New Features

Monitoring

Agent Polling
- Native database monitoring
  - Requires a device Agent to be installed on the database server
  - Supports monitoring of the following databases
    - Microsoft SQL Server
    - MySQL
    - PostgreSQL
  - Database credentials are configured using Agent Access Profiles
- Windows Updates
  - Reboot reboot requires one-time password
    - Managed using the Windows Update Profiles page
    - By enabling this setting, the user requesting windows updates on a machine will need to be two-factor authenticated to the platform, and will have to re-enter their one-time password before allowing them to select a reboot as part of windows update
- Eventlog to Syslog Relay
  - When Syslog relaying is enabled, the platform can forward event logs as Syslog to other systems for processing
  - For example, a service provider might nominate an agent installed on their own network to act as the relay device for many customers, and relay Syslogs to the service provider's own systems for further analysis and processing
Api Polling
- Ftp Polling
  - New helper methods implemented to allow monitoring of devices that use legacy monitoring methodologies
- Additional Custom Polling Configuration
  - An option to create a polling configuration Json object has been added to the Api definitions page
  - This Json object may contain any additional information required to poll specific Apis, and is available to use in the api polling scripts
Syslog
- Implemented handling of multi-line Syslog. Some Syslog implementations include multiple Syslog messages in a single packet, particularly when using TCP. The poller will now split these into separate packets when processing and relaying
Syslog Relay
- Allow relaying to multiple IP addresses
NetFlow Relay
- Allow relaying to multiple IP addresses

Email Integration

System Integration: Email Clients
- Ability to set up email clients for integration
  - Used for inbound and outbound emails
  - Flexible c# scripting allows processing of emails in the "OnEmailReceived" script
  - Email clients can be made available to tickets for direct emailing from a ticket by configuring the "IsValidForTicket" script
Connector Quick Links
- Changed the Url that launches the Connector application to allow bookmarking and creating permanent links to device connections
  - The Url format used is
    https://<website>/Connect/Device/<deviceId>/<connectionType>[/Port/<port>][/<parameters>]
  - The following connection types support quick linking
    - telnet
    - ssh
    - rdp
    - http
    - https
  - An optional port may be added to the Url if multiple ports are configured for the connection type
  - Optional parameters may be passed for http and https connections. These parameters are appended to the Url when the connector initiates the connection to the device, in case the web site requires an additional path or query string to be supplied
  - An encoded version of the quick link Url may be copied from the website, from each device's Connector pop-up and then used from anywhere as long as the Connector click-once application is installed
    - The link is encoded to help obfuscate the connection information, should the link be used outside of the platform
  - Regardless of whether the link is used within the platform, or externally, an authenticated login session to the platform is required
    - Unauthenticated users will be redirected to the login page to authenticate before the connection is established

General

PostgreSQL support for customer (statistics) databases

Improvements in compression and handling of files attached to Tickets, Devices, Journals etc.

Breaking change in System Integration. Please read below information to successfully migrate to the new version:

Due to new libraries being used in .Net 6, system integration that is configured to use Soap web services will stop working until the following steps are performed after updating to this version:
- In the Administration / System / Integration page, view the Configuration for the affected Integration Profile
- Under the Http Soap Api section, expand External Soap Web Services and for each defined Soap web service, regenerate the client code by clicking the "Generate Client Code" button
- Validate and then save the configuration
- Perform the above steps for all integration profiles that have Soap web services defined

Issues Fixed

Fixed an issue in reporting that broke the forecast tables after migrating to monthly statistics tables
Fixed an issue in Api polling whereby in some circumstances a timeout during the Api authentication would stop further authentication retries
Fixed an issue in the poller whereby Tcp connection monitoring caused the poller to crash when the Tcp connection failed in certain circumstances
Fixed an issue whereby the adminstrator could not assign access control to Owner security principal type
Fixed an issue in the Api Definitions whereby the Api entity definition parent wasn't setting value

  - This provides flexibility in deployment of gateways to specific geographic regions, or even to a specific customer, in order to improve connectivity
- Gateways created prior to this version are marked as global gateways, and are available for all pollers, master pollers and agents to use
  - This behaviour maintains backward compatibility with previous versions of the software

- Download from the Pollers, Master Pollers or Poller Dashboard pages, or using the "docker pull" command provided in those pages
Syslog relay
- Forward Syslog packets to another system for processing
- Requires an Agent to handle the relaying
- The Agent can be installed in the service provider's network to act as the relay device for many customers
- Relaying feature is configured using the Syslog Profiles page

General

Data retention engine performance improvements
Changed the way statistics are stored in the database to monthly tables, improving the performance of data retrieval
After the upgrade to this version, the Data Retention engine will automatically migrate all existing statistics into the monthly table structure

Important note regarding the statistics data migration

Before the upgrade to this version, it is highly recommended that
- The Data Retention engine is enabled for each database server. This is best practice for the Gemmb platform as the data retention engine performs various maintenance roles on the statistics data tables
- The compression on each Database Server is set to Page compression as any newly created monthly tables will have the compression enabled. Compression of the statistics tables greatly reduces the space consumed by these tables and improves performance due to a reduction in disk activity when reading and writing to the tables

Issues Fixed

Fixed broken link to WebApi documentation for SyslogItem and AlertItem in the Syslog Profiles page
Fixed issues in Devices page that were causing the full device update to fail when the user was lacking certain permissions to assign items to the device
