5.0.03: Service Pack 3 for version 5.0

Support for viewing and updating step details

You can now view and update steps added for a request from the RLM Requester UI. In earlier releases, only a list of steps for a request were displayed. With this release, you can click any step to view the step details and update some of the fields for a specified step. For more information, see Viewing and editing step details.

You can only view or update the step details. To add or delete steps to a request, continue using the RPM Classic UI.

Enhanced data retrieval for improved performance

Audit and activity logging improvements

While creating audit records in the backend for any user activity, multiple SQL queries were getting executed that affected the overall performance of the RPM application. In this release, several changes are made to the audit and activity logging functionality for optimal performance, such as:

• Added consumer for audit and activity queue to avoid maximum delivery attempt, which results in improved logging performance
• Added logging for audit background jobs that displays the number of messages that are processed per queue

Changes to the pagination logic in BRPM

Improved SQL query performance by optimizing pagination logic across RPM. This ensures that the application performance is not affected even if large number of records are present.

Global access to all applications for teams

In earlier versions, while creating or editing teams, you select applications to be assigned to the team individually. With this release, you can provide access to a team for all current applications with a single-click. In addition, teams that have access to all applications also get access to any new applications added to BRPM.

For more information, see Managing-teams.

Enhanced creating and editing options for managing teams

While creating or editing a team, a new dialog box is added to enable association of application and groups to the team. For more information about creating and editing teams, see Managing-teams.

Enhanced input options for creating and editing servers

While creating or editing a server, a new dialog box is added to enable association of server groups and environments to the server. For more information about creating servers, see Managing servers.

Enhanced input options for creating and editing server groups

With this enhancement, creating or editing fields in a server group is easier with addition of a new dialog box. For more information about creating and editing server groups, see Managing-servers.

Enhanced TorqueBox Super User Details installation screen

A new field is added to the TorqueBox Super User Details installation screen to specify the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) for the TorqueBox host name.

Specifying the host name in an FQDN format resolves issues occurring in live updates for a request. For more information, see Installing-BMC-Release-Process-Management. For silent installation updates, see Installing-BMC-Release-Process-Management-silently.

BMC Release Lifecycle Management (BRLM) common installer replaced with standalone installers

System information added in server logs

With this release, additional Java memory details are logged in the RPM server log. By default, the system information is logged at a 10 minutes time interval. For more information about the memory details available in the logs and for configuring time interval for system info job, see Managing-logs.
