[BESAdmin-Announcements] BigFix DSS SAM 1.2.2 Now Available

[Announcements for BES Administrators]

Dear BigFix Community:

A DSS SAM maintenance release — version 1.2.2 — is now available. This release resolves a recently-discovered bug that could cause incomplete inventory in DSS SAM reports. Most customers are not affected by the issue, but those that are will see obvious failures in their DSS SAM import process and, as a result, have incomplete software inventory results. In addition, this release includes minor updates for a few other DSS SAM components. All changes in this release are documented in the product Release Notes: http://support.bigfix.com/product/documents/dss/ReleaseNotes_122B.pdf

The DSS SAM version 1.2.2 installer contains a full installation of the web application and database component of the product — an installation of a previous version of DSS SAM is not a pre-requisite. However, if a previous version of DSS SAM is already installed in your environment, you may upgrade to version 1.2.2 without uninstalling the previous version. To do this, download DSS SAM 1.2.2 and run the installer on the computer where DSS SAM is currently running, ensuring that the DSS SAM database server is running and accessible. The installer will automatically detect DSS SAM in your environment and replace it with version 1.2.2 in the same environment without affecting your application data or configurations.

All currently-licensed DSS SAM customers may now download the update and all associated product documentation using the same URL they received from BigFix Licensing when they purchased the product.

Thank you!
