New Features:
************
This service pack includes the following new and updated features.

- PLA (Portfolio Licensing Agreement) Telemetry - We are making it easier for
customers
to report information manually through a new UX and changes to product usage
reporting
instructions. We are providing a tool, the Product Usage Collector, for
automatic on-demand
gathering of metrics within the customers environment without special
requirements such as
firewall rules or software installed on the system in their data center. The
Product usage metrics
are now easily accessible from the product UI and contains an overview of all
metrics which are
being sent to Broadcom as part of customer PLA agreement, together with the
licensed metric
calculation details.

- Updated Version Support for CA APM Database - CA APM now supports APM
database up to
PostgreSQL 14.x and Oracle 19c. For more information, see the Upgrade
Components section
in the documentation. PostgreSQL installation is not part of the CA APM 10.8
installation
and must be installed before you start the CA APM 10.8 installation.

-  An example of the manual upgrade procedure to upgrade Postgres from 9.6.2 to 13.4  (https://knowledge.broadcom.com/external/article/228491 )

- Introscope Workstation for Windows - Introscope Workstation on the Windows
platform has both
32bit & 64bit JRE bundles.

- Introscope Workstation Packaged as a Mac OS X Application - Introscope
Workstation is now available
packaged as Mac OS X application. Please contact Broadcom support for
details. It requires Java 11
to be already installed on the system. You can check that it is available by
running the following
command: /usr/libexec/java_home -v 11

- SOAP API updates - There is a new implementation of SOAP API for listing and
retrieving metrics.
It is a subset of the existing SOAP API. It is based on Spring WS instead of
on Apache Axis:
1) The new API uses document/literal style instead of rpc/encoded style.
2) Its endpoint is at http://HOST:PORT/introscope-web-services2/services/.

Its WSDL is retrievable from
http://HOST:PORT/introscope-web-services2/wsdl11.wsdl.
3) Detailed migration documentation
