Features
Recast Management Server
New Logging Level Defaults
In response to customer feedback that our default logging levels can be a little verbose, particularly in larger environments, we've reduced the Event log level to 'None' for all components and Microsoft and System namespaces to 'Warning' for all components.
New Service Connections Search
On the Service Connections page, we've added a search function and updated some column header labels. For details, see View Service Connections.
Right Click Tools
BitLocker Compliance Dashboard Updates
You'll notice some changes to the pie charts on the BitLocker Compliance dashboards located in your ConfigMgr console and in your Recast Management Server interface.
Updates for both ConfigMgr and RMS dashboards:
- The BitLocker Recovery Key Storage chart now displays data for a simplified set of categories:
- Computers without stored keys
- Computers with keys stored in AD
- Computers with keys stored in ConfigMgr
- Computers with keys stored in MBAM
- Computers with keys stored in multiple locations
Updates for the ConfigMgr dashboard only:
- The dashboard title has been shortened to 'BitLocker Compliance' for consistency with other Right Click Tools dashboards.
- The charts and legends only display categories that include at least one device.
- In the table, a new Key Storage column displays recovery key storage locations.
Application Manager
Application Details on the Deployment Processes Page
You can now view, search, sort, add and remove the applications included in a deployment process right from the Deployment Processes page.
