Release Notes > Release Notes 6.1.6

Virima 6.1.6 introduces on-demand vulnerability scanning from CI Details, Dell warranty lookup through the TechDirect API integration, and new discovery capabilities including AWS Account Name support, Meraki Serial Number Mapping, and Cisco Wireless Controller AP discovery. This release also delivers fixes for Router Serial Number and Intune discovery, Azure VM property mapping in the CMDB, software usage reporting accuracy, and duplicate usage tracking for Discovery Agent services on Windows, macOS, and Linux.

  • Discovery
    Enhancement

    Abstract Of and Contains Relationships in Business Maps Network View
    Added support for Abstract Of and Contains relationships in the Network View of Business Maps. This enhancement enables Switch Stacks and similar clusters, including chassis, firewall, and access point clusters, to be included in the network visualization.

  • Enhancement

    AWS Account Name Support for Imports
    Enhanced AWS imports to fetch and display the AWS Account Name wherever supported, alongside the existing Account ID.

  • Enhancement

    Cisco Wireless Controller managed Access Points
    Added support to discover all Access Points managed by Cisco Wireless Controller devices.
    Note: The MAC Address must be configured as a correlator for the Access Point Blueprint to use this feature.

  • Enhancement

    Dell Device Warranty Lookup
    Added support for Dell device warranty lookup through the TechDirect API. Users can configure their API credentials to automatically retrieve warranty details for discovered Dell devices in the CMDB.

  • Enhancement

    Meraki Serial Number Mapping
    Added support to populate the Meraki device serial number in the Serial Number attribute, in addition to the existing Device Serial Number attribute.

  • Enhancement

    SNMP Discovery
    SNMP discovery now returns OS, OS Version and Software Version for Mitel Corporation devices.

  • Enhancement

    vCenter Discovery
    vCenter discovery now captures additional details like Memory (GB), Node Count, CPU Count and Hostname on Clusters, Hostname (datacenter name) on Datacenters, and the vCenter server’s main IP address on both.

  • Discovery
    Bug Fixes

    Handle Empty Host Name in Azure VM Import
    Fixed Host Name mapping to use Computer Name when available, falling back to VM Name only when Computer Name is empty.

  • Bug Fixes

    Last Seen Update for Multi-Host and Subnet Scans
    Fixed an issue where Last Seen was not updating for multi-host and subnet discovery scans.

  • Bug Fixes

    Intune Import
    Fixed an issue where Microsoft Intune imports did not retrieve all managed devices.

  • Bug Fixes

    Router Serial Number Discovery
    Fixed an issue where router scans completed successfully but did not populate the Serial Number field on the discovered Router CI.

  • Bug Fixes

    Component discovery
    Fixed the Component discovery on Windows hosts configured with German (Deutsch – Deutschland) language and locale.

  • Bug Fixes

    PowerScale (Isilon) Discovery
    Enabled PowerScale (Isilon) discovery so identified OneFS hosts are discovered as Isilon/PowerScale CIs.

  • CMDB
    Enhancement

    CI Overlays Renamed to ViVID Insights
    Renamed the CI Overlays title to ViVID Insights in BSM.

  • CMDB
    Bug Fixes

    Azure Virtual Machine Property Mapping
    Fixed an issue where several Azure Virtual Machine properties were missing after Move to CMDB. Key properties and relationships are now correctly mapped to the resulting CI when available from Azure discovery.

  • Bug Fixes

    Closed Changes and Incidents Missing from Business Service Map
    Fixed BSM to display closed and resolved virima ITSM changes and incidents based on the new tenant setting. Incident icon counts now include both Root Cause and Associated CIs, ensuring the icon count matches the list displayed when selecting a CI.

  • Bug Fixes

    Network View Relationship Coverage
    Updated Network View to include Abstract Of and Contains relationships by default.

  • Integration
    Bug Fixes

    Reverse Sync Overwriting Protected Identifier and System Fields
    Fixed reverse sync incorrectly overwriting Asset ID and other Virima-managed system fields (such as record creation, last scanned, and last connected timestamps) when mapped to another field. These fields now remain protected and unchanged after reverse sync, across all integrations.

  • Admin
    New Feature

    Dell Warranty API Credentials
    Added support to configure Dell TechDirect API credentials for retrieving warranty information for discovered Dell devices.

  • Admin
    Enhancement

    Software Usage Report Version Column
    Added a Version column to the Software Usage Report grid and Excel export. Users can now identify usage by software version directly in the report without manually cross-checking the Major Software configuration.

  • Admin
    Bug Fixes

    Software Usage Total Used Time
    Fixed an issue where the Software Usage summary report displayed only the latest session duration instead of the total usage time across all sessions in the selected reporting window.

  • Reports
    Bug Fixes

    Column Reorder Issue in Adhoc Report CSV Export
    Fixed an issue where the columns were shuffled in the CSV file when Adhoc reports were exported.

    Fixed an issue where PowerShell scans over WinRM HTTPS failed to authenticate on hardened Windows and JEA-configured endpoints.

  • Bug Fixes

    Discovery Agent
    Software Usage Metrics Duplicate Submission
    Fixed an issue where pending software usage metrics could be submitted multiple times after the Discovery Application became available and the agent restarted.
