Version 8.3.2
New Features
- Configure data-retention for analysis results
CONFIGURE DATA-RETENTION FOR ANALYSIS RESULTS
The appliance configuration now allows marking analysis results for deletion after a configurable amount of time. This means that detailed analysis results, such as the sandbox report (or any metadata files, such as screenshots of network traffic captures) will not be available for download, allowing to limit the space used by these results on large installations.
This new feature was tracked internally as FEAT-2331

Distribution Upgrade
Version 8.3.2 will be the final version that supports Ubuntu Trusty as our operating system distribution. In all future releases, Ubuntu Xenial will be required. To support this distribution upgrade, version 8.3.2 will support both Ubuntu Trusty and Ubuntu Xenial. Before upgrading to any versions post-8.3.2, appliances on Ubuntu Trusty must be upgraded to Ubuntu Xenial while running version 8.3.2. Be prepared for this upgrade to take at least an hour. Additionally, this upgrade will require a reboot.
You can check the distribution in use by an appliance in the Appliance Status view of the portal. The "Base Distribution" listed should be "xenial". If it is "trusty", the appliance distribution should be upgraded.
For help on the upgrade process, please refer to the following instructions. This update is not done automatically to prevent unexpected downtime.
