The May 2020 update of the Spider Software Services is now available.

All components are available in our Product and License Center.

Highlights

  • SCCM connector: Due to performance issues, the additional filter for files we delivered with the March update has been removed.
  • The delivery for the data center inventory for Linux and Unix has been changed in the multi-platform inventory agent, which transfers the inventory results directly to the Spider Data Center Appliance. The previous "cis" agent has been removed from the delivery.
  • Renaming of Citrix products:
    • XenServer --> Hypervisor
      Enterprise Edition --> Premium Edition
    • Citrix Netscaler VPX --> ADC VPX
      Platinium Edition --> Premium Edition

Thanks for the message,

i would like you to think about the possibility to mention the target build (*) of the catalogue after successful updates below future announcements like that:

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Versionsinformationen
Spider SAM                        6.3.8.44
Software Services           1.2004.1.861
<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

A tiny improvement to make the us admins even more safe in uodating catalogues.
* Version before updating to 05/2020 catalogue
 
best regards
