PSU-958
When a transfer set utf8bom:BOTH, the utf8bom settings were not correctly sent
to Platform Server for z/OS.

PSU-956
When transferring a file, if the filename contained the '%' characters, the PPA
functions that referenced the %LFILE token failed because the file name was
corrupted.

PSU-954
If the Log.txt file TLSProtocol and TLSCipher parameters contained corrupted
data, the Command Center Collection and Audit Poll failed with a core dump.

PSU-953
When a directory list command failed because a file or directory did not exist,
the transfer audit record was written as a failed transfer.

PSU-952
When a directory Send or Receive found 0 files to transfers, there was no
option to make this a successful transfer.
The following config.txt [CLIENT] parameter can be added to the config.txt:
DirTransfer0Files:      F                           { Failure|F, Success|S }
The following Template Parameter was added (TSEND, TRECV)
DirTransfer0Files:       F                           { Failure|F, Success|S } 
The following cfsend/cfrecv CLI parameter overrides the config.txt
parameter:
DirTransfer0Files:{S|F}   Shortcut: d0:{S|F}

PSU-897
When partial values on components of the certificate parameters were compared,
SSLAuth certificate incorrectly validated the authentication.

PSU-886
When Command Center executed a Platform Server transfer using the
'Add/Execute Platform Transfer' option, the command type parameter was
incorrectly validated and some transfers were not submitted.

PSU-865
When sending a single file from the current directory and the remote file name
specified *, the remote file name could be corrupted.

PSU-830
When the config.txt "RequiredNodeDefinition" parameter was set to "Y", the user
was not able to use wildcards in the "lf" and "rf" parameters.

PSU-813
When a load balancer initiated an SSL request to the Tunnel port and
"Check Client Certificate:" was not enabled, the Platform Server Service
CPU utilization was very high.
