due to another case I had with Rocket.My question is: Where is someone taking the class supposed to get the demo sources from? Is this something that was lost in the migration from Open Text to Rocket?
