Problem summary

  • ****************************************************************
* USERS AFFECTED: 01.system administrator                      *
****************************************************************
* PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: 01.enhancement where JMON binds to      *
*                         loopback address only                *

* RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
****************************************************************
01.Security enhancement where JES Job Monitor binds to
   loopback address only. This change is incompatible with
   older RDz servers that expect JMON to bind to the default IP
   stack. By specifying LOOPBACK_ONLY=OFF in FEJJCNFG you can
   disable the new behavior, but this change is incompatible
   with current RDz servers that expect JMON to bind to the
   loopback address. As the loopback address has no TCP/IP
   stack affinity, support for _BPXK_SETIBMOPT_TRANSPORT has
   been removed.

Problem conclusion

  • 01.Security enhancement where JES Job Monitor binds to
   loopback address only. This change is incompatible with
   older RDz servers that expect JMON to bind to the default IP
   stack. By specifying LOOPBACK_ONLY=OFF in FEJJCNFG you can
   disable the new behavior, but this change is incompatible
   with current RDz servers that expect JMON to bind to the
   loopback address. As the loopback address has no TCP/IP
