Release notes for Agents

The versions of the agents are more or less independent from the SL1 releases. This is giving the flexibility to release and install agents in faster cycle. 

By making it a independent software component the need for release information becomes crucial. The information in the SL1 release notes does not comply anymore.

Is it possible to post the Release Note for agents on a site?

It should contain the normal topics, versions, fixed issues, new features, known issues, dependencies etc.

Thanks in advance.

The SL1 Agent doesn't have it's own Release Notes because we do not formally release it outside of SL1 releases.  We do occasionally provide a new version of the agent during support cases to fix the reported issue.  This is similar drop file provided during support cases to fix an SL1 issue.

Publishing Release Notes would require a method to release and install that agents.  This isn't a problem for Gen3 Agent users as the container including the agent packages are published to Harbor.  It is a problem for Gen1 Agent users as there isn't a way to install the agent packages outside of SL1 upgrades.

I'll discuss with Release Management and Documentation teams.

Regards,

Erick
