Customers who choose to update thier DALiM systems to the just released August patch set need to be aware that DALiM has removed a number of tools classified as "Obsolete" from the TWiST software.

Obsolete tools can be identified by the upper left corner having a red triangle shaped mark on them, and most have a generic "top" icon.

If you have any workflows which contains one or more of these tools you should remove the obsoleted tool(s) and replace them with the designated replacement tool before patching your system, once you update your system to the August patches you will no longer be able to publish any workflow containing one of these tools.

You will still be able to open and modify workflows containing these tools, but if you attempt to publsh them you will recieve an "unknown basic tool" error and the workflow will be unpublished from all your TWiST servers.

If you are unsure as to which tool to use as a replacement for one of these obsoleted tools please open a ticket with our support site and we will assist you in locating the correct one.
