In addition to the existing states (online and offline) four new states have been added: "Never communicated with UMS", "License violated", "In Lockscreen" and "In Firmware Update". The states "In Lockscreen" and "In Firmware Update" are only visible, if the thin client firmware supports it and if following option is set in the UMS (activated by default): "UMS Administration Tree -> Global Configuration -> Thin Client Network -> Thin Clients send updates". This feature requires Linux firmware 10.03.100 or newer. - Added: Advanced message functionalitiy. The "Send Message" action in the thin client context menu opens a new editor to send customized messages and templates. Several default templates have been added and can be seen/changed in UMS Console -> UMS Administration -> Global Configuration ->TC Rich Message Templates. Thin clients which do not support the feature are showing the plain message like before. - Added: Clear value button for thin client attributes with type "DATE". [Universal Firmware Update] - Added: Filter option to show only the latest available firmware version in firmware update dialog. (UMS Console -> Universal Firmware Update Tree Node -> Context Menu -> "Check for new firmware updates") [Console, administration section] - Added: Possibility to use a list of predefined thin client attribute values. (UMS Console -> UMS Administration Tree -> Global Configuration -> Thin Client Attribute) - Changed: The order of the tree nodes in UMS Console ->UMS Administration -> Global Configuration.

[IGEL Management Interface (IMI)] - Added: IMI V3 supports now "Asset Inventory Information". - Added: IMI V3 supports now "Reset to factory defaults" for thin clients. - Added: The thin client details do now contain the field battery level in IMI V3. [Installer (linux)] - Added: Enhanced functionality for UMS installations on Linux. Required libraries can now be installed automatically during UMS installation. ============================================================================= Resolved issues: ============================================================================= [UMS common] - Fixed: Licenses can't be registered at the UMS, if the licenses are located on a network drive. - Fixed: UMS installations with more than three domain controllers were not able to update to UMS version 5.05.100. After the update, each UMS login failed with a "truncation error" message. - Fixed: The "Confirm deletion" dialog showed nested objects twice. - Fixed: The "Restore backup" action failed for renamed ".pbak" backup files. - Changed: If the internal thin client name is set to overwrite the network name of the thin client, there is now a check to make sure that the name is DNS capable. [Console, common] - Changed: All export actions in the main menu are now always enabled, irrespective of the selected tree-object. - Fixed: Bug in UMS Linux installations where hyperlinks could not be opened. (e.g. UMS Console -> UMS Administration -> Misc Settings) - Added: The thin client content panel shows icon corresponding to the current status (online/offline/advanced health status) [Profiles] - Fixed: Exporting profiles (as archive) on a mapped network drive resulted in an unreadable file. - Fixed: Inconsistent results in profile comparision when comparing two profiles in different directions (e.g. A-B vs B-A) [Template keys and groups] - Fixed: An error occurs if a template key or value group with empty description is edited and the UMS database is an Oracle DB.

[Administrator application] - Fixed: The 'backups' section in the UMS Administrator was only active for embedded databases. Now the 'backups' section is always enabled to give the possibility to create and restore certificates and server configurations with all databases. [Installer (windows)] - Changed: To avoid incorrect input, the backup file path in Windows installer can now only be set by the file chooser dialog. [Installer (linux)] - Fixed: Removed irritating log4j warnings during database backup process in Linux installer. - Fixed: Removed irritating "jsvc_server.pid" error message in Linux installer summary. [UI / Look&Feel] - Added: New splash screen for UMS Console and UMS Administrator
