Two new configuration options were added:

• The first one gives the users the chance to automate an existing feature, which improves performance.
• The other one is about displaying the Advanced Staging configuration screen to the users, improving usability.

This is the Staging related implementation of a bigger change. On the Staging side, the LXC Client extensions (Remote apps) could be handled. To make this feature completely working, LPS-182183: Export/Import of FrontEnd Client Extensions is also needed.

• Deletion of property upgrade.log.context.name. Now all upgrade related log lines are automatically tagged with the key upgrade.component, which provides more meaningful information.
• Upgrade Report is now compatible also with upgrade on startup, and it can be printed as Log Thread Context information.
• Upgrades log the result and the type of upgrade that has taken place after all the upgrade processes finish.
• New mBean available with upgrade on startup to obtain real time information about the status and the result of the upgrade.

Creation of a new property called upgrade.report.dl.storage.size.timeout that specifies the number of seconds that the upgrade report generation will wait for calculating the DL size before timing out. This property is set to 10 by default but it can be modified in the portal-ext.properties file.
