Release Notes

  • Artigo

These release notes summarize the most important issues in Host Integration Server 2016.

Software

A single Microsoft Installer (MSI) file contains the server software. You can download the software from the Microsoft TechNet evaluation center.

Upgrade

You cannot do an in-place upgrade to HIS 2016. You must uninstall all existing copies of Host Integration Server, and then install HIS 2016. A HIS migration tool is available to assist in upgrading from previous versions of HIS. HIS Migration Tool has more details.

Installation

The setup installation is a new simple wizard that installs the software, and also has an optional advanced dialog to select (install) or de-select (uninstall) features.

Configuration

The post-installation configuration is a new set of simple dialogs that configure the features, and also has advanced settings to (enable) or un-configure (disable) sub-features.

Configuration is required to use most features, including services, adapters, and tools.

32-bit and 64-bit

You cannot install HIS 2016 on a 32-bit x86 only operating system. The setup installation supports 64-bit x64 operating systems. It installs features and tools to use side-by-side on x64 and x86 systems. For example, set up the installation and configuration so that you enable BizTalk Adapters to run in both a BizTalk Server 64-bit and 32-bit host application.

Client

The setup installation installs the server side-by-side with the client. The installation does not provide the client as a stand-alone option. The HIS team is developing a client-only MSI for x86 and x64 operating systems, which will be available at retail release.

Telemetry

HIS 2016 includes technology for telemetry and error reporting. The HIS product team utilizes this data to improve the quality, reliability, and performance of Host Integration Server. Ths includes:

  • Installation and Configuration:

    • Installation monitors the features installed or removed.

    • Configuration monitors the features configured or unconfigured.

  • Network Integration:

    • SNA Configuration monitors the SNA services features configured or unconfigured.

    • SNA Client monitors the SNA client connections established by reporting the connection instance by type.

    • SNA Sessions monitors the SNA sessions connections established by reporting the session instance by type.

    • Session Integrator monitors the connections established by reporting the connection instance by type.

    • TN3270 Emulator monitors the connections established by reporting the connection instance by type.

  • Application Integration:

    • Transaction Integrator monitors the connections established by reporting the connection instance by type and programming model.

  • Message Integration:

    • MQ Client monitors the connections established by reporting the connection instance by type.

  • Data Integration:

    • DRDA Service monitors the connections established by reporting the connection instance by DRDA client class and version.

    • DRDA Service monitors the exceptions by reporting the instance based on SQLSTATE, SQLCODE, and reason code.

    • DRDA Clients for DB2 and Informix monitor the connections established by reporting the connection instance by DRDA server class and version, data provider name and data consumer process name.

    • DRDA Clients for DB2 and Informix monitors the exceptions by reporting the instance based on SQLSTATE, SQLCODE, and reason code.
