Permission & Security Enhancements

With our latest product update, we are introducing additional permission enhancements for Avantra customers. From now on, a new global setting will be available to enable or disable the ability to execute scripts on remote hosts via the Avantra Agent. What’s more, Avantra users will also have the possibility to use protocol encryption for connections to remote SQL servers.

SLT Monitoring

To improve the efficiency of SLT monitoring, we have introduced a number of monitoring parameters for SLT checks. The new options will allow our customers to customize SLT status IDs, configuration names, and jobs to be included in checks. In addition, it will be possible to filter SLT configurations and define various warning and critical thresholds. We now also offer a new SAP system check, SLT_SrcTrgt, with which Avantra users can evaluate the difference between the source and target table record numbers.

Maintenance Windows

With the newest release, the process of managing maintenance windows has improved significantly. Among other things, we have added a new option to automatically delete inactive maintenance windows. Also, we have implemented an additional system setting that will allow you to set a default value for monitoring behavior when creating maintenance windows.
