===============================================================================
Release note Intelligent Power Manager 1.60 Release 
(March 2018)
===============================================================================

New features:
=============
* Nutanix Cluster shutdown based on Acropolis Hypervisor
* New option to manage manually Duplicated nodes on discovery process 
* IPM OVA package 64bit (based on Debian) including Open VM tools
* Dynamic group implementation for configuration policy
* vSAN : cluster shutdown managed by IPM (check Known issues section for configuration restriction)(1.56)
* Microsoft Hyper-V integration : remote agentless shutdown and remote agentless maintenance mode (1.56)

Improvements:
=============
* Correlation ID algorithm : reinforcing compare rules to determine duplicate nodes (IP address-SN-IPv6)
* NetApp compatibility with 9.1 OS (starting from 8.3)(1.56)
* HPE OneView 3.0 compatibility (1.56)
* VMware : Manage SRM connector and Manage Infrastructure shutdown (1.56)
* SCVMM is removed from connectors list (1.56)
* New Eaton Management Pack for OpenStack (Ocata release) brings Virtual Machine Power Optimized Placement capability to OpenStack users thank to IPM (1.56)

Bugs fixes:
===========

* HPE OneView compatibility restored with version 2.x and previous
* Hyper-V connectors available for IPM OVA package
* VMs graceful shutdown fixed for MS Hyper-V infrastructure connector
* VMs location update after a migration of VMs to one Esxi host
* ESXi 6.0: Hypervisor and Virtual Machine monitoring issues on IPM
* APC UPSs discovery 
* Prevent Shutdown by IPM when UPSs switch on mechanical Bypass
* SCVMM connectors configuration still working after an upgrade but no more configurable (replaced by the new MS Hyper-V Connector)

New Known issues:
=================
* IPM is not compatible with Java 9 & 10
* IPM doesn't manage the vSAN cluster shutdown if Critical VMs are defined when configuring shutdown policy
* IPM Configuration Export/Import is not working by default in https mode. 
  Workaround : before importing IPM configuration on new server, it's mandatory to copy/paste the "key.pem" file from the old IPM instance to the new one.
* OpenStack connector is not functional in 1.60 even if it's possible to create it on IPM.

Cyber-security:
===============
Please, read carefully the cybersecurity note provided in Product Literature for information and recommendations about cyber-security.
* Unsecure HTTP connection deactivated by default
* Third party components library updated to the last components version



===============================================================================
Release note Intelligent Power Manager 1.56 Limited Release for Windows
(November 2017)
===============================================================================

New features:
=============
* vSAN : cluster shutdown managed by IPM (check Known issues section for configuration restriction)
* Microsoft Hyper-V integration : remote agentless shutdown and remote agentless maintenance mode

Improvements:
=============
* New Eaton Management Pack for OpenStack (Ocata release) brings Virtual Machine Power Optimized Placement capability to OpenStack users thank to IPM 1.56.
* NetApp compatibility with 9.1 OS (starting from 8.3)
* HPE OneView 3.0 compatibility
* VMware : Manage SRM connector and Manage Infrastructure shutdown
* SCVMM is removed from connectors list.

Bugs fixes:
===========
* VEEAM plateforms compatibility

New Known issues:
=============
 * SCVMM connectors are not working along with Hyper-V connectors: consider to remove SCVMM connectors before upgrading to 1.56 version
 * vSAN : Stretched vSAN configuration is not supported in IPM  1.56. Configuration requirement:  3 servers or more
 * Hyper-V connectors are not working when using IPM OVA package
 * HPE OneView connector is not compatible anymore with HPE OneView 2.x versions 
 * VM status icon might appear in different states between node list view and selection view
 * VM location might not be updated when migrated through vCenter connector
 * VMware ESXi 6.0 host status changes are sometimes not displayed in IPM 1.56 GUI 
 * Hypervisors and VMs are not displayed anymore in the Infrastructure Connectors view. Shutdown configuration is still possible through a right-click in the node list on the corresponding nodes.
 * Cisco UCS connector might cause disconnection of existing connectors 
 * Correlation ID algorithm issue.  Under certain circumstances, IPM will not behave as expected.
	The most common cases are when a node changes its IP address or UUID (virtual machines).  
	The system may incorrectly identify it as a new device instead of identifying it as a known 
	device as expected; thereby impacting the protection of the device.
