Deprecation of LCS diagnostics and monitoring - Phase I getting started from September 2024

Urminavo Das Profile Picture Urminavo Das 81

We, who are in Microsoft Dynamics world and are working in AX 2012 and Finance and Operations, are accustomed using LCS for years now. We were also aware for quite some time that LCS will get deprecated in a phased manner. For those who are new to this world, Lifecycle Services (LCS) for Microsoft Dynamics is a collaboration portal that provides an environment and a set of regularly updated services that help us manage the application lifecycle of our implementations of finance and operations apps.

Now the time has come, and we are just a month away from first phase, which will help us to initiate our journey, and to get accustomed to the workloads getting migrated from LCS. This phase has details about the removal of several features related to diagnostics and environment monitoring that either had extreme low usage or are replaced by newer capabilities.

This is a multi-phased approach with details shared below. 

  • Full system diagnostics:
    • September first week, a feature flag will be enabled, this will hide the Full System Diagnostics link from Finance and Operations Cloud-hosted environments as well as in AX 2012 related projects.
    • Due to extreme low utilization, and the fact that this portal is not used by Sandbox or Production environments, it is now being deprecated. This feature is replaced by Optimization Advisor workspace in each Finance and Operations environment.
  • Environment Monitoring – Phase 1:
    • September first week, a feature flag will be enabled that will hide the following aspects within Environment Monitoring. This will first impact customer tenants who have not used these features in the last 90 days. After 15 days, we will impact more broadly. After 30 days, we will impact all customers.
    • Activity Tab
      • Get user Login Events
      • Get Error Events for Form
      • Get Connection Outages
      • Get Slow Interactions
      • Get All Events for Activity
      • Get All Events for Failed Batch Job
      • Get Errors for Activity
      • Get Distinct Users
      • Get Events for User
      • Get Events for Browser Sessions
      • Get Weak Ciphers Usage
    • All of the above are either not used by customers or the capabilities have full feature parity in Application Insights, which became GA in 10.0.39.
