The following issues were detected prior to the beta release of Ignition 8.3. This is not an exhaustive list of known issues. Throughout the beta period we will keep this page updated as issues are addressed and as new issues are reported.
The primary support channel for any beta questions or feedback is the 8.3 Early Access forum.
EAM & Redundancy
Disabling Gateway Network on Master also disables it on Backup
Disabling the Gateway Network on a Redundant Master also disables it on the Backup. This behavior is different than in 8.1. This will be corrected in a future release.
Back up controller unable to see EAM agents
When users have a controller set up within a redundant pair, the backup controller is unable to see EAM agents before and after they have been approved on the master controller.
Users are able to create/select invalid controllers when setting up an agent
When setting up an EAM environment, users are able to create/select invalid controllers within the agent setup wizard.
No log messages appear when an EAM Edge Agent paired with a standard Gateway does not receive resources
If a user sends resources to a target project that doesn't exist on the Edge Gateway, it can't make a project to catch those resources like a standard Gateway can. While this is the intended behavior, there is no logging to indicate that anything happened.
Edge Edition
'Read Only' checkbox has no affect on security settings
The 'Read Only' checkbox on the Edge Settings screen does nothing, since all other security settings have been moved to the Tag Provider settings. This checkbox will be removed in a future release.
Event Streams
Startup and Shutdown event streams not handled on separate threads
Startup and shutdown are currently handled on the notification thread from resource system. These will be moved to a separate thread in order to ensure the lifecycle of one event stream does't affect the lifecycle of another.
Reporting
Master Pages
This feature was initially targeted for 8.3.0, but was trimmed from scope. This will be added in a future release.
SECS/GEM
SECS/GEM Gateway pages are not present
SECS/GEM pages are not currently visible on the Gateway. These will be added in a future release.
Tags & UDTs
Some custom tag properties overwritten upon upgrade
If a user has created a Tag Custom Property name of valuePersistence or defaultValue, there will be issues with those properties, as there are now standard Tag properties with those names. In 8.3.0, these properties will be treated as standard properties, and the values that were assigned to those properties in 8.1.* will be overwritten with the default value of those properties in 8.3.0.
Remote Tag Provider becomes unresponsive after attempting to unshelve non-existent alarm
The Remote Tag Provider can become unresponsive if a user attempts to unshelve an alarm after the tag for that alarm is deleted.
Web UI
Update response toasts are not properly displaying 422 messages
If users see a JSON object inside of an error dialog, it's likely due to this known issue.
OPC Quick Client
The OPC Quick Client is not included in the 8.3 beta release, but will be added in a future release.
Alarm Notifications VOIP - Manage Scripts page missing
The Manage Scripts functionality on Voice Notification Profiles is temporarily unavailable, and will be added back at a later release.
Mobile-Responsive Gateway UX
Changes to the Gateway UX to improve mobile responsiveness are planned for an upcoming release.
