[8.3]

PerformanceGuard 8.3 integrates with CapaSystems’ cloud platform CapaOne. PerformanceGuard customers get free access to CapaOne Reliability (contact CapaSystems sales to have it added to the contract); it can only be integrated after upgrading both server and agents to 8.3.

This release contains an important security update — if you use CapaSystems Cloud Services, update as soon as possible to avoid degraded service.

Added

CapaOne Reliability — collects reliability information from all computers and shows it on a dashboard (requires the new CapaOne agent). PerformanceGuard integrates with it, so you can left-click a unit for direct access to its reliability information.
Agent detection of new Windows versions: Microsoft Windows 11 and Windows Server 2022.
CapaOne integration in the agent — collects the CapaOne agent identification; the CapaOne agent collects the reliability index and the Windows events that impact reliability.

Administrators now have access to all dashboards.
Web extensions are allowed without a computer policy.
Improved use of database indexes and statements.
