Let us know if you have any feedback / questions on this release, or if you run into any issues!Known issues:
The Default Connectors can be edited by users which do not have access to all devices
During a running Network Scan, the UI within the Scan Preset can be slow to respond
Running a Network Scan (even on schedule) with a Zone using a Remote Core that is offline doesn't generate a History Job
Attempting to run a Network Scan with very large subnets (eg. /2 mask) will cause Unimus to hang
"Re-discover affected devices when Ports or Connectors change" Advanced Settings option does not work
Some screens in Unimus show time in server's time zone, others in client's (browser's) time zone
Attempting to open Device CLI through an offline Core results in a wrong error message
If you attempt to run a Config Search with "Until" date that is in the future, Config Search will break
Backup Filters which match across the header and content of a Backup do not function correctly
