Query Analyzer, Replication monitoring, and all rules and graphs are now available to all licensed users. See http://www.mysql.com/products/ for details.

There is no longer a requirement to enter a license key.

The “What's New?” page integrates with My Oracle Support service, in addition to the MySQL Enterprise web site.

There is a new advisor and corresponding graph for MySQL Cluster.

There is a new advisor and corresponding graph for InnoDB Plugin.

There is a new advisor and corresponding graph for network and disk I/O.

The new Aggregator component accepts Query Analyzer data from any source.

The CA certificate files cacerts and myKeystore are now backed up during the upgrade process, and their file locations are stored within configuration_report.txt. (Bug #55505, Bug #11762859)

If identical JSON-format data was submitted to the Aggregator within the same 60-second window, the counts displayed on the Dashboard could be incorrect. (Bug #54669)

If the output from the SHOW ENGINE INNODB STATUS command is truncated because it exceeds the size limit, and MySQL Enterprise Monitor cannot get information about all InnoDB transactions, now a message is printed to the agent log. To avoid the possibility of the status information being truncated, enable the innodb-status-file option. MySQL Enterprise Monitor gets the status information from this file if it is available. The status file is not subject to a maximum size like the SHOW ENGINE INNODB STATUS output. (Bug #45509)

The User Search Pattern when defined in MEM/LDAP Bind as User method of authentication overrode the User Search Attribute Pattern method, even though it shows as greyed out. (Bug #56734)

When MySQL Enterprise Monitor truncated the legacy data collection tables, such as dc_ng_string_now and dc_ng_long_now, the disk space was not released back to the operating system, even if the innodb_file_per_table setting was enabled. Now, the disk space is released correctly, for all combinations of MySQL with or without the InnoDB Plugin. (Bug #57126)

If the config.properties file, which can contain sensitive information, is world-readable, the server issues a warning message and does not start. (Bug #53004)

With the setting log-level=debug, the JSON data in the Aggregator log is now formatted. (Bug #49469)

The embedded OpenSSL has been updated to version 0.9.8o. (Bug #55949)

The deprecated --skip-locking option for the embedded MySQL server was being used in place of the --skip-external-locking option. (Bug #56004)

The file permissions on the mysql directory within the MySQL Enterprise Service Manager installation would not be set correctly on Mac OS X. (Bug #35203)

The MySQL Enterprise Agent installer would ask for agent credentials, even if you had indicated that the correct user credentials had already been created. (Bug #53943)

The data reported for the binary log file size (in mysql::masterlogs::filesizesum) was erroneously reporting the count of the files, not the sum of the size of the binary logs. (Bug #54618)

The list of active support issues on the What's New page has been updated to not show issues that are stale, and to not show issues if you have disabled the support issue checks. (Bug #54600)

Monitoring a database with a large number of tables would lead to long queries on INFORMATION_SCHEMA which could lead to operating system memory graphs not being updated correctly. (Bug #54591)

The installer dialog for the text installation for MySQL Enterprise Agent would show a blank password prompt when asking for confirmation of the root password. (Bug #52129)

The timeout for information being supplied through the aggregator was too high, leading to a failure to identify that the aggregator was unavailable. (Bug #52280)

Added regex parsing for the new InnoDB plugin, as features relying on SHOW INNODB STATUS would output extra sections.
