Upgrade Notes for VOSS Automate 21.3 Patch Bundle 1

Upgrade Overview

In a new release, there are a number of changes that could relate to exposing new features or capabilities in the system. The default out of the box system would expose these. However, on a system where the configuration around the user experience has been applied, this might mean some changes to configured menus, display policies, and so on to expose the new features in your setup.

Where relevant, we have included this information with the feature information to assist in planning for configuration changes as part of the upgrades. This setup could vary.

Important

  • Microsoft support within NBI

    From release 21.3 Patch Bundle 1 onwards, Microsoft support within NBI is not available. Contact VOSS Support or your VOSS Account Manager for details.

  • Upgrading MS Teams PowerShell Proxy

    When upgrading to release 21.3-PB1, users of Microsoft apps should update PowerShell Proxy Teams Module to 4.3.0.
