PINNED It should be possible to step-in while debugging Flow Services
As of webMethods.io Integration 11.0.7, a Flow Service can be debugged step by step in the Flow Service editor, but for an INVOKE step, the debugger can only step over the INVOKE step. It would be very helpful if the debugger would also allow to s...

Enable IBM DataPower and IBM API Gateway to export logs via OpenTelemetry (OTLP), alongside existing tracing, so customers can stream gateway logs natively to any OTel-compatible backend

Why this matters: Enterprises are standardizing on OpenTelemetry for vendor-neutral observability. DataPower already supports OpenTelemetry traces; not supporting logs forces customers to maintain parallel pipelines (syslog/NFS/File/SOAP) and cust...

Increase the robustness of RDQM failover when a node in the cluster is unhealthy. (Please refer to case number: TS020441085)

In certain situations, a system on which an RDQM node runs can become so unhealthy that it impacts that ability of the queue manager to fail over to another node. For example, this could be a system that runs at 100% CPU utilization for a sustaine...

Make an new parameter to MQ-channel-definitions defining minimum-MQ-GET-WAIT-time

Many decentral MQ-applications are coded in Spring and Spring has a default MQ-GET-WAIT-time of one second, which decentral application-programmers typically don't worry about, but this relatively small MQ-GET-WAIT-time can cause a lot of CPU-over...
