Description

Version 7.2 of the BigFix Enterprise Suite is now available!

BigFix 7.2.5 is a patch update to the previous 7.2 release. The most important changes are BigFix Agent changes to address a number of issues in the BESClientUI. All BigFix 7.2.5 components are forward and backwards compatible with all other 7.2.x components and can be upgraded in any order. We recommend for customers running 7.1.x, 7.0.x, or 6.0.x versions to upgrade in the order specified below. All customers are recommended to upgrade to 7.2.5 for the latest fixes, updates, and enhancements. This Fixlet message will upgrade all BES Clients on the targeted computers.

Please upgrade your BES Server and BES Console before upgrading your BES Relays.

Please upgrade your BES Relays before upgrading your BES Clients!

More information about BES Relays can be found at http://support.bigfix.com/bes/misc/besrelays.html.

Note: The BES Client will briefly display DOS windows while the BES Relay services are being stopped.

Important Note: Upgrading your BES Relay may cause your clients to stop reporting on action status and retrieved properties for some time. Please upgrade your BES Relays at a time when this behavior is acceptable. Please contact BigFix Technical Support (enterprisesupport@bigfix.com) for more information.
