Release 2.7 - 2702: New Major Release!

Device Comparison, Performance Improvements when discovering remote sites, and discovery data quality analysis.

 

New Feature: Discovery Quality Meter

JDisc Discovery's new data quality meter helps new users and consultants that do not
often use JDisc Discovery. The data quality meter quantifies the discovery result of well
discovered systems relative to the total number of systems by operating system family.

New Feature: Compare Devices

JDisc Discovery's new compare device feature simplifies the analysis of problems and
failures that have their root cause in software or configuration differences.

Improved: Performance Improvements for Windows remote login

The Windows remote login agent-server communication latency has been reduced to
a minimum and also the buffer sizes for reading standard output and error streams
has been increased. All together this leads to performance improvements of 6 to 10
times faster discoveries for remote computers!

Improved: Improved Rules to Detect Discovery Problems

New and improved rules detect more access and discovery problems helping users
understand why discovery results are not that good as possible. In addition to
highlighting access and discovery problems, JDisc Discovery's rules often suggest hints
on how to improve the discovery result.

Improved: New Troubleshooting Reports

The new rule based troubleshooting reports diagnose access and configuration
problems for all devices in JDisc Discovery's database.
