[Important Notes]
- If you are using an NVIDIA GPU card and have updated the firmware to QuTS hero h5.2.1 (or their later versions), please update NVIDIA GPU Driver in the App Center.
[Security Updates]
- Applied multiple security updates to further enhance system security.
[New Features]
Control Panel
- Administrators can now edit the user ID (UID) of an administrator in Control Panel > Privilege > Users > Edit Account Profile.
Storage & Snapshots
- Storage & Snapshots now displays Qfiling-related storage information on shared folders that are configured as Qfiling space recycling folders.
[Enhancement]
SSH
- Improved SSH connectivity and added support for additional encryption algorithms such as ECDSA and ED25519. To give users more transition time, we have also temporarily reinstated support for umac-64@openssh.com and hmac-sha1; however, we highly recommend users to switch to other algorithms as soon as possible to ensure greater security.
System

- Updated the calculation method for required space in the "Clone Snapshot" window.
- Users can now manually enter IP addresses when specifying the source and destination network adapters in the Create a SnapSync Job wizard.
