Release 7.1.0.0.0

Enhancements

The following are new and enhanced features for Oracle Utilities Live Energy Connect.

Server Enhancements

Implemented Oracle Utilities Live Energy Connect software as a 64-bit Windows application. Previous versions of the software (called the RTI Platform) were 32-bit Windows applications.
Upgraded the Oracle Utilities Live Energy Connect server's embedded Python interpreter to Python 3.8.3.
Upgraded open source software used to implement Secure ICCP. OpenSSL was upgraded from version 1.0.1g to version 1.1.1g (OpenSSL's current LTS release). Stunnel was upgraded from version 5.53 to 5.56.
Oracle Utilities Live Energy Connect now registers two Stunnel Windows services at install instead of launching Stunnel processes from Live Energy Connect. These Stunnel services are to be managed by the user through the Window Services Manager.
This release does not have a Secure ICCP Certificate Manager. Instead, follow the procedure for deploying certificates described in the Oracle Utilities Live Energy Connect Secure ICCP Certificate Deployment Procedure document.
Updated the Python scripts used by Oracle Utilities Live Energy Connect Configuration Manager to work with Python 3.8.3.
By default, the Oracle Utilities Live Energy Connect server now listens on LOCALHOST (i.e., 127.0.0.1) for incoming MMS/ICCP associations. In previous releases (called LiveData Utilities RTI Server), the server listened on all interfaces (i.e., 0.0.0.0). With the current release, if you require inbound MMS/ICCP associations from remote peers (i.e., VCC's on other machines), you will need to modify your Oracle Utilities Live Energy Connect configuration to allow the server to listen on the appropriate external interface. To do this, select the appropriate configuration alias in the Oracle Utilities Live Energy Connect Configuration Manager and open the Server tab of the Properties panel. In the Extra params field, add "/listen=<ip_address>" (e.g. "/listen=192.168.1.10").
The MMS OCX interface that some customer applications use to access objects on the server is implemented in this release with 64-bit ActiveX (OCX) controls. Previous releases (called LiveData Utilities RTI Server) implemented the MMS OCX interface with 32-bit ActiveX (OCX) controls.
Made logging more configurable by organizing the Oracle Utilities Live Energy Connect server functions into "logging modules" whose level of logging can be individually specified in the srvxnt.ini file
This release does not have a License Manager application. Follow the terms of our Software License Agreement.
Created the option to log all ICCP traffic (across multiple VCCs) in srvxnt.ini file.
Changed behavior of the DNP Master functionality to close and reinitiate connections if there is a failure receiving a response from an outstation.
Fixed a regression found in the previous release that left the server unable to load custom macros that used the SharedScript Python module.
Created a new dataflow filter that can be used to bridge 2-way connectors to 1-way output connectors (useful in control applications).
Discontinued Adapters and Integrations
The following adapters and integrations are not supported in Oracle Utilities Live Energy Connect Version 7.1.0.0.0. Discontinued adapters may be replaced with updated adapters in future releases.
- SPP Marketplace Adapter for Day Ahead Markets
- MISO Market Adapter for Day Ahead Markets
- MISO Market Interface Support
- Block 4 ISEO Simulator
- Legacy COM-based OPC DA
- 32-bit ActiveX (OCX) controls for the MMS OCX interface
Note:
Any application that makes use of the MMS OCX interface with 32-bit ActiveX controls in previous releases will need to be modified to work with the 64-bit MMS OCX interface in the latest release. If you want to upgrade to the latest release of Oracle Utilities Live Energy Connect and your organization uses such an application, contact My Oracle Support.
Updated tool tips in the Configuration Manager for certain filter nodes based on customer feedback.
- Added a "Restarting" state to the reporting of Live Energy Connect server states when reloading batch files in configs that use the Asset ID Manager.
