Incident Management release notes
®
The ServiceNow Incident Management application restores normal service operations while
minimizing the impact to business operations and maintaining quality. Incident Management

Incident Management highlights for the Yokohama release
• Increase the operational efficiency of the tier 1 service desk agents with the dedicated
sn_service_desk_agent role.
• Control whether an incident or major incident record link in an email notification redirects
you to the record in the classic UI16 interface or Service Operations Workspace (SOW).
• Enable agents with incident write access, callers, requesters, and Opened by end users
to reopen a resolved incident from the Incident Management classic UI16 form, SOW, or

See Incident Management for more information.
New in the Yokohama release
User role for service desk agents
With the sn_service_desk_agent user role, increase the operational efficiency by
streamlining the process of asking about, gathering, and verifying information,
as well as delivering quick resolutions. This role is designed for tier 1 service
desk agents and is accessible when the ITSM Roles plugin (com.snc.itsm.roles)
installed.
The sn_service_desk_agent role includes the following user roles:
• sn_incident_write
• sn_problem_write
• sn_change_write
• sn_request_write

Enhanced security model adoption for incident tables
Help prevent unauthorized access to incident-related tables using Deny-Unless
ACLs. A Deny-Unless authentication ACL restricts access for a non-authenticated
user, such as a public role user. Without access, the user can't perform any
actions on incident-related tables, including reading, writing, deleting, creating,
or accessing the report view.
This feature is activated automatically and applicable on the following incident-
related tables:

Changed in this release
Email redirection behavior for major incident email notification links
In major incident email notifications, you can now decide where the links
to a major incident record are redirected. Instead of a major incident
record automatically opening in the classic UI16 interface in Major Incident
Management, the record can be opened in SOW. The major incident record link
in an email notification opens in SOW only if the following conditions are met:
• The Redirect SOW Email notification (sow_email_notification_redirect)
property is set to true. Setting this property to true enables the email
redirection behavior for all tables including major incident.
• The Redirect SOW Email notification for Major Incident Management
(sn_major_inc_mgmt.sow_email_notification_redirect.mim) property is
set to true.
• You have the sn_sow_user role.
The ITSM Notifications Redirection (com.snc.itsm.notifications_redirection) plugin
is installed and activated automatically to support this behavior.

the email redirection behavior specifically for the incident table. This
property, if created and set, overrides the Redirect SOW Email notification
(sow_email_notification_redirect) base system property.
The ITSM Notifications Redirection (com.snc.itsm.notifications_redirection) plugin
is installed and activated automatically to support this behavior.
Incident and problem workflow changes
When a problem is fixed and the Share fix option is triggered, the event is added
to the Work notes (Private) field instead of the Additional comments (Customer
visible) field for the incident associated with the problem record.
This feature is available in the base system for the new customers. For existing or
upgrade customers, admin must set the Problem to incident work notes default
(sn_sow_inc.problem.to.incident.worknotes.default) system property to
true to enable the feature.
Changes in the reopening incident behavior
Enable the agents with incident write access, callers, requesters, or Opened by
end users to reopen a resolved incident. Both the caller and the requester can
view and use the Reopen option on the incident classic UI16 form and the Portal
UIs, such as Service Portal and Employee Service Center (ESC) portal.
An agent can view and use the Reopen option on the incident classic UI16 form
to reopen any incident that is assigned to them or to other agents. However, on
the Portal UI, an agent can only view and use the Reopen option to reopen an
incident if it’s assigned to them.
Sorting CIs in incident forms
The search performance of the available CIs for the Configuration item
field on an incident form is enhanced to promote a clean UI and quick
loading and sorting of the CIs. The search results that list the CIs are sorted
alphabetically by CI name instead of by CI class and then CI name. The
ref_ac_order_by=sys_class_name attribute is removed from the default attributes
on the cmdb_ci field of the Task [task] table, which increases the performance
of the field.
This change is applicable to new and existing users using the default attributes.
You can use the Override attributes option to restrict this change for any
required child tables that extend to the cmdb_ci field of the Task [task] table.
Activation information
Incident Management is a Now Platform feature that is active by default.

