Changelog and Release Notes

Version 7.1.1

Bugfixes

  • Agent (Windows) [I1087]: current configuration is logged twice when the agent is restarted.
  • Agent (Windows) [I1088]: service stops when adding a license file with only a UXM license while agent is running.
  • Central config file management (macOS) [I1094]: fixed rare exception while searching for config archive.

  • Dashboards [I1096]: fixed the calculation of total number of occurrences for failed tests on the Security Score dashboard.

Known issues

  • Browsers/IE add-on (Windows): metrics are not collected on page reload.
  • Browsers/IE add-on (Windows): metrics are collected incompletely for the configured start page.
  • Browsers/IE add-on (Windows): monitoring does not work if IE is published from Citrix Virtual Apps. It does work from Citrix Virtual Desktops, however.
  • Browsers/Firefox add-on: if the option privacy.resistFingerprinting is set to true, browser metrics are not available due to invalid data being sent from Firefox.
  • Citrix ADC: in very rare cases, the content of the Virtual Server Performance field vServerName contains spaces in wrong places.
  • Citrix site monitoring (Windows): data collection issue if the Citrix Remote Powershell SDK (required for Citrix Cloud monitoring) is installed on a CVAD controller.
  • Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops Machines (Windows): when running the Citrix VDA on a Citrix Delivery Controller, some per-machine information is missing.
  • Experience Score [I377]: scheduled searches generate three warnings in Splunk’s _internal index every 30 minutes. The messages look like the following: DateParserVerbose - Failed to parse timestamp in first MAX_TIMESTAMP_LOOKAHEAD (128) characters of event.. However, there is no impact on uberAgent’s functionality.
  • GPU (Windows) [I33]: values for the fields ComputeUsagePercentAllEngines, ComputeUsagePercentEngine0 and similar can be higher than 100 with Intel Iris GPUs on Windows Server 2016 1607.
  • Kafka [I291]: in rare cases sending data to Kafka results in a SEC_E_BUFFER_TOO_SMALL error message in the logfile. This should have no effect; the transmission is repeated and succeeds on the second try.
  • Network monitoring (Windows) [I998]: in rare cases the determination of NetUtilizationPercent can lead to higher CPU load on Windows 7 x64.
  • Update inventory (Windows): not all installed Windows updates may be reported due to API limitations.
  • User input delay (Windows) [I983]: determining this metric may trigger a handle leak in uberAgent caused by Windows. This was fixed by Microsoft in most OS versions, but still happens on Windows Server 2022 22H2.
  • Volume inventory (macOS): the encryption status of mounted read-only APFS snapshots may not be reported due to API limitations. This includes the root directory volume in a default installation of macOS.
