Opswise Automation Center Outboard 5.1.0 Maintenance
- Former user (Deleted)
Introduction
Opswise Automation Center Outboard 5.1.0 consists of a family of components that address distributed systems management and automation. The components are packaged together as product installation packages. Product installation packages are provided for a variety of operating systems and hardware.
Stonebranch provides product maintenance in the form of updated product installation packages that contained the latest maintenance levels of product components. This document lists the product installation package and component maintenance history for Opswise Automation Center Outboard 5.1.0.
Product Packaging
Opswise Automation Center Outboard components are bundled together into production installation packages, simply referred as packages in this document. Each package is identified with a package version number and each component within a package is identified with a component version number.
Each package and component maintenance level is identified with a version number. The component maintenance level is incremented whenever a new component is made available that contains defect fixes or feature enhancements. A package maintenance level is incremented when a product component within the package changes or the package installation changes.
Package maintenance levels are not necessarily made available for all platforms. Package maintenance may be released for a subset of supported platforms. For example, Opswise Automation Center Outboard for UNIX may be at maintenance level 5.1.0.1, but Opswise Automation Center Outboard for Windows may be at 5.1.0.0.
Stonebranch changes product version, release, or modification identifiers at its discretion when it deems an appropriate number of enhancements or capabilities have been introduced to warrant the change.
Versioning
Package version numbers are comprised of four numeric identifiers: version, release, modification level, and maintenance level.
For example, for Opswise Automation Center Outboard 5.1.0.1:
- 5 = Version 5
- 1 = Release 1
- 0 = Modification Level 0
- 1 = Maintenance Level 1
Although each product component within the package is uniquely identified with its own version, release, modification level, and maintenance level, component version numbers are identical to the package version numbers.
