Tue, 31 Aug 2010 17:07:00 GMT | Add Comment
Valued vCloud Express customers,
We are happy to announce that we are preparing for our September 2010 feature release for vCloud Express, tentatively scheduled for production availability on Wednesday September 1st. This release contains some new enhancements that will become active immediately upon production availability. The following is a summary of the changes contained in the vCloud Express September 2010 release:
New Feature:
Enhance User Security
During the Registration process, all users will be required to answer
more security questions, which will consist of both canned questions
created by Terremark and custom security questions created by each
user.
New Feature:
Prevent Registration using Domains Known to Be Security Risks
Users will not be allowed to
complete the registration process using an email
address with a domain that is known to be a security risk.
New Feature: Capture Source IP During Forgot
Login Credentials Process
During
the Forgot Login Credentials process if the user enters the wrong
answer for any of the security questions the system will
capture
the user's IP Address which will be displayed on the User Audit Log.
New Feature
: Email/Console
Notifications for Credit Card Expiration
With
this new feature, all billable customers will receive multiple
notifications by email and in the console, when the credit card used
for vCloud Express billing is
about to expire or has expired.
New Feature:
Threshold Credit Card
Processing
Billing
for vCloud Express will now take place when accounts reach a certain
amount in
usage or at the end of the month, whichever comes first. Users will be
able to see a running total of usage for the month as well as any
charges in the Payments/Adjustments section on the My Bill tab.
Enhancement: Show More Details for Credit
Card Processing Failures
The
system will display user friendly error messages in the event of a
failed credit card transaction for all email and on-screen notification.
Enhancement: Forgot Login Credentials Limit
During the Forgot Login Credentials process, all users will have
limited
attempts to enter the right answers for the randomly selected
security questions. Once the user has successfully answered the
Security questions, an email notification will be sent to the user
with instructions/Token on how to complete the “Reset Password”
process.
Note:
If the right answer(s) to the security questions is not provided within
a certain number of attempts, the user will be notified by
on-screen/email
notification that the account has been “Disabled.” In order to
“Activate” the account the user will have to contact the Terremark
Support Team.
Bug Fix: Append Customer
Account to Virtual Machine (VM) when adding Disk(s)
For support purposes the customer’s account number will be appended to
all additional disk(s) added to a VM. The account number will be listed
before the VM name (example: 35478_TestServer).

2010 release please don’t hesitate to post your questions or feedback on the
