This release of Advanced Analytics for AppManager provides the following enhancements:
Transport Layer Security (TLS) 1.2: This release of Advanced Analytics for AppManager provides an enhancement by providing support for TLS 1.2.
This release of Advanced Analytics for AppManager resolves the following issue:
Advanced Analytics jobs stop with an error status: This hotfix resolves an issue where there is no event being generated when jobs stop with an error status. With this hotfix, "AdvancedAnalytics_StatusEvents" and "AdvancedAnalytics_EventListener" Knowledge Scripts include a new parameter "QDB name,” (for policy jobs only, not applicable for ad-hoc jobs). User needs to create a custom property for each agent (acting as an Advanced Analytics agent), which contains the corresponding QDB name, Create the KSG and override the parameter and apply KSG as a Monitoring Policy on a Management Group that contains the NetIQ Advanced Analytics agents. (ENG341223)
To get the updates provided in this release, you must install the module to the AppManager repository (QDB) and on the agent computer, and then propagate changes to any running jobs for the Knowledge Scripts that were updated in this release. AppManager 7.x does not automatically update renamed or copied Knowledge Scripts. For more information, see the “Upgrading Knowledge Script Jobs” section in the management guide.
For the most recently updated list of supported application versions, see the AppManager Supported Products page. Unless noted otherwise, this module supports all updates, hotfixes, and service packs for the releases listed below.
Advanced Analytics for AppManager has the following system requirements:
One AppManager agent per monitored QDB, or one agent that all of the monitored QDBs share.
Enable the agent to generate reports. Do not install Advanced Analytics for AppManager on more than one agent computer per monitored QDB. For more information, see the Advanced Analytics for AppManager Management Guide, available on the AppManager Modules Documentation page.
The agent must run under the same Windows account as the NetIQ Advanced Analytics Configuration Service. For more information about the service account, see the Advanced Analytics User Guide, available on the AppManager Documentation page.
AppManager Windows agent hotfix 71704 or later. For more information, see the AppManager Suite Hotfixes page.

AppManager for Microsoft Windows module, version 7.6.170.0 or later, installed on the agent computers
Microsoft Message Queue (MSMQ) Server on the agent computers
The MSMQ Server is an operating system feature. If necessary, use the tools that Microsoft Windows provides to install the feature.To prevent the queue from filling to capacity, NetIQ Corporation recommends allowing 1 GB (which is the default) of storage across all of the applications that are using MSMQ on the computer.
Microsoft SQL Server Native Client 11.0 (minimum version 11.3.6538.0 or later)
To support TLS 1.2, you need Microsoft SQL Server Native Client. The SQL Server Native client can be installed from this Microsoft download link.

Advanced Analytics for AppManager includes a managed object, AMAA.dll, and Knowledge Scripts to discover and monitor Advanced Analytics resources. The download package includes these Release Notes, a management guide, Help for Knowledge Scripts, and several files that are used during installation:
AM70-AdvancedAnalytics-7.2.251.0.msi, the module installer.
AM70-AdvancedAnalytics-7.2.251.0.ini, a configuration file used with the AppManager setup program.
AM70-AdvancedAnalytics-7.2.251.0.xml, a configuration file used for deploying the module with Control Center. This is the file you check into the Control Center Web Depot.
ckPhxEventsListener.exe, the pre-installation check used with the AppManager setup program.
DefaultRule_AdvancedAnalytics.xml, a configuration file used for deploying the module with Control Center.
When you download the module, these files are copied by default to the local folder on the download computer. Consider copying these files to the \windows_installation\setup\Setup Files folder on the same distribution computer on which you saved your main AppManager software and documentation. By doing so, you maintain all AppManager software in one location that is easily accessible when you want to add more repositories, management servers, or agents.
Run the module installer to install the module components in the following locations:
On the agent computers to install the agent components
On all console computers to install the Help and console extensions
Run the module installer only once on each of these computers.
You must also install the Knowledge Scripts. You can install these components into local or remote QDBs. When installing to the primary QDB, select the option to install Knowledge Scripts, and then specify the SQL Server name of the server hosting the QDB, as well as the case-sensitive QDB name.Important If you use Control Center 7.x, run the module installer for each QDB attached to Control Center. If you use Control Center 8.x, run the module installer only for the primary QDB, and Control Center will automatically replicate this module to secondary QDBs.Install Knowledge Scripts only once per QDB. The module installer now installs Knowledge Scripts for each module directly into the QDB instead of to the \AppManager\qdb\kp folder as in previous releases.For more information about installing this module, see the Advanced Analytics for AppManager Management Guide, available on the AppManager Modules Documentation page.
