Thank you for choosing Tanium. The following Release Notes document changes between releases of the TanOS software for the Tanium Appliance.
The previous version can be found here: Release_Notes_TanOS_(Version_1.3.0)
TanOS 1.3.1
Limited Availability Release Date: July 3, 2018
General Availability Release Date: July 3, 2018
End of Life Date: June 30, 2024
Major Features and Improvements
- This update resolves an issue where upgrades to v1.3.0 would fail, or an upgraded system would fail to boot, due to multiple package versions being installed for the same package
- Since this release replaces the TanOS 1.3.0 release, see the TanOS Version 1.3.0 Release Notes for further details on the major features of this release.
Known Issues and Workarounds
- This build resolves an issue where password expiration may not have been enforced on previous releases. Due to this, the first TanOS login post-upgrade may require password reset.
- Upgrading platform from 7.1 to 7.2 builds on TanOS 1.3.0 may require creating required TLS certs after upgrade via menu, followed by starting the Tanium Server service.
Upgrade Recommendations
- Customers can upgrade from either TanOS v1.2.0, v1.2.1 or v1.3.0 to this release. This update effectively replaces TanOS v1.3.0. There is no need, and it is not supported, to upgrade to TanOS v1.3.0 as part of the v1.2.x to v1.3.x upgrade path. Please see http://docs.tanium.com for details on supported upgrade paths.
- This upgrade WILL remove existing users from the iDrac interface! Please enable the tanremote user and change its password following upgrade to recover Virtual Console access.
- Perform a partition sync prior to launching the TanOS Upgrade menu, so that you can confirm the partition sync succeeds before upgrading TanOS.
- This upgrade is much larger than previous upgrades, please give ample time to sync partitions and perform the upgrade.
