Starting from this release, you can define a number of scheduling objects into folders. This might result in long names for scheduling objects, a scenario which is now supported in the security file.
By default, this feature is disabled. To enable it, set the enSecFileExtendedFields global option to yes, as explained in Global options - detailed description. The change becomes effective as soon as you modify a security object.

With the new infrastructure of the Dynamic Workload Console we completely changed and improved the creation of the dashboard for your scheduling objects.
Maintaining and keeping control of a scheduling environment can be challenging. The right solution, when monitoring different machines and environments, is to have everything in one place. That is why the new dashboard represents the best choice. You can choose to create and customize your own dashboard or use one of the dashboard templates available. The possibility to have customized data sources with information from internal plan or from an external REST API, helps you in creating the perfect solution for monitoring. By creating boards and filling it with widgets, you will be able to control every scheduling object; from the health of your machines to the list or the number of critical jobs.

Enable business-oriented triggering and monitoring of activities related to jobs and job streams. You can categorize your jobs and job streams into a hierarchy of folders according to a specific line of business, department, geography or other category that makes sense for your business. Organizing jobs and job streams in folders makes it easy to manage user or group access at the folder level. Monitoring jobs or job streams defined in folders means you don't need to rely on complicated and restrictive naming conventions. This feature is now also available in the Workload Automation on Cloud offering for new subscription requests.

The IBM Workload Scheduler administrator can grant permissions to a user on a folder so that the user can freely create new access control lists or modify existing access control lists on the folder or any sub-folders to which the user has been delegated administrator permissions.
The user can in turn give access to the folder or sub-folder to other users by specifying an existing role to which the user wants to grant the access, as well as the folder. In this way, the IBM Workload Scheduler administrator can delegate the security to various organizations in the business to other users who can act independently as administrators for that organization. A new access type "acl" has been added for folder objects. With this type of access, users can create access control lists for the folder assigned to them by assigning predefined roles to users and groups on the entire folder hierarchy or on specific sub-folders.

Enable web single sign-on and use the OpenID Connect Provider as an identity provider. Client applications, for example, the Dynamic Workload Console, can verify the identity of a user by relying on authentication from an OpenID Connect Provider. You can configure the WebSphere Application Server Liberty Base server to function as an OpenID Connect Client to take advantage of web single sign-on and to use the OpenID Connect Provider as an identity provider. To simplify the configuration of the WebSphere Application Server Liberty Base server, a sample configuration file in XML format is provided.

Move jobs and job streams into folders and sub-folders in batch mode where the folder names are based on tokens contained in the job and job stream name.
You might have used simple to complex naming conventions when creating job and job stream names to easily identify and manage them. With character length restrictions for these names, creative abbreviations are required to stay within the limits. This can often lead to unreadable names. You can now migrate multiple jobs and job streams, in batch mode, whose names contain common pattern matching into specified folders and sub-folders, where the folder names are extracted from the job and job stream names themselves. Naming folders by using tokens from the job and job stream names frees up characters so that you can rename jobs and job streams with more meaningful names, in addition to the folder names. To rename and move jobs and job streams into folders, the composer rename command has been extended to support wildcard characters. The wildcard characters are used to replace pattern matching tokens in the job and job stream names and enable you to migrate the jobs and job streams in bulk, rather than one at a time. A preview option is provided to test the command before actually running it to ensure you obtain the expected result. This feature is now also available in the Workload Automation on Cloud offering for new subscription requests.
