Show full answer Show less ## Important Upgrade Information * **Yokohama:** Post-upgrade, the `sysphysicaltablestats` table may not show the latest table size data. To correct this, set the system property `com.glide.stats.storagediskusage.informationschema` to `true` to enable accurate database statistics gathering. * Automatic creation of data management policy records occurs for tables with existing archive or table cleaner rules during upgrade. * **Zurich and Australia:** No specific upgrade issues were reported. ## New Features * **Yokohama:** * Data Management Console provides a summary of instance storage consumption and data growth management. * Enhanced scalability for the table cleaner feature to automatically delete older or unwanted records at scale. * **Zurich:** * Expanded Data Management Console capabilities to monitor data usage at the table level, including associated tables for attachments, audit records, and journals. * Support for viewing data usage for logical tables such as Incident, Problem, and Change Request. * Insights into which tables drive growth in related tables. * Rule summary views for backlog record counts and execution history of data management rules. * **Australia:** * Data Management rules wizard enables creation and management of archive, cleanup, and one-time delete rules within the Data Management Console. * Bulk restore of archived records directly from the console. * Ability to archive data and attachments in external object storage (columnar format) to free primary instance storage and improve active data query performance; requires RaptorDB Professional V2 and Live Archive subscription. * Granular administrative role `datamgmttoolsadmin` allows basic Data Management tasks without granting full admin rights. ## Changes * **Yokohama:** Access to Data Management Console is available via `All > System Data Management > Data Management Console`. * **Zurich:** Introduction of Coral theme as the default for portals and mobile apps, including a dark theme option to improve usability and accessibility. * **Australia:** No changes reported. ## Deprecations and Removed Features * The Data Usage Visualization Console dashboard was deprecated in Zurich; its functionality is replaced by the enhanced Data Management Console. * No other features were removed or deprecated from Yokohama to Australia. ## Activation and Additional Requirements * Data Management is a ServiceNow AI Platform capability active by default across Yokohama, Zurich, and Australia releases. * System archiving is active by default starting with Australia. * Storing archive data in object storage requires installation of the Live Archive plugin and a separate subscription. ## Accessibility and Localization * The Coral theme introduced in Zurich includes a dark mode option to reduce eye strain and enhance readability. * No specific localization or additional accessibility updates were noted for Australia. ## Practical Benefits for ServiceNow Customers * Manage and monitor data storage growth efficiently through the unified Data Management Console. * Automate data cleanup and archival processes at scale, improving system performance and storage utilization. * Enhance data archival by leveraging external object storage solutions with improved performance and storage offloading. * Delegate Data Management administrative tasks securely without granting full admin rights, supporting better governance. * Prepare effectively for upgrades by understanding required system properties and default behaviors.

To see the correct table size, you can set the com.glide.stats.storage_disk_usage.information_schema system property to true, which allows the statsGatherer job to use the information schema to generate the required database statistics. * A data management policy record is automatically created for each table that is configured with an archive rule or a table cleaner rule prior to the upgrade. | | Zurich | No updates for this release. | | Australia | No updates for this release. | [ ] ## New features Between your current release family and Australia, new features were introduced for Data Management. {#dfrn3-datamanagement-summary__entry__10} | Release | Release notes | |-|-| | Yokohama | [Data Management Console](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=viewing-data-usage&family=yokohama&ft:locale=en-US) : View a summary of storage consumption on your instance and manage the growth of data directly from the Data Management Console.
