General Notes | |
|---|---|
 | Supported IBM Lotus Notes releases: 5.x, 6.x, 7.x, 8.x, up to 8.5.2 FP2 (Administrators need at least IBM Lotus Notes 7.x on WIndows or Linux) Supported client-side operating systems: Microsoft Windows NT4 (>=SP2), 2000, XP, 2003, 2008, Vista, 7, and Citrix/WTS, Apple Mac OS X Leopard, Linux Supported server-side operating systems: any supported by IBM (operating system independent) NOTE: Support is limited for platform and release combinations not supported by IBM |
| Linux & Mac OS X: Skinning, Realtime, Zip/Unzip and Attachment Blocking are not available on Linux or Mac OS X; also, MarvelClient on Mac OSX and Linux does not support the runtype "After Login - Before Sync" - any such actions must be set to run "After Login" (Agents and INI Management) |
| This release contains select important updates highlighted in red IMPORTANT NOTE FOR customers running MarvelClient 2.0.x: This new release comes with a new action dependencies feature andsignificant performance improvents - all customers are advised to update to at least 2.0.9 in case they have an earlier 2.0.x release.

Configuration Database | |
| ENHANCEMENT | Added the runtype "before login - init" to notes.ini & variables management action |
| CHANGE | The configuration database can now be translated into Japanese - for japanese Administrators, this may result in the MC databases not displaying proper labels/translation text until the translation is made available via Online Update - until then, please switch to English |
| FIX | Fixed a problem where saving a *new* desktop icon action with the "remove icon for all other users" option checked on the who tab (only visible if RESTRICT option is checked) did not work - previously, the desktop icon action had to be saved twice - now, removing the icon immediately works for "all other users" upon initial save of a newly created desktop icon action |
Analyze Database | |
| CHANGE | The analyze database can now be translated into Japanese - for japanese Administrators, this may result in the MC databases not displaying proper labels/translation text until the translation is made available via Online Update - until then, please switch to English |
| FIX | Fixed a problem where decrypting id files no longer worked for id files collected with mc 2.x This update is needed only if you are collecting ID files using the "Advanced\JID. ID-File" action |
| IMPORTANT NOTE | Note that the release notes 2011-04-24 should have also included the following three updates (these were forgotten when compiling the previous release notes): +) NEW: A new option to "View desktop(s) in web browser" has been added to the main user profile form in the analyze database: This feature was actually already available as a preview feature in the previous template release, it now also contains a fix for opening databases (the previous release opened databases by replica id including a colon ":"; the colon is now removed from the Notes URLs being opened) Also note that optionally &compact=1 can be appended to the browser preview URL resulting in a compact display of an end user desktop - this is in preparation of a future update to display end user desktops in the sidebar of Eclipse/standard Notes 8 clients. +) The HW/SW inventory agent has been updated to version 1.3 - previous agent releases always opened the analyse db, even if there was nothing to do; the agent is now much faster if it has nothing to do - NOTE that you must check for updates from within the respective run agent action to update the agent imported into the config database +) The collect location/connection/... documents agent has been updated to version 2.3 - previous agent releases always opened the analyse db, even if there was nothing to do; the agent is now much faster if it has nothing to do - NOTE that you must check for updates from within the respective run agent action to update the agent imported into the config database |
.DLL Updates (Windows) | |
| NEW / ENHANCEMENT (2.0.18) | Cluster members of the analyze db server are now added to the reader field of main user profile documents in the analyze db; this means that as soon as all user profiles are updated, the [Admin]-Role can be safely removed for all but Hub-Servers if you want Spokes (including Clustermembers) to only store their respective user population and replicate into a consolidated analyze database on hub servers only. |
| FIX (2.0.20) | Fixed a problem where inhaling the log of an agent run by a run agent action could lead to the client crashing |
| FIX (2.0.21) | Provided a fix to a customer running Notes 8.0.2 on Citrix where the OS would not wait for the client to properly terminate when logging off / shutting down the OS This resulted in incomplete/missing backups upon client shutdown for MarvelClient (whilst this has been fixed in 8.5.2 by IBM, the customer could not upgrade immediately) |
