More on OMEGAMON XE For CICS V4.2

I mentioned a while back that OMEGAMON XE for CICS V4.20 is now GA. With OMEGAMON CICS now at the V4.20 level that means all the core OMEGAMONs on z/OS have seen new versions be released in the past year.

Some of the new features of OMEGAMON XE For CICS V4.2 include:

Dynamic Terminal Integration Support. This is an extension of the Tivoli Enterprise Portal (TEP) client terminal emulator feature that allows you to launch from a Tivoli Enterprise Portal workspace to a related 3270 screen space in the target application. Predefined links have been provided with OMEGAMON XE for CICS on z/OS to OMEGAMON II for CICS screens.

Event forwarding and synchronization for Tivoli Enterprise Console® and Netcool/OMNIbus.

Improved migration. You can combine V3.1.0, V4.1.0 and V4.2.0 agents in your environment during migration.

ICAT Configuration tool improvements.

OMEGAMON XE for CICS on z/OS now contains the capability to monitor CICS Transaction Gateway V7.0.0 and higher for the mainframe. Now CICS TG support is bundled in the core OMEGAMON CICS tool, you don't need to purchase a separate tool to monitor CICS TG.

Consolidation of SMP/E FMIDs for OMEGAMON CICS installation.
