Preparing for a First Installation

For First-Time Installation of the Application Server, ensure that dependent utilities are at the minimum levels specified in the Software Requirements.

Starting an Upgrade

Configure MySQL for Quartz Cluster

If you are running a Quartz Cluster, you need to configure MySQL to set the transaction level to read-committed and the replication mode to row level.

Finishing an Upgrade

Republish Packages

Important: All published packages that will be used for installations need to be re-published after the upgrade.

Update Dependent Utilities

After an Upgrade, it is strongly recommended that you update the JDK and MySQL to these minimum levels:

• JDK 7.0, release _06 or higher
• MySQL 5.5

(The platform can be upgraded without updating these utilities, but it has been fully tested with them, both for functionality and for optimum performance.)

Install Open Office

OpenOffice is now used to generate compound PDF documents from the new Word and Excel print templates.

Before users work with that feature, therefore, OpenOffice needs to be installed and launched at system startup.

Notable Changes

Functional Changes

Support for Report Subqueries

A new tenant-management capability has been added, to allow for Subquery Filters in Views and Reports.

This functionality is resource-intensive, and should not be granted indiscriminately.

Packaging Restrictions Removed

Restrictions on the packaging process have been removed, in order to simplify development efforts:

• Items in a subscribed package, as well as the package itself, can now be republished by any tenant who has package publishing privileges.
• In addition, any tenant with the capability to create a package can include system objects, so Tenant Capabilities no longer includes the Package System-Generated Objects option.

"Development Tenancy" Capability Replaced by Sandboxes

The Service Provider Settings no longer contain a Development Tenancy option. Instead, Sandboxes should be used for development, now that packaging restrictions have been removed.

API Changes

Tenant Capability Changes

A new tag has been added: <subquery_filter>, with values true or false.
