Defect
Root Cause: N/A

Environment

Resolution

Corrections included:
# Log file readability improvement
An additional log file (sldppcoll.csv) is now generated giving a summary result of the collection process.
This log file must be considered as an investigation start point when data is missing in the SP Portal Database.

# Collection retry possibility
It is now possible to re-launch a collection task for Agents which were unavailable (connection failed) at the moment the collection task was running.
This functionality is available through the menu:
Administration >Maintenance>Execution Log.
In the "Action" column, two new buttons can appear :
- one enabling the retrieval of the list of Agents that have not replied.
- one that allows the collection task for the list of Agents to be re-launched
