5 -**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** We have done .....
6 +**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** In this release, we have done much work to improve our logging and overviews. This should improve the user experience for our platform. Next to this, we have done several minor changes and bug fixes, mainly relating to the Deploy and Manage phase.
6 6  
7 -{{warning}}Please be aware that for this release, because of the duration of the deployment, we advise you to check your TEST and ACCP cloud slots status, since you might need to start them manually in case your model is using the automatic wake up functionality. For following releases we will set the automatic wake up time to 6:00 AM UTC instead of 5:00 AM UTC. {{/warning}}
8 +== **Logging** ==
9 +//__Missing log entries__//
10 +We improved crash handling so that log messages clearly show when and why a container failed to start.
8 8  
9 -== **Quicker Deployment Plan** ==
10 -We fixed an issue which caused the release preparation step to take longer than necessary and caused the machine deployment steps to execute when they could be skipped. So, the deploynment plan will be finished much quicker now!
12 +//__Runtime logging__//
13 +We fixed a bug where no new log messages were showing up, even though they were produced by a container.
11 11  
12 -== **Next Generation Architecture Default** ==
13 -With this release, the next generation architecture will become the default. New models will use this generation as default.
15 +//__Deployment execution error message__//
16 +In some cases when a machine type step in the deployment plan execution errors, the portal may give an error when trying to display the error message. This has been fixed by now showing a generic error in the deployment plan and logging the full error in the Deploy history. The Deploy history will show a summary of the error and show the full error message in a new pop-up.

18 +== **Overviews** ==
16 16  
17 -== **Cloud Template R11 Docker - Single Lane** ==
18 -This release introduces a new cloud template for all our customers running in a single-lane setup on the next generation architecture. This cloud template introduces faster machine boot up and improved auto-healing. The complete release notes on the cloud template can be found [[here>>doc:Main.Release Information.Cloud Templates.R11 Docker - Single Lane.WebHome||target="blank"]].
20 +//__Runtime overview__//
21 +We added a new overview in the Deploy phase, called 'Runtime Overview', which shows the information of all runtimes on running machines.
19 19  
20 -== **Cloud Template R13 Docker - Double Lane** ==
21 -This release introduces a new cloud template for all our customers running in a double-lane setup on the next generation architecture. This cloud template introduces faster machine boot up and improved auto-healing. The complete release notes on the cloud template can be found [[here>>doc:Main.Release Information.Cloud Templates.R13 Docker - Double Lane.WebHome||target="blank"]].

23 -== **Feedback Items** ==
25 +//__Missing properties overview__//
26 +The missing properties overview has been updated to show the runtimes and flow versions of missing property values.
24 24  
25 -//__Unused properties overview__//
26 -In Deploy > Releases, it is now possible to see all unused properties of an environment. This can be viewed by clicking the three dots in the Create phase section. Here it is also possible to quickly delete all or a selection of those unused properties. Unused properties are properties that are:
27 -* Not used by any runtime that is in the Create phase release.
28 -* Not required by a flow that is in the Create phase release.
29 -* If used as nested property, none of its parent properties (checks recursively) are in the Create phase release.
28 +[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@release-blog-211-missing-properties-overview.png]]
30 30  
31 -//__Send build requests asynchronously__//
32 -The step in the deployment plan concerning the preparation of runtime images will now be executed more quickly and reliably.
30 +//__Runtime restart or redeploy overview__//
31 +Before executing the deployment plan to deploy machines, a pop-up will be shown with a list of the affected runtimes.
33 33  
34 -//__Queue explorer milliseconds__//
35 -The queue browser now displays milliseconds in the timestamps.
33 +[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@release-blog-211-restarted-redeployed-runtimes.jpg]]
36 36  
37 -//__Cancel and next buttons order__//
38 -The order of the cancel and next buttons when creating a new trigger has been changed to increase alignment across the platform. Now, all cancel buttons are placed on the right of a 'next' or 'save' button.
35 +== **Feedback Items** ==
39 39  
40 -//__Unused images__//
41 -When a release is removed, the related unused images in the on-premises machines will be removed as well.
37 +//__Breaking changes pop-up__//
38 +Pending changes that have a high risk level are now shown in red bold in the pop up that appears after clicking 'Apply to environment'.
42 42  
43 -//__Carwash logging__//
44 -A new logging feature enabling us to make better choices in encryption standards will be released.
40 +[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@release-blog-211-breaking-changes.jpg]]
45 45  
46 -//__Static alerts queue consumers__//
47 -Alerting will now only generate alerts for queues that are created and managed by the eMagiz JMS server.
42 +//__External recipients emailaddress__//
43 +The overview of external recipients has been updated. External recipients are now created on a model level, instead of comma separated list. This means that you can add them to your environment directly, like internal users.
48 48  
45 +//__Broker queue metrics dashboards__//
46 +It is now possible to select the MQTT broker in the queue metrics dashboards.
47 +
48 +//__Runtime image version__//
49 +The version of runtime images used to prepare your containers for deployments will be the same across all environments. This holds for releases that are deployed and promoted to a next environment.
50 +
51 +
49 49  == **Bug Fixes** ==
50 50  
51 -//__Flow Designer connection line__//
52 -In the Flow Designer an issue has been fixed where the connection line for drawing channels did work well when scrolling or zooming in/out on the canvas.
54 +//__Message throughput__//
55 +The message throughput graph in the Manage phase will now show the correct data, independent from the selected time internal. Before, this graph would not show any data in some cases.
53 53  
54 -//__Portal for migrated models__//
55 -We fixed a rare case where a runtime could not start, or logging, errors and metrics could not be seen in the portal for a model that had just migrated to the next generation architecture.
57 +//__Cloud template upgrade incorrect rollback__//
58 +An issue has been fixed where a cloud template upgrade would be rolled back incorrectly due to failed runtime checks.
56 56  
57 -//__Error channel inbounds__//
58 -We added a migration step, where we set the error channel to “errorChannel” of all inbounds in a flow if the custom error handling is set to false. Before, the error channel would be set to “errorChannel” only for the first inbound in an entry flow.
60 +//__Next generation block__//
61 +Apply to environment will now be blocked when trying to deploy Gen3 runtimes on a Gen2 model.
