2026 July

Server​

✅ OC-5760: Fixed an issue where [[SI.PROPERTY]] expressions resolved against the wrong schedule instance when multiple schedules shared the same name and date.

✅ OC-6266: Fixed a deprecated syntax issue to allow Switch Mirror operations to complete successfully on modern SQL Server versions.

✅ OC-6746: Improved the reporting service's performance significantly by managing data storage to keep it to a minimum, resulting in fixing the timeout issues during the ETL process.

✅ OC-7249: Fixed an issue with ACS getting bad escape sequences.

Solution Manager​

✅ OC-2787: Fixed an issue where creating a new SAP job from the Daily Job Definition page failed with a constraint violation. The OpCon schedule name and job name were missing from the JobCreate request, causing the SAP LSAM to return incomplete data that resulted in a null schedule ID on insert.

✅ OC-4366: Fixed some display issues related to sub-schedule in Studio Canvas.

✅ OC-4677: Fixed an issue where the ACS machine dropdown became empty when navigating back to the page.

✅ OC-5424: Fixed an issue where a Self Service with a certain regular expression pattern could not be saved.

✅ OC-5429: Fixed an issue where the Daily Job Definition panel was not showing agent-defined instance properties (such as JOBID and JNAME on z/OS jobs).

✅ OC-5849: Fixed an issue with restart offset limitation for Daily jobs.

✅ OC-5908: Fixed an issue where the browser back button was not behaving correctly when navigating in Studio and tab-based pages.

✅ OC-6348: Fixed an issue where filters on the Operations page were not functioning correctly.

✅ OC-6727: Fixed an issue where Audit History displayed incorrect times for cloud (US Central) deployments times were shown 5 hours ahead of the actual change time. Audit timestamps are now converted to UTC before being sent to the browser so times display correctly in the user's local timezone, and date filters continue to match correctly against the database's local time.

✅ OC-6845: Fixed an issue where the user could not switch from a multi-instance schedule with a machine group to one with an empty list of properties.

✅ OC-6911: Fixed an issue where instance names could not be deleted from a multi-instance schedule.

✅ OC-6986: Fixed an issue with date and time filtering on the Audit History Report page.

✅ OC-7108: Fixed an issue with certain filters on the Schedule and Job History Report page breaking results.

✅ OC-7131: Fixed an issue where the Dates pane on the Processes page was limited to 50 items.

✅ OC-7304: Fixed an error that occurred when visiting the schedule queue after renaming a schedule in that queue.

✅ OC-7309: Fixed an issue with saving the caption of a user input on a self service request.

✅ OC-7326: Fixed an issue with the Duration column in the Schedule and Job History Report page not showing time in HH:MM:SS format.

✅ OC-7331: Fixed an issue when browsing multiple levels of subschedules in PERT view.

✅ OC-7352: Fixed an issue where clicking the X button on the date/schedule count tag did not actually clear the selected dates and schedules.

✅ OC-7353: Fixed an issue with displaying the correct agents when clicking on an agent status donut in French language view.

✅ OC-7604: Fixed issue with disabling Latest Run Time (Offset) that would cause an error and block saving.

REST API​

✅ OC-47: Fixed an issue where posting a malformed or unreadable body to the CloudEvents API returned 500 (Internal Server Error) instead of 422 (Unprocessable Entity), causing MFT agents to retry the request indefinitely.

✅ OC-6119: Fixed slow master job loading under concurrent load. Each database query was opening a new connection and triggering a sign-in event, so a single page load could generate ~12 sign-in events causing contention when multiple users loaded jobs simultaneously. The fix reuses a single database connection per HTTP request, reducing sign-in events to one per request.

✅ OC-6795: Fixed an issue on case-sensitive SQL Server collations where a Windows batch user's login name stored with different casing would cause SAM to report "Windows Password not found" and the batch user to appear blank when editing master and daily jobs. The fix applies case-insensitive matching across the SAM password lookup, master job batch user retrieval, and daily job batch user display.

✅ OC-7710: Fixed a memory leak issue with recyclable memory stream manager.
