- Folder Enumeration performance enhancement for folders with lots of sub-folders.
- Added NonRefreshable 'StartupDelaySeconds' registry key to allow delayed startup of the Server.
- ExtremeZ-IP adds itself as a firewall exception to all network zones.
- Added Refreshable 'FullCrashDump' registry key to get large process dumps when needed.
- Improved the Shadow Connect feature by eliminating the requirement to manually create registry keys with language-dependent keyword search strings, when a language other than English is use on the ExtremeZ-IP server. This feature is now language independent and as a result of this change, any language-specific registry keys for Shadow Connect (a.k.a. VSS, or "Volume Shadow Service") are no longer needed and are automatically removed from the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\ExtremeZ-IP\Parameters4\VSS\Refreshable\ registry location.
- Fixed a crash at shutdown where DFS was attempting to update itself after ExtremeZ-IP volumes had been shut down.
- Fixed a problem where an incorrect number of sessions would be displayed in the Administrator UI.
- Fixed a problem where if a volume was configured for 'Reset permissions on move', a rename of a folder or file would trigger that behavior.
- Fixed a problem where copying folders within a mount point volume could crash the Finder.
- Fixed a problem where DFS could hang at server startup.
- Fixed a problem where files whose modification date was earlier than their creation date would not display in Finder.
- Fixed a problem where a single character DFS Namespace would not work in the Mac DFS client.
- Fixed a problem where Spotlight ASSERT debug logging was increasing CPU usage and impacting performance.
- Fixed a crash at shutdown when processing Stalled Sessions.
- Fixed a problem where enabling/disabling full debugging through the ExtremeZ-IP Administrator could leave ExtremeZ-IP in full debugging mode.
- Fixed a crash when ExtremeZ-IP encountered a DFS configuration that contains more than 200 sites. The maximum number of sites supported is now 500 and the system will log an error if this limit is exceeded.
- Fixed a crash that could occur when spooling the debug log.
