New features - 1. Added support for the ProLiant DL380 G3 and ProLiant DL 360 G3. 2. Added support for HP rebranded firmware. 3. Added support for Virtual Media disconnect detection. If the Virtual Media applet connection is lost (due to wireless roaming, or disconnection of diagnostic port cable without logging out, etc.) then the connection will timeout after 30 seconds of no response, thereby allowing re-connection to take place. 4. Added support for Integrated Management Log wrapping. The IML now wraps, overwriting the oldest entries, so that recent events are not lost, and the full log is viewable from within the Integrated Lights-Out log viewer. 5. Added support for Remote Console 2D draw engine. Remote Console performance is improved in Windows 2000 and Windows .NET. The latency between a typed character and the appearance of the character is reduced. The software mouse pointer is more responsive, and the information underneath the software mouse pointer when dragging is updated more frequently. Problems fixed from last release - 1. Scripted hot key support was improved to automatically activate the hot keys after the script is executed. 2. Corrected a situation where the ProLiant BL20p would power back on after powering off. 3. Corrected a situation where user settings might be lost if a web page was saved prior to the page completing its download process. 4. Corrected a situation which could cause incorrect NIC speed reporting in Insight Manager. 5. Corrected a situation where Remote Console would lock up immediately after removing the iLO License Activation Key. 6. Corrected the power calculations in the Power Management Page (ProLiant BL20p only). 7. Corrected a SSL security vulnerability as described in Vulnerability Note VU#102795 (http://www.cert.org/).
