This section describes known issues and considerations in iWay version 8.0.1.
iWay Business Activity Monitor (BAM) requires the creation of a new database. An existing iWay BAM database (created in iWay version 7.x) can be archived for future access through standard database utilities. There are known issues with the resubmit functionality of iWay BAM in iWay version 8.0, due to repackaging into the application structure. The Windows installer does not include the repackaged application components, but still includes the prior available application archives. This will be resolved in the next product update. For more information or if you have any questions, please contact iWay Customer Support.
On z/OS platforms, a test run for a process flow from iWay Integration Tools (iIT) can be performed only against the local configuration or a remote configuration. The test run against a test server is not supported at this time.
There is no RTDR object in iWay version 8.0, which will be returned to the product in a future update. In the meantime, you can access the same functionality by adding a Service object into a process flow, and configure it to call an SQL Batch Insert Iterator (XDIterSQLBatchAdd).
This preparser has been updated to follow common standards requiring string values to be specified using double quote (" ") characters. The use of single quote (' ') characters is not supported at this time, since data can use single quotes as part of the data field itself and not as a delimiter, which results in a parsing issue. In future releases, a parameter setting may be introduced that will allow users to specify the type of quotes (single or double) to use.
Metadata for the iWay configuration file, which contains definitions for generics/configurations, can be updated to the latest version using the Refresh option. Doing so will bring in the options for newer components that are available in iWay version 8.0.1. The Refresh option is available by right-clicking the iWay configuration file. If you create a new configuration from within a process flow, then this step is not required. In this case, metadata for the iWay configuration file will be refreshed automatically for any components that are used.
Due to internal communication changes with the WebFOCUS Reporting Server, iWay provides limited support for the later versions of WebFOCUS. Specifically:
