PTF/Refresh 4.6.2 is available for Expedite Base/400 4.6

Date posted: September 7, 2007

Customers affected: All Information Exchange customers using Expedite Base/400.

Note: The information in this technical bulletin should be read by all Expedite Base/400 customers who use SNA to connect to Information Exchange (IE).

Highlight
 

This Technical Bulletin describes the fix in Expedite Base/400, which is to allow SNA LU 6.2 customers to connect to the GXS integrated IE system.

   
  Description

As part of our ongoing commitment to service excellence, GXS will be fully integrating the former IBM USA IE Service into GXS. The changes are part of an extensive program of service improvements as GXS upgrades the service to modern facilities. These changes will include a move to new dedicated hardware and an upgraded network solution with additional resilience.

The integration of the USA IE Service into GXS may require you to make a change to your current connectivity set-up, which will need to be completed by 7 October 2007.

Expedite Base/400 SNA customers will not be able to connect to the new service and will need this Expedite Base/400 4.6.2 PTF/refresh package prior to the above date. If you do not have this PTF once the new service is in place, your connection will fail with the Expedite 29980 error message, and CPF512A in your job log.

PTF/refresh 4.6.2 also includes the changes from 4.6.1 which rebranded the product from IBM to GXS.

New Customers:

If you are a new customer, install the package following the instructions in the Programming Guide, or the installation instructions on the GXS website.

Customers Requiring Only the PTF/refresh:

DO NOT overwrite your existing Expedite Base/400 libraries, if you are a current Expedite Base/400 customer. If you only want the PTF/refresh, you will still follow the installation instructions in the Programming Guide or the installation instructions on the GXS website, but it is highly recommended to make a backup of your existing Expedite Base/400 libraries before you begin the download. It is only absolutely necessary to replace object IEBASER in the EXPBLIBR program library.
