Users connected to ZMF 7.1 servers from a ZDD 8.1.1 (build 500) client are not presented with the extended component user variables (UserOption101-UserOption7205/CUSR0101-CUSR7205) at component build time. Similar tests running against an 8.1 ZMF Server do show the user options.
CMN8490I - Check out from was not specified. We should disable the ZMF4ECL ‘checkout from another package’ functionality when users are connected to a ZMF Server running lower than 8.1.2.
If a user has ZMF package components checked out to a project/personal development library, they can use the ‘ChangeMan ZMF Checkin...’ option from the z/OS Projects perspective. If the user has also not already logged onto the ZMF system from the Serena perspective they will be prompted for their connection details. If the user types in the incorrect password at this point the initial checkin request fails but the password is stored somewhere that cannot be reset in this perspective.
