Flexera One IT Asset Management February 2024 update includes the following new features and updates.
Note: For detailed information on these new features and updates, see the What's New in Flexera One / February 2024.
New Features
New support for Operator Lifecycle Manager (OLM) on the Flexera Kubernetes Inventory Agent
Now, OLM is also supported on the Flexera Kubernetes inventory agent. With this new feature, customers can now leverage OLM's capabilities, such as streamlined deployment, simplified management, and automated operations, while using the Flexera Kubernetes inventory agent.
Flexera Kubernetes agent available through the Flexera public repository in AWS
Flexera Kubernetes agent can now be downloaded from the online repository, streamlining its deployment automation.
Flexera Citrix inventory has been extended, entitlement access is now recognized for virtual desktops in Citrix on-premises environments
The FlexNet Beacon has been updated to now query both the Access Policy and Entitlement Policy per each Delivery Group that can stream applications and virtual desktops. Following the FlexNet Beacon connecting to the Citrix XenDesktop server, only users who have access to both the Access Policy and Entitlement Policy within the Delivery Group are considered to have access to virtual desktops. Subsequently, all available software installed on non-persistent VDIs will be mapped across to IT Asset Management and displayed against those users in the UI.
New columns added to the Application Transparency report
Six new columns have been added to the Application Transparency report to provide additional information on the inventory device where the application is installed. The additional columns will help identify which device the installation relates to, what inventory source the device came from and who the user of the device is.
