Release Notes
On Demand Migration Desktop Update Agent (DUA)
Release Notes
November 2025
To complete a migration project and reconfigure a user's applications, agents must be configured and deployed by administrators, then run on users' workstations.
Desktop Update Agent provides the ability to manage users' application reconfiguration activities from a single view within On Demand Migration. Migration administrators can configure which applications will be reconfigured, track each application’s status, and send notices to remind users if required.
These release notes provide information about the On Demand Migration Desktop Update Agent.

New features
New features in :
-
The agent now runs silently in the background and automatically polls On Demand Migration for switch tasks at regular intervals. Users no longer need to manually start the agent; after installation it will automatically start on the next sign-in or reboot, and will open on the desktop to prompt for processing when action is required.
Processing can also be postponed by end users for several minutes or hours, providing greater flexibility.

NOTE: On the Switch Application Task's Schedule tab, the default option has changed from Run Now to Schedule. |

Migration administrators should schedule Switch Applications tasks so that they are not run until prerequisite migration project steps have been completed and their help desk is ready to support users, if necessary. |
-
Migration administrators can now view installed Desktop Update Agent reports directly in the On Demand Migration interface, improving visibility and management of agent deployments.
