I would like to understand if BMC updates this page for patches, and if so, could you please provide history tracking what has been updated.
Hi Antti Tapiola,
This page is updated only for the main releases as patches are only defect fixes and most of the time does not require any new profile level permission fixes.
You can track the changes for all the previous releases at https://docs.bmc.com/docs/display/public/REMF/Configuring+profile-level+permissions+for+new+features
Regards,
Punam
OK, that's good and how I expected to happen in most cases. If there is special case, please highlight it here if patches brings updates. I'm not talking about this specific release, but in general.
