Logi Composer Version 26 Summary of Changes

This is a summary of the major changes made in version 25 of Composer. It is provided so you can quickly identify new and changed Composer features before upgrading from Composer 25 to Composer 26.

This software is offered on a quarterly release schedule. The current major release is v26.2.

Upgrade Considerations

Be sure to back up your metadata store (see Back Up the Metadata Store) before you upgrade.

Upgrading to Logi Composer v23.2 or later includes an upgrade of Java runtime from 11 to 17, installed and configured automatically during upgrade.

Important: Before you upgrade to Composer v25.2 or later you must use a newer version of CentOS than CentOS 7 or CentOS 8. If you are not using this tool, you can exclude the sdk-service when installing or upgrading Composer.

Note: CentOS 7 & 8 are end of life (EOL) support. CentOS Stream 9 is supported for new instances of Logi Composer 25.4 and higher. Upgrade your operating system to CentOS Stream 9 before upgrading your Composer instance. For more information, see Operating System Support.

Note: New installations of Logi Composer (v24.3 and later) use PostgreSQL 16. If you are upgrading your environment to v24.3 or later, you can retain your existing PostgreSQL version.

To ensure services start properly after upgrade in a Linux environment:

  1. Verify all of your JVM setting overrides are defined in the /etc/zoomdata directory (not /opt/zoomdata/conf).

  2. The .jvm files in /etc/zoomdata/ only contain parameters that are different from default ones, typically Xms/Xms settings, javaagent settings.

    If you have copied the entire .jvm file from /opt/zoomdata/conf for placement into /etc/zoomdata, that configuration is not overwritten after upgrade. Properties such as XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC can prevent services from starting on Java 17 runtime.

For more information on configuration setups and overrides, see Configure Memory Settings and Connector Properties and Property Files.

Note: If you are upgrading from an earlier version of Logi Composer, this may be a breaking change: the introduction of the system attribute User.timeZone may cause a conflict if you used this as a custom attribute. See Upgrade Workflow.
