Release notes for the July 27, 2025 update

Update Version 4.1.202507251511

New Features

Added Job Execution Pool to improve script execution performance.

Job execution pool allows to control memory and CPU use on the application host with many jobs run on various asset endpoints including those that are currently unreachable. The pool queues jobs run on the same asset for sequential execution through the same reused connection to the endpoint. The pool uses fixed number of threads to run jobs on different assets at the same time queueing assets when necessary. The pool eliminates Delayed jobs and inter-node asset locks.

Update Version 4.1.202507181918

New Features

Added the option to archive historical application data.

The option allows to manage database and file system space as well as data expiration compliance requirements by purging the data accumulated over time from the application storage. The option currently supports historical Event Logs and Jobs records.

Configuration to enable Kerberos authentication for the group of assets requires additional fields created on the Windows Host based asset type. These additional fields could stay hidden in the asset type thus inherited by all assets of this type or they could be overwritten for an individual asset.
