Previously, when you attempted to modify a record that triggered an After Update family policy containing a Baseline Rule node, and if the baseline rule configured for the Baseline Rule node updated the same record that triggered the policy, a time-out error occurred and the record was not modified. This issue has been resolved.DE110458

Table 3. Resolved Issues

The following issues that existed in one or more previous versions have been resolved.

DescriptionTracking ID
Previously, when the job configured to delete the execution history logs ran, the following issues intermittently occurred:

Table 4. Resolved Issues

The following issues that existed in one or more previous versions have been resolved.

DescriptionTracking ID
Previously, when you started the Policy Execution Service or Policy Trigger Service, if the Microsoft Message Queuing (MSMQ) stopped responding or could not be accessed, the service failed to start. This issue has been resolved.US341549
Previously, in the Properties window for a Math node, when you specified the names of some variables, an error message appeared in the notification bar, indicating a conflict between variable names, even when there was no apparent conflict in the specified names. This issue occurred when two variable names contained the same string and one of them contained an underscore or numeric value after the string. This issue has been resolved. Now, in these scenarios, the following events occur:
  • If one of the variable names contains an underscore after the string, no notification appears in the notification bar.
  • If one of the variable names contains a numeric value after the string and if there is a possibility of conflict between the variable names during the execution of the policy, a warning appears in the notification bar.

Previously, in the Properties window for a Create Recommendation node, in the Create Work Request section, if you selected Yes, the execution of the policy failed, and no work request was created in the configured Enterprise Asset Management (EAM) system for the new Policy Recommendation record. This issue has been resolved.DE99104
