Hi,

We identified an issue in AsyncOS 6.7.6-068 for Management that under certain circumstances can cause loss of historical reporting data when reporting groups are configured. To ensure a high quality release, further testing on our side is required.

6.7.6-068 is no longer available for upgrade to your M-Series appliances.

If you already upgraded to 6.7.6-068 we strongly recommend to disable group based reporting to avoid being affected.

We expect to release a new improved build of 6.7.6 shortly and apologize for any inconvenience or confusion this might have caused.

If you are required to upgrade to 6.7.6 before a new build is available, please contact Cisco IronPort Customer Support.

I'll let you know once the new build is available...

Best Regards,

Jakob
