Release 25.1.0 is the second release in the Horizon 25 series.

It contains a bunch of bug fixes and enhancements, including packaging fixes, BSM updates, alarmd improvements, and much more.

The codename for 25.1.0 is Momo.

  Note: This release contains a couple of breaking changes:

  1. Dates in event XML (in the ReST API and published to the event port) now must be formatted in standard ISO-8601 format (eg, 2019-11-05T14:36:00-04:00).
  2. Scriptd has been changed to execute scripts in a single read-only transaction by default. If you need the ability to write changes to the database or need to do your own transaction management for any other reason, you will need to add transactional="false" to the <scriptd-configuration …​> tag in the scriptd-configuration.xml file.
