MobiControl 15.4.1 Release Notes


Version 15.4.1 Build 4828 on September 27, 2021

Please note: We strongly recommend following standard IT change control practices and testing product upgrades in pre-production environments.

Contact SOTI's Professional Services and Support team or visit the product documentation for information on proceeding with your upgrade.

Upgrade Considerations

  • SOTI MobiControl now requires a minimum of Java 11. You can choose either Oracle Java 11 or OpenJDK 11. Refer to Online Help for the OpenJDK 11 setup procedure.
  • Upon upgrade, SOTI MobiControl installer automatically rebuilds the search data. As a result, any saved System Health Advanced Analytics charts data will be lost.
  • If you are using a version of Cloud Link Agent (CLA) that is 3.x or lower, it must be uninstalled before installing and setting up CLA 4.0. If CLA 4.0 is not set up with SOTI MobiControl 15.4.x, any operation or functionality related to LDAP and AD CS will not work. For more information on CLA 4.0 setup, please refer to CLA 4.0 help.

General Improvements

SOTI XTreme Hub

  • You can disable the file transfer capability on a select SOTI XTreme Hub and block devices from using that SOTI XTreme Hub. You can also target specific Android and Windows CE/WM devices and block them from using a SOTI XTreme Hub to download files.
  • MobiControl search can be used to identify SOTI XTreme Hub devices that are active via the new “XTreme Hub Enabled” device property.

Apple

  • Feedback is provided in the SOTI MobiControl device activity logs when SOTI MobiControl fails to assign a user-based App Store license to a device user when the App Store is disabled.
  • You can now differentiate between WPA and WPA2 encryption methods in Apple Wi-Fi configuration profiles.
