    Adabas config files with Json or yaml formats

    We are asking that ADABAS.INI and DBnnn.INI will support Json or yaml formats as well. In our site, DevOps expert employees are creating new servers and new databases by themselves. They are not Adabas DBAs. For them, json and yaml are much more s...

    ADAFRM should override DB definitions in ADABAS.INI

    If DBID nnn already exists in ADABAS.INI, and ADAFRM is creating the same DBID nnn, ADAFRM should override the parameters defined for this database in ADABAS.INI. For example the database name.

    Function "ODD()"

    If you want to know if a number is odd or even, you can do the following now: IF #I <> #I / 2 * 2 THEN ... END-IF This takes however quite a bit of CPU, but it can already by simplified by following declarations: 1 #I (I4)1 REDEFINE #I 2 FIL...

    ISP Editor - keep range selection after applying the range to a "copy" or "move"

    More and more ISP users, since program editor disabled. ISP - feature idea (from EVI): the ISP editor should keep the range selection (e.g. lines 5 - 10) after a copy or move command. This is done by the program editor.

    Mainframe Navigation needs additional features

    Mainframe Navigation view (which requires Entire System Server on the mainframe) needs more features to be really useful. Some examples: Jobs list should include a date/time when job ended (inactive) or was submitted (Active Jobs tree) view of a J...

    Transfer the LSO container library name to the Natural program

    A Project is defined in NaturaONE as Private. The steplibs contain the private libraries. NaturalONE developers creates their own LSO file when they want to debug Batch jobs. A Natural program is executed from NaturalONE and running on the server....

    AND, OR, XOR for binary fields

    It is currently not possible to do any "binary" operation on binary fields, like AND, OR, XOR or NOT. This makes declarations of particular bit-constants quasi useless, e.g. ... 3 #TB_VDT_FLAG (B01) /* various property flags...1 #TB_VDT_FLAG_VALUE...

    New Parameter for ZIIP switching

    When our Batch Natural for Ziip JOBS do a lot of I/Os the switching that happens even when using the I/O buffer causes the elapsed time to increase & greatly affects the batch window, which is unacceptable. I propose a new parameter to allevia...

    Enable creation of SQL indexes based on ADABAS descriptors

    An enhancement suggestion is to have a configuration switch for CONNX to ‘recognize’ ADABAS descriptors and tag those as SQL indexes -- so when we deploy into SQL Server .. descriptors will have indexes in SQL. Provides greater flexibility, better...

    ADAMUP to read mainframe unload dataset.

    Allow ADAMUP to read a mainframe load dataset - saving the time to decompress and compress. The FDT of the load dataset should be compared to the DB FDT before start. For rehostings - this would shorten the time needed for go-live and reduce MF pr...
