6 -**Hi there, eMagiz developers!**
6 +**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** We have improved the performance of our deployment plan, it should be finished much quicker now. Next to this, we have released new Docker Single Lane and Docker Double Lane cloud templates. Moreover, several feedback items have been processed and some bug fixes have been made. Lastly, as of this release, the next generation architecture will be our default.

8 -== **Overviews and logging** ==
9 -//__Runtime overview__//
10 -We added a new overview in the Deploy phase, called 'Runtime Overview', which shows the information of all runtimes on running machines in an overview.
8 +{{warning}}
9 +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.

12 +== **Quicker Deployment Plan Execution** ==
13 13  
14 -//__Missing properties overview__//
15 -The missing properties overview has been updated to show the runtimes and flow versions of missing property values.
14 +We sped up the process of preparing runtime images in executing the deployment plan. The step in the deployment plan concerning the preparation of runtime images will now be executed more quickly and reliably. Moreover, we fixed an issue of the release preparation step taking longer than necessary which is caused by the machine deployment steps to be executed when they could have been skipped. So, the deployment plan will be finished much quicker now!

16 +== **Next Generation Architecture Default** ==
18 18  
19 -//__Runtime restart or redeploy overview__//
20 -Before executing the deployment plan to deploy machines, a pop-up will be shown with a list of the affected runtimes.
18 +With this release, the next generation architecture will become the default. From now on, new models will then use this generation as the default architecture.

24 -//__Missing log entries__//
25 -We improved crash handling so that log messages clearly show when and why a container failed to start.
22 +== **Cloud Template R11 Docker - Single Lane** ==
26 26  
27 -//__Runtime logging__//
28 -We fixed a bug where no new log messages were showing up, even though they were produced by the container.
24 +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"]].

28 +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"]].

33 -//__Breaking changes pop-up__//
34 -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'.

36 -[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@release-blog-211-breaking-changes.jpg]]
32 +//__Unused properties overview__//
33 +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:
37 37  
38 -//__External recipients emailaddress__//
39 -The overview of external recipients has been updated. External recipients are created on a model level, instead of comma separated list. This means that you can add them to your environment directly, like internal users.
35 +* Not used by any runtime that is in the Create phase release.
36 +* Not required by a flow that is in the Create phase release.
37 +* If used as nested property, none of its parent properties (checks recursively) are in the Create phase release.
40 40  
41 -//__Broker queue metrics dashboards__//
42 -It is now possible to select the MQTT broker in the queue metrics dashboards.
39 +[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@release-blog-209-unused-properties-overview.png]]
43 43  
44 -//__Runtime image version__//
45 -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.
41 +//__Queue explorer milliseconds__//
42 +The queue browser now displays milliseconds in the timestamps.
46 46  
44 +//__Static alerts queue consumers__//
45 +Alerting will now only generate alerts for queues that are created and managed by the eMagiz JMS server.
47 47  
48 48  == **Bug Fixes** ==
49 49  
50 -//__Message throughput__//
51 -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.
49 +//__Flow Designer connection line__//
50 +In the Flow Designer an issue has been fixed, where, previously, the connection line for drawing channels did not work well after the user scrolls or zooms in/out on the canvas.
52 52  
53 -//__Cloud template upgrade unjust rollback__//
54 -An issue has been fixed where a cloud template upgrade would be rolled back unjustly due to failed runtime checks.
52 +//__Portal for migrated models__//
53 +We fixed a rare case where a runtime either (1) could not start, or (2) logging, errors, and metrics could not be seen in the portal for a model that had just migrated to the next generation architecture.
55 55  
56 -//__Next generation block__//
57 -Apply to environment will now be blocked when trying to deploy Gen3 runtimes on a Gen2 model.
58 -
59 -//__Deployment execution error message__//
60 -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.
