Configuration Database | |
| FIX | Fixed a problem where actions running "After login - before download" where incorrectly displayed in the category "After login" |
| FIX/CHANGE | Change/Fixed MIMEConvertWarning Preference to be properly set to 0 if enabled (confusing but that's how it needs to be if enabled) This means that if you resave a "Settings\CPREF. User Preferences" action in which Enable MIME save warning is being managed (whether it's being disabled or enabled), it would CHANGE the existing behavior to the opposite! - In such a case, please make sure you remove the setting from the current set of managed settings and add it in the correct list of en- or disabled settings. |
| CHANGE | Changed the realtime example "Allow creation of local SYSTEM databases" to include all relevant non "*.ns?" filenames (see 8. for further details) |
| CHANGE/ ENHANCEMENT | Changed the view label [ID Files\Cert. & Issuer] to [ID File\Cert. & more] - in addition the view has been enhanced to categorize ID files by a.) Certifiers and b.) Notes Shared Log-In details (see .DLL update 2.0.24 for details) |
| ENHANCEMENT | Added a new realtime example "Prevent local database creation" to prevent creation of any .ns? database (*.nsf, *.ns4, *.ns5, etc.) - in combination with 8.) this allows for reliable prevention with flexible whitelisting |
| ENHANCEMENT | Added a new role to both config and analyze database to optionally show a navigator option show "Self-created folders" This navigator menu item is available / functional if a user a.) has the role [ShowFolders], and b.) has folders to display underneath the respective navigator entry |
Analyze Database | |
| FIX/CHANGE | Added the roles [Rollback], [Admin] and [Server] to both reader and author fields of rollback documents created from the analyze database |
| FIX/CHANGE | Reworked the existing warning category in the Analyze view "Lotus Notes\by Notes & MC Release" to indicate wrong InstallType notes.ini settings |
| CHANGE | Changed the layout of the cleanup/automailer configuration form in the analyze db: the "send summary to"-field and the "run cleanup once now" button are now at the top of the form, the button is now also labelled "Run Cleanup/Automatailer once now" |
| FIX/ENHANCEMENT | Added an additional warning category to the Analyze view "Lotus Notes\by Notes & MC Release" to indicate wrong InstallMode notes.ini settings |
| ENHANCEMENT | The ADDON. PERNAB agent to optionally collect locations, connections, ... has been reworked to complete much faster in larger environments Please note that in order to benefit from this update, you must "Check for Update" in the respective run agent action after updating the design of the Analyze database. |
| ENHANCEMENT | The ADDON. (HW/SW) INVENTORY agent to optionally collect OS hardware and software details has been reworked to complete slightly faster in larger environments Please note that in order to benefit from this update, you must "Check for Update" in the respective run agent action after updating the design of the Analyze database. |
| NEW/ENHANCEMENT | The ADDON. (HW/SW) INVENTORY agent has been enhanced to also collect Product Codes (=Product Identifying Numbers) along with a Software Inventory - this can be useful to centrally inventory product codes for uninstalling specific software (prior to software upgrades, for example) Please note that in order to benefit from this update, you must "Check for Update" in the respective run agent action after updating the design of the Analyze database. |
| NEW/ENHANCEMENT | Added an option to the Java table display in the Analyze database to change the font used in the table; MS Gothic will properly display Japanese characters (Arial does not) The setting is memorized in the viewing users notes.ini - note that changing the font with reader rights is supported in Notes 7 and up; earlier Notes releases require Author rights with Create documents in order to be able to edit the font settings dialog. |
| NEW | Added a new role to both config and analyze database to optionally show a navigator option show "Self-created folders" This navigator menu item is available / functional if a user a.) has the role [ShowFolders], and b.) has folders to display underneath the respective navigator entry |
.DLL Updates (Windows) | |
| FIX/ENHANCEMENT (2.0.22) | MC now supports the use of environment variables in the ini:ConfigFile parameter and for parameters inside of any such referenced ConfigFile |
| FIX (2.0.23) | Fixed a problem where managing location names with japanese characters could lead to truncated location names |
| NEW/ENHANCEMENT (2.0.24) | The optional "keyfile.xml" (as can be enabled via [Advanced\XTX. Extended XML Export]) now also stores the information whether Notes Shared Log-in (NSL) is enabled for a users id file |
