OpenEdge Release 11.7.3 Service Pack includes the following improvements to OpenEdge Management:
Removal of Customer Experience Improvement Program page — In earlier OpenEdge releases, the Customer Experience Improvement Program page enabled Progress Software to collect data related to the usage trends and patterns of the product, and thereby improve the quality of the product. To eliminate collection of such data, this page has now been removed.
This page has been removed from the OpenEdge Management initial configuration pages, and the option to enable or disable this feature has been removed from the OpenEdge Management General Configuration (Options > General) page.
Support to stop a PAS application agent — This release provides the capability to stop a PAS application agent gracefully or forcibly. You can choose how you want to stop a PAS agent by specifying the wait time using the following options in OpenEdge Management:
Wait to finish — The time, in seconds, the agent waits to complete the requests that are currently running before stopping gracefully.
After waiting for the specified time, if Wait after stop is set to 0, the agent is stopped forcibly.
Wait after stop — The time, in seconds, the agent waits after completing Wait to finish and before stopping forcibly.
For more information about these options, see Progress Application Server for OpenEdge. For more information about managing PAS application agents using OpenEdge Management, see OpenEdge Management: Progress Application Server for OpenEdge Configuration.
