Note
At each update, databases, infrastructure services, or shared libraries are upgraded as required to improve stability and performance or eliminate vulnerabilities. Here is the current list of shared libraries available for use in ZenPacks.
June
In this update, Service Impact is refactored to use the latest version of its enabling database technology, which yields 3x to 7x performance improvements. The logging package that Service Impact uses is also updated, which eliminates a known vulnerability.

April
This update transitions all Collection Zone instances to a new SMTP service.
The From address of all emails are now either no-reply@zenoss.io
or
no-reply@zenoss.eu
. To prevent event storms, each recipient is limited to
1000 emails during the most recent 24-hour period. If the limit is reached,
the recipient receives a notification email of the condition, and no
additional emails are sent until the count falls below the limit.
February
This update fixes an issue that, under rare conditions, causes segmentation faults in our container orchestration software. Your Collection Zones will be updated during the first quarter of this year, starting this month.
