Maybe you're comfortable with your WebLogic Server installation and deployments. Maybe you've got a crack team of administrators keeping your software stack healthy. But maybe something changes.

Did someone apply a patch to a server or JVM without following your change control process? Did you forget to integrate a configuration change from your dev box to your system test environment?

Guardian 1.1 (GA on March 31, 2008) introduces the "Compare" feature, which allows you to diff an inventory, evaluation or snapshot against an earlier instance, or even across two different domains.

Guardian 1.1 is our first major new feature release, so we are very excited to bring customers this new functionality which has been one of our biggest customer enhancement requests.

Another popular customer enhancement request has been around the concept of ignoring certain signatures. Sometimes your own best practices are at odds with BEA recommended best practices. Now, with the Guardian 1.1 release, you can simply right-click on that signature and set an IGNORE annotation.

We went a little further, though, with the concept of signature annotations in 1.1. "Ignore" is really just a special case of the more general annotation feature, which actually lets you flag signatures with any kind of extra information or notes that might be meaningful for you and your team associated with that signature. Try it out, and share in the comments how you're using annotations in Guardian 1.1.
