6 -**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** This release, we have done several improvements for our Failover functionality and added two configuration options for our SMB session factory support objects. We have also updated our password policy, so from now on you are required to have a password with a minimum length of 14 characters! Apart from these improvements, we have done several bug fixes. Please find out all below!
6 +**Hi there, eMagiz developers!** In this release, we focused on finishing the first iteration of our new eMagiz Mendix Connector and the first iteration of our new base image. We will first utilize the new eMagiz Mendix Connector to get an even better feeling of its performance, but you will notice a UI change straightaway. Once we have passed that hurdle, we will share more information about it and release it to a broader range of customers. Regarding the base image, we will now introduce this to our flow testing offering to see if anything unexpected happens. This is an additional safety measure we have put in place to reduce the chance of something breaking in your model once the new base image is released. On top of that, we have some minor updates to improve the quality of the platform.

9 -//__Password policy__//
10 -Our password policy has been updated such that the minimum length is 14 characters, other requirements have remained the same. All users will be required to update their password when logging in. You will not be able to close this popup until your password has been updated successfully.
8 +== **Updated Base Image** - Flow Testing Only ==
9 +
10 +With this release we introduce the new [[runtime image>>Main.Release Information.Runtime Images||target="blank"]] to our flow testing functionality. This means that as of that moment your flow tests will run against the latest runtime image. We do this to decrease the likelihood of unexpected things happening on your actual environments once we release the image to the community.

12 -//__Failover__//
13 -Several improvements for our failover functionality have been done:
14 -* We have improved the warning message for the balance failover deployment plan step, making it more clear how to solve this issue should it occur during your deployment.
15 - [[image:Main.Images.Release Blog.WebHome@release-233-balance-failover.png]]
16 -* We have added the option to manually initiate the failover balancing process, saving you from having to execute your deployment. This action can be found in Deploy Architecture, when right clicking on the white canvas.
17 -* We have added a visualization of connector systems that are pending a failover enable or disable in Deploy Architecture. Besides that, you will also see this shown in the pending changes list when you apply your changes to the environment.

13 +* **Please take into consideration the following**:
14 +* This means that the flow testing results could differ from the results you get once you have deployed your functionality to an environment. If something like that happens please contact us via our [[support department>>mailto:support@emagiz.com]].

17 +== **New eMagiz Mendix Connector**~* ==
18 +
19 +The new eMagiz Mendix Connector is ready and will be first implemented in our own infrastructure to further assess the quality and stability of the new connector. Once this is done we will share more information to the community about the changes related to the new eMagiz Mendix Connector and make it available for a broader audience. In the mean time you will already notice a UI change that identifies Mendix systems by showing the Mendix icon on these systems.
23 23  
24 -//__SMB session factory__//
25 -We have added two additional configuration options to the SMB session factory support object.
26 -* Connect as guest: We have added the option to toggle whether the session factory should attempt to connect as a guest if the login attempt with the provided username and password is rejected.
27 -* Force SMB version 2: We have added the option to enforce the usage of SMB version 2. This effectively disables backwards-compatible version negotiation.

29 29  == **Bug Fixes** ==
30 -//__Support object alert__//
31 -If a component misses a support object, an alert is now shown in the Flow Designer, displaying which support object is missing.

35 -//__XML to flat file__//
36 -The XML to flat file and flat file to XML transformers have been restyled, such that they are similar to all other components.
37 -
38 -//__Queue browser__//
39 -When clicking the queue browser button, the user will not be redirected to the home page anymore.
40 -
41 -//__Edit freeze__//
42 -We fixed an issue where the browser page would get frozen when editing a flow component.
43 -
22 +//__Removing integrations from Create__//
23 +When removing an exit/entry connector linked to a system and using the same message type can now be removed from eMagiz without problems.
