Binding Break Repair Requests Now Denied After “Repairs Allowed” Value Change

•

Illegal Characters in “Alias” in Capability Request No Longer Cause “Devices” Page Error

Binding Break Repair Requests Now Denied After “Repairs Allowed” Value Change

When the option Maximum Number of Repairs Allowed (in the Producer Portal on the View Server page) was set to a new value that was less than the value for Repairs Allowed, and a subsequent repair was requested that would exceed the maximum number of repairs allowed, the repair request erroneously succeeded. This has now been fixed, and any repair request that exceeds the maximum number of repairs after a change of the Repairs Allowed value allowed fails as expected.

Illegal Characters in “Alias” in Capability Request No Longer Cause “Devices” Page Error

Previously, when the Alias field in the capability request contained multiple control characters (see note below), the Devices page did not load as expected. This issue no longer occurs.

Note:Control characters are characters that do not represent a printable character but instead serve to initiate a specific action. A control character is entered using a combination of the Ctrl key and a letter. The caret symbol (^) is used to indicate the Ctrl key. Example: ^A represents Ctrl+A.

The following control characters are not allowed in device names or the device ID:

^B ^D ^E ^G ^N ^O ^P ^Q ^R ^S ^T ^U ^W ^X ^Y ^[ ^\ ^]
