New features
Dependency management
Dependency management provides visibility into the underlying frameworks that support's a product suite. The frameworks are updated by the Security Update Package Installer (SUPI) as part of the monthly Supporting Software update, which automatically:
- removes unnecessary .NET frameworks, freeing up resources and reducing potential security risks.
- processes new additions and upgrades.
- processes removals without dependent products.
Note
For removals with dependencies, guidance is provided directly within the product(s) that must be updated to allow for the safe removal of the dependency. You can run the removal again after you upgrade the dependent product(s).
Enhancements
SUPI service upgrade
- We've upgraded the SUPI service from .NET 6 to .NET 8.
Known Issues:
- If a 4.0/SUPI 3.2 box has multiple updates that include "cumulative" subscriptions, the packages that would be skipped are incorrectly included in the Estimated Time Required. This can significantly overstate the estimate.
Notes:
- Upgrade to .NET 8.0.0 or later (available through BT Updater via Supporting Software SUPI subscription).
