Migrating from V14.1 to V15.1

This section provides information about changes to Fault Analyzer version 15.1 that you should be aware of if migrating from version 14.1.

• Installation of the IDIXDCAP pre-dump exit is no longer supported via the IEAVTABX CSECT exit list. The IDIXDCAP must be installed as an IEAVTABX_EXIT dynamic exit. For details, see Installing the MVS change options/suppress dump exit IDIXDCAP.
• XDUMPs are enabled by default. For details, see Extended minidump data set (XDUMP).
• Previously deprecated options have been removed:
  • HistCols
  • InteractiveExitPromptSeconds
  • RDZClient
  • UseIDISTime
• The IDIOPT1 SMP/E USERMOD (using a nonstandard LE parameter list separator character) has been deprecated. There is currently no replacement.
• The IDIOPT2 SMP/E USERMOD (suppressing IDIXDCAP real-time analysis if prior exit RC=8) has been deprecated. The replacement is to use the IDIOPTLM configuration-options module PREVEXIT options field. For details, see Suppressing IDIXDCAP real-time analysis if prior exit RC=8 (PREVEXIT).
• Data set IDI.SIDILPA1 is no longer provided. If this data set exists from an earlier version of Fault Analyzer, then it should be deleted, including any entry for it in the LPALSTxx parmlib member.
