Mainframe Discovery update in v16.10

Modified on: Tue, 31 Mar, 2026 at 4:08 PM
As part of the release v.16.10, we discover many more attributes with zOS discovery and have changed our script to accommodate for this. As part of zOS discovery, the end-user supplies a job card. With this new version, the old job card specified may no longer work and the clients will have to change their discovery job to account for this. The change is dependent on server configuration.  Please check with your z/OS Administrator if you experience any issues running your existing z/OS discoveries.  
 
Job Card Examples:
Before:
//DEVIC421 JOB (A833B1NK),'DEVICE 42',MSGCLASS=D
// MSGLEVEL=(1,1),NOTIFY=&SYSUID,REGION=0M
After:
//DEVIC421 JOB (A833B1NK),'DEVICE 42',CLASS=A,MSGCLASS=K
// MSGLEVEL=(1,1),NOTIFY=&SYSUID,REGION=0M
