Summary

This article details the changes for the Laserfiche Deployment Toolkit 1.0.2 for Laserfiche 10.4.2+. See the following list of changes

• Sample configuration files now default to Directory Server 10.4.4 and Forms 10.4.4
• The Workflow configuration script now includes a section to automatically register a Forms web service. The registered Forms web service will use the "default authentication" option. (217971)
• You now have the option to include multiprocessor public portal allocation when installing a Laserfiche Server instance. In the installconfig JSON file, set the EnableMultiProcessorPublicAccess option to true or false as needed. (216825)
• You now have the option to specify an Azure SQL Database elastic pool for applications that require a SQL database. When an elastic pool is specified, the toolkit will create appropriate Azure SQL databases within the specified elastic pool. (248399)
• The Test-Thumbprint validation helper function now specifically only looks for certificates in the local machine certificate store. Previously, a potential PowerShell Remoting issue could cause the Get-ChildItem cmdlet to encounter an error while loading other certificate stores.
• Deployment Toolkit validation code now uses the Resolve-DnsName cmdlet instead of a custom helper function that relied on the Get-NetIPConfiguration cmdlet.
• There is now a more verbose error message when the Deployment Toolkit cannot run PowerShell scripts due to either an incorrect username and password or insufficient rights to run PowerShell scripts. (225270)
• The Deployment Toolkit now includes a minimum version check for Powershell 5.1. (234172)
