December 22, 2021

Upgrade Considerations

  • SOTI MobiControl now requires a minimum of Java 11. You can choose either Oracle Java 11 or OpenJDK 11. Refer to our online help for the OpenJDK 11 set up procedure.

  • Upon upgrade, the SOTI MobiControl installer automatically rebuilds the search data. As a result, any saved System Health Advanced Analytics charts data will be lost.
  • If you are using a version of Cloud Link Agent (CLA) that is 3.x or lower, it must be uninstalled before installing and setting up CLA 4.0. If CLA 4.0 is not set up with SOTI MobiControl 15.4.x, any operation or functionality related to LDAP and AD CS will not work. For more information on CLA 4.0 setup, please refer to CLA 4.0 help.

Windows 11 and Windows 10 21H1

SOTI MobiControl now officially supports the management of devices running the Windows 11 21h1 and Windows 10 21H1 operating systems.

macOS 12 Support

SOTI MobiControl now officially supports the management of devices running the macOS 12 operating system, having M1 as well as Intel processors.

Android Enterprise App Policy

When creating a new Enterprise App Policy, the deployment type will now default to ‘mandatory’ instead of ‘suggested’ to be more in line with the Managed Google Play Behavior.

Custom Attributes

Custom Attributes that are in use by devices, device groups, or profiles can no longer be edited (name or data type) or deleted to ensure no unexpected behavior occurs.
