Release notes!

Wednesday, March 19th, 2008

Today we rolled out the latest set of improvements to Landscape. The changes include:

  • The user management interface has been improved. Action buttons to add, edit and delete users have been moved to the status bar to make them easier to find. A padlock icon is displayed for users that are locked out.
  • Performance improvements under the hood make removing computers faster. In the past, a timeout could occur when trying to remove a computer from an account.
  • A bug that would cause the process listing to break when duplicate UIDs or GIDs are present has been fixed.

In the last week we’ve also rolled out updated client packages. The changes include:

  • Log rotation works correctly with dash.
  • The client start and stop logic has been improved and is more reliable.
  • Mount points mounted with –bind aren’t reported to the server.

There have been a number of improvements under the hood, some for performance and some to improve the ability for support personnel to provide the best service possible.

Thanks to everyone who reported problems and made suggestions for improvement!
