It's time to upgrade your DataMiner System to the latest version. Why? The newest releases (DataMiner 10.4.10, 10.4.0 [CU7], and 10.3.0 [CU19]) have moved away from .NET 6, which is nearing end of life.
Microsoft will officially end support for .NET 6 on November 12, 2024. This means that any new bugs or security vulnerabilities discovered after that date will no longer be addressed, leaving your system exposed to potential risks. By upgrading to the latest DataMiner versions, which have been migrated to .NET 8, you ensure that your system remains secure and continues to receive critical updates and fixes.
Before you begin the upgrade process, make sure you have the .NET 8 hosting bundle installed on your system. Once you have successfully upgraded your DataMiner System and all installed DxMs to the latest available versions, you can safely remove the .NET 6 runtime from your machines.
Don't wait until it's too late: upgrade your DataMiner System to stay ahead and ensure continued security.
