New Features in Version 7

The optional VTS Gate interface, new with Version 7, provides enhanced security features like SAF interface and hardware key protection for VTS-TSRs. VTS-TSRs can also be initialized in read-only or read-write mode. These new features provide the ability to better manage VTS-TSR access.

Also with Version 7, a VTS-TSR now contains a generation number. This generation number increases each time a VTS-TSR is restarted or switched to read-only or read-write mode. Switching of a VTS to read-only or read-write mode is relevant only if you have licensed VTS Gate.

The generation number for a VTS is contained in VTS-DATA and can be obtained using the LV command. For more information on VTS-DATA and how to use the VTS generation number, please refer to the tableBASE Programming Guide.
