New Contributors

Highlights

Migration details page: Added new page which shows in depth state monitoring for migration lifecycle.

Vjailbreak Proxy:

• End-to-end UI for registering a Proxy VM (SSH key upload, validation status), selecting Hot-Add as the copy method in the migration form, and monitoring hot-add-specific migration phases
• Verification now auto-installs missing dependencies on the Proxy VM during validation, eliminating the need for manual pre-configuration before registering

Advanced Configuration Management

• Configure NTP servers and system timezone for vJailbreak VMs directly from the UI.
• Introduced server group selection for agent scale-up, enabling better placement and affinity control.

Enhanced Retry Experience

• Introduced a new Edit & Retry capability, allowing users to modify migration settings and retry failed migrations without recreating the migration.
• Simplified recovery with a unified Retry action and support for Bulk Retry, reducing manual effort.

Known Limitations

Proxy VM OVA requires ESXi 8.0 U2 or higher: The bundled OVA template uses virtual hardware version vmx-21, which is incompatible with older ESXi hosts. Attempting to deploy it on ESXi 7.x will fail with an “unsupported hardware family” error. For ESXi 7.x environments, the Proxy VM must be created and configured manually instead of using the OVA deploy option.
