New Features
In addition to the features and fixes previously released in version 16.0 (as described in KB 7021414), this update includes the following new features.
- It is now possible to customize the log file name with variables specifying host name, session name, and the date. The new log file name parameters are:
%H - hostname
%S - session name
%Y - four-digit year
%M - two-digit month
%D - two-digit day of the month
For example, with a session named “Tandem.rd6x” and a host called “6530System”,
LogFile_%S_%H_%M-%D-%Y.log
Will produce:
Logfile_Tandem.rd6x_6530System_01-29-2016.log
- The ability to run a macro from a Ribbon button, the Quick Access Toolbar (QAT), or to be prompted to run a macro when a specific action occurs in Reflection 6530 sessions has been added.
- The Reflection FTP Client now provides the ability to detect a Tandem Guardian personality host system and will append the string “101” to the destination filename when performing multiple text file transfer uploads.
