22.1 

Configure the number of targets for running jobs simultaneously

You can now configure the maximum number of targets where a patch job can run simultaneously. The default setting is 60. For more information, see Configuring the number of targets for running jobs.

Support for the asset tag filter

On the Patch, Vulnerability, and Compliance dashboards, you can use the asset tag filter to filter out assets based on the asset tags created on the Scanned and Managed assets pages. This filtered list enables you to create operations to quickly remediate vulnerabilities on these assets. For more information, see Using dashboards.

Edit patch remediation operations

You can now update a patch remediation operation that is created to remediate missing patches. For details, see Working with operations.

Share discovered assets with non-admin users

You can now provide a list of security groups who can view the discovered assets apart from the admin users. The security groups that are already imported in Automation Console can view the Discovery Assets page. This page is visible to the assigned security groups only after the discovered assets data is refreshed. For more information, see Configuring the BMC Discovery connector.
