Description

Version 6.0.28 of the BES Relay is now available!

The latest version of the BES Relay provides several enhancements and fixes including a critical security fix that was a result of a formal security audit and code review. Due to the nature of the security changes, BigFix recommends upgrading whenever possible. This Fixlet message will upgrade all BES Relays on the targeted computers.

BigFix highly recommends that you upgrade to this version of BES as it provides several critical security and bug fixes to the initial 6.0 release.

BES 6.0.28 components are fully compatible with earlier BES 6.0.x components, so the BES Server, Relays, Consoles, and Clients can be upgraded in any order. Please contact BigFix Technical Support (enterprisesupport@bigfix.com) if you have any questions regarding this upgrade.

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.
