Comments

• Growth of Tables and Attributes:
    OMEGAMON data is organized into tables with attributes
    defined for these tables.  OMEGAMON supports versioning of
    these tables and attributes to allow users to run old
    versions in parallel with new versions.  This enhancement
    dramatically increases the ability to support multiple
    versions simultaneously.
  
  Multiple DDSs:
    The OMEGAMON product uses the RMF Distributed Data Server
    (DDS) to supply some real time and all enhanced 3270UI
    history data.  This enhancement provides the ability to
    specify which DDS to use when multiple DDS servers are
    available.
  
  MZAP/MLST commands:
    The OMEGAMON ON Z/OS agent has been modified to allow for
    the display and zapping of memory from the enhanced 3270UI.
    This new function may be invoked programmatically or may be
    accessed via the Memory menu item in the View pulldown of
    the enhanced 3270UI.  This function requires the addition
    of new SAF defintions in order to enable it (see the
    HOLD data for additional information).
  
  Near Term History:
    Two workspaces have been added in the enhanced 3270UI that
    support multiple metrics for both an LPAR and an address
    space by 5-minute intervals over a specified summary time
    interval.  In addition, zoom navigation has been added to
    allow direct navigation from an existing execution and delay
    workspace's device volume to an existing wokspace displaying
    address spaces with I/O active against the selected volume.
  
  Incorrect LPAR Group Capacity metrics displayed:
    Underlying code behind the OMEGAMON 3270 SYS major command's
    RMSU minor command has been modified to correct scaling of
    a component in the calculation of Average Group Capacity%
    and Average Used MSUs/Hour.