View the device health of user assets
DEX is integrated with SOW to monitor CIs or assets associated with SOW records
such as incidents and interactions to determine the health of devices. You can
view the device health information of the user's assets on the Record information
side panel of the incident and interactions record page. This feature is available
only if the DEX plugin [sn_dex] is installed and DEX monitoring is enabled for the

Using MRA Async for adding child incident, affected CIs, impacted services and assets
When adding a list containing more than 50 child incidents, affected CIs,
impacted services or assets from the Overview tab or Related records tab of an
incident or problem record, the Multiple Record Associator (MRA) component
batch processes in async and helps adding them in background thereby
increasing the overall performance of the system. This feature works only if
the number of items to be added is more than 50 as the async Threshold
configuration property is set to 50.
Viewing the device health of the user assets
View the device health information of the user's assets from the Assigned assets
section on the Record information side panel of the incident and interactions
record page. This helps in providing a quick resolution to the user. This feature

enabled for the asset.

upgrade experience.
ServiceNow upgrades
The upgrade process moves your instance to a new ServiceNow release version. Understand
the difference between upgrading and patching, release definitions, rollback and backup
options, and how to test your non-production and production instance upgrades.
Before you begin the upgrade process, read the Yokohama release notes and review the
upgrade and migration tasks for your applications and features.
System upgrades can be significant projects. Each ServiceNow feature release includes
major additions, and you should always consider the impact of new functionality on an
instance. Upgrading implements enhancements to all features that are part of the base
system or are already active, unless the feature is customized on your instance. For a list of
all available plugins and whether they are active by default on the base system, see List of
Yokohama plugins .
Careful preparation and knowledge of the available software, tools, and resources can
contribute to a successful upgrade. In addition to the materials provided by ServiceNow,
it is important to understand how your ServiceNow instance is currently operating and the
performance level of key business functionality. Set the expectation with IT and business
users that time must be dedicated to preparing for, implementing, and testing ServiceNow
upgrades.
If you have any issues during the upgrade process, contact Customer Service and Support .
Customer Service and Support is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to assist you with
any questions or issues.

For additional help with upgrades, ServiceNow also offers various Production Readiness
Services . These services specifically address challenges with instance upgradability,
manageability, scalability, and performance. The reviews are performed by a ServiceNow
certified professional consultant, who provide recommendations to align customer
configurations with ServiceNow best practices. Contact your ServiceNow sales representative
for more details.
Upgrade and update durations in Yokohama
The upgrade process takes a significantly shorter time for both updates and upgrades. (An
update occurs when an instance moves from one patch or hotfix to another within the same
release family. An upgrade occurs when an instance moves from one release family to
another). As always, test your upgrades, but don't assume from the much faster completion
time that the update or upgrade wasn't successful.
Supported upgrades
You can upgrade directly to the latest release family. If multiple software versions are
involved in your upgrade, be sure to consult the release notes for each version between
your current version and the target version. For more information about release terminology
and availability phases, see the ServiceNow Release Cycle [KB0547244] article in the Now
Support Knowledge Base.
Upgrades vs. updates
ServiceNow organizes its releases into families. A family is a set of releases that are named
after a major city, such as Yokohama. Families also contain patches and hotfixes. For
example, the following releases are both part of the Orlando family:
• Orlando Patch 4
• Orlando Patch 3 Hotfix 2
Upgrading is the act of moving to a release that is in a different family than your current
release. For example, a move from London Patch 7 to Orlando Patch 3 is an upgrade
because London and Orlando are different families.
Updating is the act of moving from one patch or hotfix to another within the same release
family. For example, a move from Orlando Patch 1 to Orlando Patch 3 is a update because
both versions are part of the Orlando family.
In both cases, the target release is Orlando Patch 3. It is the difference between your current
and target release family that determines whether you are upgrading or updating.
Features, patches, and hotfixes
Each release family contains features, patches, and hotfixes.
A feature provides a complete solution that customers can implement to add value to their
organization. New features are generally only available as part of a feature release. Features
are supported with patches and hotfixes.

