Release notes - known issues, changes since last release

• NOTE: this is likely the last or pre-last beta before the Dwarfguard 2.0 release.

• Note: while the BETA is designated as 1.4.0, the one and only publicly published build bears version tag 1.4.3

• Version 1.4.0_BETA is a beta version containing functionality to be released as production in Dwarfguard 2.0.0.

• This is a published BETA release, meaning that:

  • It is supported (to a certain extent).
  • Upgrade path from previous BETA is supported.
  • Upgrade path to next BETA will be provided.
  • Upgrade path from last BETA in the 1.y.0 chain to 2.0.0 will be provided.

• It is still a BETA release, meaning that while the user gets the latest features, some may not be working in full and as the product has not been tested as extensively as a production release, the risk of running into bugs is considerably higher than when using a production version.

Featured changes

• This is fourth BETA release for 2.0.
• List of features planned for 2.0.0 is not disclosed here.
• The particular changes between BETA3 and BETA4 are available in the "About -> Release Notes" after upgrade.
• The agent persistent data (on Advantech devices only) and temporary data (on all devices) directories were updated, all agents will be updated automatically.

Known issues (updates with bugs being reported)

NOTE: only brief description of known issues is provided on this page

• Not fixed from BETA3: It is not possible to use snmp_subtype in devices table as that breaks the table, showing it as empty.
  • Workaround: do not enable the snmp_subtype column (it is not enabled by default). If you enable it and it breaks the table, simply disable it in settings, the table will return to fully functional state.
  • This appears if you upgrade from BETA2 -> BETA3 -> BETA4. In case you install BETA4 as new, the bug should not manifest itself. Please report if it appears anyway.
