‎

New Features

Feature	Module	Notes/Benefits
VM CPU Usage	Monitoring	VM Level monitoring shows Guest CPU usage. This was added to give more details on how a VM was using its CPU
Host Memory Usage	Monitoring	Total Memory Used By VM's and Total Memory used by OS Partition. Customers will better understand how the Hosts are allocating memory to the VM's.
Host CPU Usage	Monitoring	This is the amount of CPU that the Hosts are using for Hyper-V, we will also show the total CPU % the operating system is using the host. This gives customers a better understanding of how CPU is being used on the Hyper-V Hosts.
Custom Report Timeframe	Reporting	Allows customers to change the timeframe to generate, first start to more customizable reports
MAC Address Pools	Management	Enterprise or Multi-Site clients can now use custom MAC address pools. This was a feature of SCVMM that we now include in CM
Replication Failure Notices	Management	Provides customers with alerts and emails on Replication status and failures.
Current VMQ Status	Management	We will show the status of the virtual machine queue (VMQ) properties of VMQ-capable network adapters. VMQ is a scaling networking technology for switch that hashes incoming packets based on the destination MAC address.
Checkpoints in Grid	Management	In the grid view of management pane we are showing the checkpoints on a given VM. Gives customers a easy view of VM's with checkpoints.
Turn Off Warning	Management	When you turn off a VM we will now show a warning about taking this action. Protection from accidentally turning off a VM.
Custom Column Saving	Management	If customers make changes to the grids in CM, we now save the custom changes.
Settings Button on RDP Screen	Management	Added a Settings button on the RDP screen for quick access to VM settings.
No VSS Backup	Backup	Offers customers running Windows 2016 to run backups without using VSS
Backup Failure Notifications	Backup	New alerts and notifications on backup progress, success and failures. Includes email alert options.
Links to Evolve	Installer	Links to evolve are now added to the installer, quick access to help.
Change Licensing Port	Licensing	In the past we used port 8443 for licensing, this is being changed to port 443 for easier registrations in closed and NAT environments
VLAN and VXLAN networks management	SDN	Create and manage Datacenter networks or isolated Tenant networks
Datacenter Firewall (ACL rules)	SDN	Create and manage access rules for North-South and East-West traffic in Datacenter or Tenant networks
Load balancing in VXLAN and VLAN networks	SDN	Create and manage load balancers for Datacenter networks or isolated Tenant network. Reduce cost of implementing LB features, replace NLB
Backup / Restore	SDN	Backup and Restore your SDN settings
