New or changed features for administration.
Use SAP Control Center to administer Agentry applications. Define the Agentry application definition and deploy the application files that are developed in Agentry Editor. Modify the configuration properties for the Agentry Server instance. Start and stop the Agentry Server instance. Once the application is enabled and the Agentry Server instance is running, the application is available to end users.
View and disconnect active users for an Agentry application, and enable logging to capture information for debugging, issue tracking, and benchmarking. Deploy updated application files to the Agentry application. Package specific Agentry application metadata for deploying in another server environment. Export Agentry application files for transporting between server environments. Incrementally deploy localization files or other resources, inspect deployed files, and download files.
Additionally, SAP Mobile Platform supports automatic cluster-wide replication of Agentry applications, and multiple Agentry application instances in a single SAP Mobile Platform cluster.
New SAP Mobile Server APIs are available for working with Agentry applications.
Use SAP Control Center to manage applications by SDK type. When creating application definitions in SAP Control Center, you select the SDK type of the application. Only fields that are applicable to that application type appear. All applications are shown in the Applications node of the navigation pane. Select an application to manage or modify it in the administration pane.

Use SAP Control Center to manage the EIS partition cache. You can deploy an MBO package that is contained in an EIS partition cache group. The EIS cache group is listed along with the other cache groups for the package. You can change the Web connection endpoint used for the cache. The endpoint sends client updates for MBOs in the cache group to the EIS for batch processing. When you purge a cache, you can set the purge parameters for unused and unreferenced EIS partitions.

SAP Mobile Platform now includes a command line utility (consolidate-logs.bat) to consolidate, correlate, and filter the content of the server logs. The utility is limited to the SAP Mobile Server and cluster logs. The utility is typically used by the SAP Mobile Platform support team, but can be used by administrators to collect data for analysis or reporting to the support team.
