Upgrade Notes
This section contains specific upgrade notes for customers planning to upgrade to EdgeView 16.1.1. For details on supported releases and upgrades, see Upgrade EdgeView.
For an EdgeMarc Swap (eSWAP) use case, EdgeView can be configured to automatically import legacy EdgeMarc devices and collections from 14.x.x to 16.x.x. Once configured, any future 14.x.x modifications are automatically reflected on 16.x.x. To synchronize an EdgeView 14 with an EdgeView 16, refer to Synchronize EdgeView 14 with EdgeView 16.
Resolved Issues - Severity 1
| Issue ID | Case No. | Sev | Problem Description | Resolution | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | SCC-8396 | 201210-349658 | 1 | ESWAP does not transfer the SIP settings from EdgeMarc 4550 to EdgeMarc 2990. | The EdgeMarc GUI SIP settings page on the newer EdgeMarc device (2900) reflects the values from the older EdgeMarc router configuration. |
Resolved Issues - All Other Severities
| Issue ID | Case No. | Sev | Problem Description | Resolution | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | SCC-8430 | 201221-351179 | 3 | The EdgeView GUI for Release Candidate (RC) does not show the updated build. Note: GA software is not affected. | 'Docker image' output lists build reference (git hash) in the TAG. 16.0.4RC1 images match the git hash - eccb88b. |
| 2 | SCC-8437 | 201223-351332 | 4 | The '/' in the Call ID gets treated as a path navigation to a non-existent page. The SIP call ID sometimes shows the error '404 - Not Found', when users try to view the call ladder and SIP call record. There is also no option to go back to the previous page. | Resolution: Call ID parameter has been updated from a path parameter to a query parameter. With the fix, If a call ID includes a "/" as part of the call ID, the call details are properly displayed in the page. |
| 3 | SCC-8328 | 201124-347101 | 3 | After performing Replace Device action, the action log on the EdgeView falsely displays ESWAP failure when the configuration was successfully transferred. | Change the DHCP parameter configuration setting to static. Remove the variable PPPoE_PING=off from the configuration file. |
| 4 | SCC-8483 | - | 3 | Prepared statements discarded in the last minute because cache limit reached" are observed in the Cassandra log file: | This is due to the prepared statements not formed properly. In CDR report generation query statements are formed by concatenating parameters instead of using placeholders and binding them. This has been fixed. |
| 5 | SCC-8465 | - | 3 | MOS aggregation service causes a huge load on the EdgeView SCC. | Do not start a new process for each collection. |
| 6 | SCC-8480 | - | 3 | The internal grid listener service leaks memory by not deleting listeners from its map. The map size continues to grow over time. | Fixed memory leaks in internal grid listener service. |
| 7 | SCC-8435 | 201209-349415 | 3 | Unable to replace the same pair of legacy and replacement devices on which a successful ESWAP was performed earlier. | Perform cfg_restore in device and remove the device from the EdgeView 16 GUI. |
| 8 | SCC-8220 | 201026-342386 | 3 | EdgeView 16.1.0 GUI does not update MOS scores due to an unhealthy Cassandra container. | Remove the purging and compaction services permanently from Cassandra. |
| 9 | SCC-8489/SCC-8465 | 210120-354905 | 3 | Aggregation processes cause performance issue and cassandra container becomes unhealthy, unable to response to request to retrieve Average MOS score. Fixed aggregation processes not to spawn multiple processes to aggregate collection data. | N/A |

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | SCC-8235 | 201106-344247 | 3 | All policy-triggered upgrades onEdgeMarc fails for VOS 16.0.x versions. | Log in as ztpuser, set firmware ignore for the policy and save the changes. |
