TMF 3.3
For more information on new commands and options, see the Interactive Upgrade
Guide 2, and the TFDS Programmer’s Guide.
TMF 3.3
The HP NonStop Transaction Management Facility (TMF) 3.3 was introduced in the
H06.05 RVU. If you do not use any new configurable features after migrating to
TMF 3.3, falling back to the RVU from which you migrated is not a problem. If you use
the new TMF 3.3 feature that allows you to add auxiliary audit trails while TMF is
started, however, you must first understand how that impacts any subsequent fallback.
For H06.08 TMF 3.3 fallback and migration issues, see the H06.08 Release Version
Update Compendium and the TMF Planning and Configuration Guide.
The products T8697 (the older product version update of ARLIB) and T8923
(TIFSERVE) are not included in H-series RVUs. T8697 is being replaced by T2781
(ARLIB2). For more information, see the H06.08 Release Version Update
Compendium and appropriate TMF softdocs.
TS/MP 2.1
The HP NonStop TS/MP 2.1 was introduced in the H06.05 RVU. TS/MP 2.1 provides
Pathsend users with higher link capacity to client processes. TS/MP 2.1 is intended
solely for Pathsend users using TS/MP 2.0. It does not apply to SCOBOL users or
TS/MP 3.0 users.
Migration
In general, all TS/MP 2.0 applications that use Pathsend requestors and TS/MP 2.0
scripts (also called OBEY files) can run in a TS/MP 2.1 environment. However, you
might need to modify the PATHMON process configuration to achieve optimum
TS/MP 2.1 performance.
New ACS processes must be started via SCF at system startup and must be
managed. These processes are $ZPnn, $ZLnn, and $ZCSnn.
For details on these issues, see the TS/MP Supplement for Limits Relief.
Fallback
Consult the Global Customer Support Center (GCSC) if you have installed TS/MP 2.1
and run applications that use Pathsend requestors, and then decide to fall back to
TS/MP 2.0.
