6 -**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** In this release,
6 +**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** This release we have done many improvements to the monitoring graphs in Manage. Moreover, we have made some improvements to the missing properties and unused properties overviews and did several bug fixes. Find out all improvements & bug fixes below!

8 8  == **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.
9 +//__Grafana improvements__//
10 +* The following graphs now show the unit of measurement per time frame (i.e. bytes/2h)
11 +** Queue Statistics - Overview
12 +*** Message Througput
13 +** Event Streaming Statistics - Overview
14 +** Bytes In
15 +** Bytes Out
16 +** Messages In
18 18  
19 -If your model is running on the [[current runtime>>doc:Main.eMagiz Academy.Fundamentals.fundamental-runtime-generation3||target="blank"]] architecture, you will be migrated on the day of release. eMagiz will transfer the queue alerts that you have currently configured to the closest match in the new alerting stack. Models that are in the process of migrating to the [[current runtime>>doc:Main.eMagiz Academy.Fundamentals.fundamental-runtime-generation3||target="blank"]] architecture during the time of the release of this feature will be able to pre-configure their new queue alert triggers, but will not be able to make active use of them until the runtime migration has finished.

21 -{{info}}Please note that the new queue alerting will not yet be available for queues with message redelivery. {{/info}}
20 +* The following graph now shows an improved unit of measurement
21 +** Runtime Statistics - Key Metrics
22 +*** Log events are counted as a sum instead of a maximum per data point.
23 +* The following data measurement graphs indicate whether the component was on or off when hovering over the data points.
24 +** Runtime Statistics - Other Metrics
25 +** Queue Statistics - Other Metrics

25 -//__Tenant technical name__//
26 - The technical name of a tenant cannot be changed once the tenant has been transferred to Create.
28 +* The Memory and CPU usage table in the Runtime statistics displays the maximum value in a given time period that is selected.
29 +* Pressing the 'show main dashboard' button returns back to the unfiltered master dashboard.
30 +* For detailed views the 'show main dashboard' button is on the left.
31 +* Graphs on a page share the same crosshair.
32 +* The styling on HTTP statistics when there are no (un)successful requests within a timeframe has been improved.
33 +* For selection dropdowns the selected variables are locked to the top for easy deselection.
27 27  
28 -//__Tenant transfer__//
29 -A tenant cannot be untransferred from Create if the connector container of that tenant is still active in Deploy.

31 -//__Property placeholder__//
32 -A property placeholder which contains a tenant name will be hidden in case its values and the technical name of the tenant are equal.
38 +//__Failover deployment plan__//
39 +The deployment plan steps with type 'Failover' are now deprecated, meaning they can no longer be added to a deployment plan.
33 33  
41 +//__Edit mode flow testing__//
42 +Test messages can now be edited or removed while in the edit mode of the flow testing functionality.
43 +
44 +//__Missing properties overview__//
45 +Setting the value of a missing property will now automatically remove it from the missing properties overview. Besides that, search and sort functionality have been added to the missing properties overview.
46 +[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@release-228-missing-properties.png]]
47 +
48 +//__Legacy release notes__//
49 +The legacy release notes tab has been removed.

57 +A pop-up with a warning will be shown when containers are configured with less memory than recommended.
58 +
59 +[[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@release-228-memory-settings.png]]
60 +
61 +//__Reuse test messages__//
62 +It is now possible to reuse the test messages created in other flows within the routing and vice versa.
63 +
64 +//__Unused properties__//
65 +We added logging for when properties are deleted from the unused properties screen.

34 34  == **Bug Fixes** ==
70 +//__Legacy properties__//

73 +//__Exceeding memory__//
74 +We fixed a bug where new machines could be deployed with exceeding memory.
75 +
76 +//__Copy paste__//