Type Scope
Feature
• Introduces new features
• Includes all available fixes to existing functionality
• Is production-oriented; quality and stability are of the highest
priority throughout the lifecycle
Patch
• Supports existing functionality with a collection of problem fixes
• Generally does not include new features
Hotfix
• Supports existing functionality with a specific problem fix for a
feature release
• May or may not include any previous fixes for a given release
• Does not include new features
For more information about release terminology and availability phases, see the ServiceNow
Release Cycle [KB0547244] article in the Now Support Knowledge Base.
Rollbacks and backups
When you plan an upgrade, remember that ServiceNow does not provide a universal
rollback option. Rollbacks are available for updates (for example, Yokohama patch-to-
patch and Yokohama patch-to-hotfix). The rollback window is 10 days by default. You can
customize this window by modifying the glide.rollback.expiration_days property. To
request a rollback, contact Customer Service and Support .
Avoid restoring a production instance from backup, when possible, due to downtime and
data loss. When a problem cannot be solved using other methods, restoring a production
instance from backup is a final option. ServiceNow can restore an instance to any point in
time, regardless of when a backup is completed. Customer Service and Support provides
support 24 hours a day, 7 days a week for assistance with critical post-upgrade issues.
Note: ServiceNow does not perform on-demand backups. Instances are
automatically backed up daily during non-peak business hours on schedules defined by
ServiceNow. The timing of existing backup schedules is not adjusted.
Testing throughout upgrades
Testing is an integral portion that occurs after each instance is upgraded. After you upgrade
an instance, test and validate it.
This instance naming convention assumes that you have three ServiceNow instances. If you
have three instances, upgrade your instances in this order:
1. Development
2. Test
3. Production

If you have more or less than three instances, or if you are using Team Development , these
instance labels will be different. In general, upgrade your instances furthest from production
towards your production instance.
Instance Type of testing required
Development Conduct smoke tests.
Test
• Use the ServiceNow Automated Test Framework to assist you in
testing your non-production instances.
• You can use Automated Test Framework quick start tests and
product testing suites to help you jump start your testing before
and after upgrades. For a list of available tests and activation
information, see Quick start tests .
• For extra testing coverage, you can also conduct user
acceptance testing (UAT) on your non-production instances.
Production Conduct UAT.
Note: The Automated Test Framework is intended for use
on non-production instances. On your production instance,
conduct UAT only.
If you encounter any post-upgrade issues, document the issue's conditions, steps to
reproduce the issue, and your customizations. Contact Customer Service and Support to
open an incident for each issue, and provide this information accordingly. Customer Service
and Support is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to assist you with any questions or
issues.
Pre- and post-upgrade tasks for various products
In preparation for your upgrade, review the upgrade and migration tasks for various
applications and features. Plan to complete these tasks, when applicable, before or after
the upgrade is complete.

Upgrades and the ServiceNow Store
The ServiceNow Store includes official applications that are developed and released by
ServiceNow. Users can download, access, and configure Yokohama apps on their instances.
Store application versions can be upgraded when you upgrade your instance to a new
release version.
®
New versions for a ServiceNow Store app can be defined in patch and family releases. This
includes the ability to define a minimum version and/or a hotfix for a version you already
have installed. If your instance has an installed app version below the defined minimum
version, the app will be upgraded to the minimum required version. Similarly, if your instance
has an installed app below the defined hotfix version, your app will be upgraded to the hotfix
version.
For example, consider an application that defines these versions in a release: 1.7.0, 2.4.1, and
3.0.1. In this example, version 1.7.0 is the minimum version. Versions 2.4.1 and 3.0.1 are hotfix
versions.
When an instance upgrades to the release version, the following behavior occurs:
Minimum version upgrades
Version installed before the upgrade Expected version after the upgrade
1.0.0 1.7.0 - The version upgrades to the minimum
version
1.3.2 1.7.0 - The version upgrades to the minimum
version
1.7.0 1.7.0 - The version stays the same, because
the instance was already on the minimum
version
1.7.2 1.7.2 - The version stays the same, because
the instance was already ahead of the
minimum version
Hotfix version upgrades
Version installed before the upgrade Expected version after the upgrade
1.8.0 1.8.0 - The version stays the same, because
the instance was already ahead of the
defined hotfix version
2.0.0 2.4.1 - The version upgrades to the defined
hotfix version

