Support FW 4.0. Change value of FW to “4.0.99999.9999” by
default.

wizards.
Do not deploy Statistic Counters scripting library – it has
been moved to Agent core.
Ability to upgrade an agent without uX Collector being
uninstalled firstly.
Allow to enable/disable alerts/events collection by aspects –
application failure, performance, connectivity, security. Default
values:
Application level: connectivity and security are checked and
enabled, application failure is disabled, and performance is
unchecked and enabled.
Transaction level: connectivity and security are checked and
enabled; application failure and performance are unchecked and
enabled.
Remove event count monitors.
Remove license monitor and license checks during application
discovery.
Add ability to enable/disable exception tracing for LobMapper
via flag in LobMapper.config configuration file. By default
exception tracing is disabled.
Change default values for alerting/sensitivity thresholds and
for application/transaction load monitors
Alerting threshold: 15000
Sensitivity threshold: 100
Avg. Request Time monitor for application: 10000
Avg. Request Time monitor for application: 5000
Change consolidation hash calculation
Consolidation hash used in OpsMgr is case insensitive
Change consolidation value for security/connectivity alerts
(base alert description on event description instead of problem
description)
Provide a link to SEViewer event list from alert raised from
application load monitor
Link redirects to SEViewer view that contains event view with
the same event type (performance or exception) for an interval +-
30 minutes from alert raised time.
Ability to select computers group for application discovery.
By default application (deployed application template)
discovery is limited to .NET Agent Deployment group but user may
additionally select other computers group and discovery will run
only computers that are included in both groups.
User can select any of computers group that is defined in the
sealed management packs or in the unsealed management pack where
template is going to be deployed.
Modifications in setup: User cannot process setup next in case
of credentials for OpsMgr DB on Import XSLT screen has been
provided incorrectly (provided user has not enough rights for write
access to OpsMgr DB).

Version 5.6.524
What's New
Event based discovery:
Discovery has been changed to run once every 4 hours and also
when the system reports that changes have been made. Checking for
an installed agent does not interrupt the timing of discovery.

object
*A new monitor was added to check for error and warning events
in the Intercept events log from PMonitor, Starter, Stub, and
Instrumentation. If an event is for incorrect XML parsing or word
“monitoring”, the monitor changes state to critical. The monitor
only has a manual reset and does not return to a healthy state
automatically
New Run-As account for discovery of IIS objects
*Discovery of IIS7
Discovery of ASP.NET and Web Services endpoints
Ability to manually configure credentials for SEViewer
connection to check license
