While there are limited functional changes with this technical upgrade, below you will find a change to the Process Monitor page you will see after the deployment of this upgrade on Monday, May 22.

Process Monitor Page Changes

  • The Clear button clears the filters and sets them to their default values.
  • The Reset button resets filters to the last saved values.
  • The Actions dropdown field allows you to quickly navigate to the Message Log and View Log/Trace links.
