There are a couple of pretty nifty things about this Fixpack which should come in handy.
Here are some of the items which I know I'm going to be using...
- CLI for Historical Data Collection Configuration : Today, just getting a list of what historical data I'm keeping is painful. Even if I only use this for reporting and not for managing, it will be very useful.
- Provide CLI for Maintenance Mode : No more situation floods during upgrades or backup downtime.
- Improved DLA file export : There is a new utility to create an XML file for feeding to TADDM - hopefully this will have all the bugs ironed out :)
- Regular expressions in situation rules - Need I say more?
Not all of these are found in the README, go through the documentation too...

Read the "new in this version" that's at the top of every book.
I'll update the Blog with my experiences with this FixPack.
Enjoy :)
