[BESAdmin-Announcements] Content Modification in Server Automation 9.5

[Announcements for BES Administrators]

Content in the Server Automation site has been modified.


Reasons for Update:

New! Support for notification via email has been expanded and it now supports the possibility to specify the email sender in each individual plan
New! The Server Automation Plan Engine module supports the Distributed Server Architecture deployment model and can manage automation plans execution accordingly.
New! A new, lightweight, NodeJS-based module is now available (named SARestNode) which provides support for the Server Automation REST API and initially supports the exact same set of APIs as the currently available SARest module.

Note: New SARestNode module provides the same level of function as the existing SARest module. The two modules can coexist, provided that they are configured to work on different ports. SARest module is still available, but it is deprecated and is subject to removal in subsequent releases.
