Enhancements and Issues Resolved in This Release

This section describes enhancements introduced and issues resolved in this release of the Sentinel LDK Run-time Environment.

Enhancements in Version 8.51

Reference Description
SM-98674

Sentinel License Manager now supports client identity registration on a user's machine when the user click a provided link. The License Manager Service can parse and decode the URL to copy the identity string to the local INI file.

SM-128094 Sentinel Admin API can now be used to obtain a C2V file or fingerprint file from a user's machine.

Issues Resolved in Version 8.51

Reference Description
SM-122150 The License Manager would fail on machines with a CPU from before 2010.
SM-123325

The recipient list of detaches was incomplete when working with secure storage. (The list is complete when working with trusted storage.)

Note: This issue did not affect functionality - it only affected the user interface.

SM-123370 Certain errors would occur in the detection of Parallels VMs.
SM-124009
SM-130468

The PMType2 clone detection scheme did not work correctly under certain unusual circumstances.

SM-126115

The Admin License Manager would always checks the idle timeout, while the Runtimeless API never checks it. As a result, when installing or uninstall the RTE, conflicting behavior might occur for an HL Driverless key.

Now, if the logged-in Feature on the key is not enabled for network access, idle timeout is skipped.

SM-127056 The listing in Admin Control Center of products with detachable features did not paginate correctly.
SM-128810

For Sentinel Licensing API, when a call to hasp_login_scope() fails, the event is now logged with the related feature_id, as was already occuring with hasp_login(). Until now, the behavior for the two functions was inconsistent.

SM-130023 Errors in DNS resolution with client identity are now handled better.
SM-130889

The License Manager Service was not able to access a cloud license manager hosted by Google Cloud Platform with proxy settings.

SM-131117 In Admin Control Center, automatic detach was not taking friendly names for Feature and Product names.
