Server 25.27 enhances Sophos compatibility and provides greater control over internal database configurations for improved performance and fine-tuning.
Updated Network Monitoring Warning for Sophos
This update resolves a previous issue where a warning was shown for disabled network monitoring due to interference with Sophos product even after the computer was updated with a newer Agent.
Now, the Sophos warning will disappear automatically as soon as no incompatible Agent is detected, providing a clearer view of your network monitoring status.
Ability to Control Upload Timeout (On-Premise)
Previously, a single large file could prevent the upload of other, smaller files if it terminated with an HTTP timeout.
To address this rare situation, you can now control the server upload timeout with the new client_file_upload_timeout key in the kv_store table. This ensures a more efficient data transfer.
To use it:
INSERT INTO kv_store(key, value) VALUES ('client_file_upload_timeout', 42);The value type is uint32 (in seconds). The default value is 30.
Ability to Control Threading Configurations (On-Premise)
The threading configuration, which determines how many threads different services can use, was previously controlled by a configuration file on the server, making it difficult to apply new configurations due to permission requirements.
You can now easily change the threading configuration values from the DB using the threading.configuration key in the kv_store table. This provides greater flexibility and ease of management for your server's performance.
To use it:
insert into kv_store(key, value) values('threading.configuration', '{"network" : 4, "logic" : 10, "logic_delayed" : 10, "heartbeat" : 10, "audio" : 10, "screen" : 6, "siem" : 2, "packet_stat" : 4}'::jsonb);The value type is JSON. The default value is an empty string. The range for each thread setting is 0-10.
Notes:
The database configurations will override the values in the configuration file.
It's possible to use values from both the database and the configuration file. In such cases, database values will override any duplicate values in the configuration file.
