6 -**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** This release ....
6 +**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** The past few weeks we have worked hard to release our new queue alerting design. Please find out all new features in our [[Standard Alerting eMagiz>>doc:Main.eMagiz Academy.Microlearnings.Crash Course.Crash Course Platform.crashcourse-platform-manage-alerting-gen3||target="blank"]] microlearning. Note that the new queue alerting will not yet be availalbe for queues with message redelivery. Next to alerting, we have worked on tenant items, machine pop-ups and progress bars, as well as the Infinispan Cache Manager. Find out all below!

12 -[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@release-blog-213-joyful-journeys-property-release.png]]
13 -
14 -//__Runtime deletion__//
15 -When deleting a runtime, the error message that is displayed is more descriptive. The error messages will now include the names of the flows that run on the container.
16 -
17 -//__Wiretap & debug error messages__//
18 -The error messages that may be displayed when using wiretaps and the debugger have been improved, these are now more user friendly.
19 -
20 -//__Action messages__//
21 -The formatting of action messages regarding changes in retention bytes/hours has been improved. The action message will now display the correct, actual behaviour.
22 -
23 -== **User Journey** ==
24 -//__Update flows__//
25 -In Create > Resources, a button "Update flows" has been added to update versions of all flows in which a resource is used.
26 -
27 -//__Input fields__//
28 -Multiple input fields have been updated such that they expand when the amount of characters exceeds the default size. These updates were done to cater to large expressions.
29 -
30 -//__UI improvements__//
31 -UI improvements for static input components have been done and the tooltip for optional/required toggles has been improved.
32 -
33 -//__Q&A forum search__//
34 -The option to search by pressing the Enter key has been added to the Q&A forum.
35 -
36 36  == **Feedback Items** ==
9 +//__Queue alerting__//
10 +Alerting for message queues has been improved for the [[current runtime>>doc:Main.eMagiz Academy.Fundamentals.fundamental-runtime-generation3||target="blank"]] architecture, which includes the following improvements:
11 +* New UI that shows all queues and the alerting that is active on them.
12 +* Every queue in the model will be automatically added to the list of queues in Manage - Alerting.
13 +* Triggers of a queue will be automatically enabled or disabled based on whether that queue is included in the release.
14 +* Added 2 new trigger types "inactivity check" and "periodic activity check" that replace the "queue throughput" alert.
15 +** These checks can now run for a (very) long time, whereas the "queue throughput" was limited by 1 hour.
16 +* The alert generation has been solidified to reduce the likelihood that your alerting is affected with false positives or false negatives during eMagiz maintenance.
17 +* When the same check of multiple queues trigger at the same time, the alerts will be aggregated into a single summarized email instead of a single email per alert.
37 37  
38 -//__Memory settings__//
39 -It is now possible to change the memory settings of a container before pressing "Apply to environment". Before, it was only possible to view the memory settings if a container was running on AWS or running on a docker machine.
19 +[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@release-226-alerting.png]]
40 40  
41 -//__Runtime validation__//
42 -Validation for runtimes that are moved from on premises to the cloud or vice versa has been improved.
43 43  
44 -//__Runtime overview image versions__//
45 -Insight into invented and actual deployments has been improved. If the release version number on runtimes is different compared with the release, this is shown in the runtime overview.
22 +{{info}}Please check out our [[Standard Alerting eMagiz>>doc:Main.eMagiz Academy.Microlearnings.Crash Course.Crash Course Platform.crashcourse-platform-manage-alerting-gen3||target="blank"]] microlearning for an elaborate explanation of our new queue alerting design. {{/info}}
46 46  
47 -== **Bug Fixes** ==
24 +eMagiz will migrate your dynamic queue alerts on the **release day** when you are **fully** or **partially** migrated to the [[current runtime architecture>>doc:Main.eMagiz Academy.Fundamentals.fundamental-runtime-generation3||target="blank"]]. When doing so, we will configure the new queue alert in a similar fashion to best match its current behaviour. Note that the queue alerting will only function for models that are **fully** migrated to the [[current runtime architecture>>doc:Main.eMagiz Academy.Fundamentals.fundamental-runtime-generation3||target="blank"]]. Should you want to change or create new queue alerts, you can do so starting the day **after** the release to avoid conflicts with our migration.
48 48  
49 -//__Removal of onramp__//
50 -We fixed an issue where it was not possible to remove the last onramp linked to a splitted entry (that was an all-entry before).
26 +{{warning}}Please note that the new queue alerting will not yet be available for models with message redelivery. {{/warning}}
51 51  
52 -//__Component changes reversion__//
53 -In the flow designer a bug could occur where the changes to a component would be reverted if the editing pop-up would be kept open for some minutes without having saved the changes yet. This has been fixed.
28 +//__Tenant technical name__//
29 +For multi-tenant system integrations, the technical name of a tenant cannot be changed once the tenant has been transferred to Create.
54 54  
55 -//__State generation statistics__//
56 -The state generation graphs will now show the correct number of cache hits and misses.
31 +//__Tenant transfer__//
32 +A tenant cannot be untransferred from Create if the connector container of that tenant is still active in Deploy.
57 57  
58 -//__Runtime statistics details__//
59 -We fixed an issue where heap memory usage data was accumulating when zooming out in the runtime statistics details dashboards.
34 +//__Property placeholder__//
35 +A property placeholder which contains a tenant name will be hidden in case its values and the technical name of the tenant are equal.
60 60  
61 -//__Queue browser timestamps__//
62 -All timestamp formatting in the queue browser is now aligned to yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss.SSS.
37 +//__Machine pop-up__//
38 +* The machine pop-up in Deploy Architecture now shows the name of the machine in the pop-up header.
39 +* The machine health indicator has been improved visually.
40 +* Several progress bars have been improved visually.
63 63  
64 -//__Deployment prechecks__//
65 -During deployments prechecks will be done on runtimes that still have to be deployed from deploy architecture.
42 +[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@release-226-machine-name.png]]
43 +
44 +//__Infinispan Cache Manager__//
45 +The Infinispan Cache Manager has been updated to:
46 +* Provide an additional 'transport type' to offer more means for creating a clustered setup;
47 +* Provide clearer helptexts explaining which of the options is needed and what its effect is;
48 +* Include validation on fields depending on the selected 'transport type'.
66 66  
67 -//__Addition and deletion of internal recipients__//
68 -Internal recipients are now added and deleted correctly. Before, an internal recipient could be added and thereafter deleted automatically when refreshing the page.