Hotfix version upgrades (continued)
Version installed before the upgrade Expected version after the upgrade
2.6.0 2.6.0 - The version stays the same, because
the instance was already ahead of the
defined hotfix version
3.0.0 3.0.1 - The version upgrades to the defined
hotfix version
3.0.5 3.0.5 - The version stays the same, because
the instance was already ahead of the
defined hotfix version
4.0.0 4.0.0 - The version stays the same, because
there are no hotfix versions defined for
4.0.0+.
Upgrade to the Yokohama release
Upgrading and patching your instance requires planning, testing, and validation. To ensure
a safe and effective upgrade, read the release notes, create upgrade plans, and test your
upgrade on non-production instances before upgrading your production instance.
Important: These topics contain in-depth explanations about upgrades. For a step-
by-step reference of upgrade steps, refer to the Upgrade planning checklist.
Phase 1 - Read the release notes and plan your upgrade
Before you begin the upgrade process, it is essential to read
the release notes for your target version so you understand the
required upgrade and migration tasks. This information helps
you plan a safe and effective upgrade.
Phase 2 - Prepare for the development instance upgrade
For a better understanding of your production upgrade
duration, request a full clone of your production instance
(including large tables and attachments) onto a non-
production instance. Confirm your current and target release
versions, because you will later use this information when
scheduling your upgrade in Now Support.
Phase 3 - Verify your upgrade configurations and schedule the
development instance upgrade in Now Support
Check the configuration of the Check distribution for
possible upgrade scheduled job to view how often and
when it runs. Review information about timing your upgrade in
coordination with the Check distribution for possible
upgrade scheduled job. Then, schedule your upgrade in Now
Support.

Phase 4 - Upgrade and validate the development instance
Track the progress of your upgrades with the Upgrade
Monitor. For your first non-production instance upgrade (your
development instance), use the Upgrade Monitor to process
the skipped list of records that were not addressed in the
upgrade. Then identify your update sets and perform functional
testing.
Phase 5 - If applicable: Upgrade and validate your other non-
production instances, such as your test instance
After you've configured and refined your development
instance, request to upgrade any other non-production
instances you have, such as a test instance. Immediately after
the upgrade is complete, apply the post-upgrade changes
made to your development instance, including activating
optional plugins, installing and upgrading applications, and
applying update sets.
Phase 6 - Prepare to upgrade the production instance
After you have configured and refined your test environment
to be a good representation of your production environment,
prepare to upgrade your production instance.
Phase 7 - Upgrade the production instance
After you have upgraded your development, non-production,
and test instances, upgrade your production instance last. Then
validate that the upgrade was complete, apply update sets
and fix scripts, and perform post-upgrade user acceptance
testing (UAT).
Phase 1 - Read the release notes and plan your upgrade
Before you begin the upgrade process, it is essential to read the release notes for your target
version so you understand the required upgrade and migration tasks. This information helps
you plan a safe and effective upgrade.
Before you begin
Important: If multiple software versions are involved in your upgrade, be sure to
consult the release notes for each version between your current version and the target
version.

About this task
Procedure
1. Read the release notes for your target version.
Review upgrade and migration tasks that you will need to complete before or after your
upgrade.
◦ ServiceNow provides release notes for every release. The release notes offer valuable
information about new functionality, notable changes, and fixes available in a particular
version. Read the Yokohama release notes to determine whether the upgrade contains
functionality you need and fixes that resolve any issues affecting your instance. The
release notes can also help you determine whether items you previously customized are
being upgraded.
◦ For Yokohama -specific upgrade considerations, see Pre- and post-upgrade tasks for
various products.
◦ If you are thinking about upgrading to the Yokohama family, problem (PRB) fixes can be
an important factor in your upgrade plans. You can generate a list of . Compare the lists
of fixed problems across various Yokohama upgrade scenarios to help you decide which
release version to upgrade to.
2. Complete the preparation and planning tasks in Phase 2 of the Upgrade planning
checklist.
The checklist contains a list of planning tasks that guide you through various aspects
of upgrade preparation. You are guided through tasks such as scoping, gathering
stakeholders, identifying features to disable and enable, and creating test plans to use
throughout the upgrade. Follow these steps to ensure that all aspects of your organization
are ready for the upgrade.
3. To better prepare for the upgrade, evaluate the level of customizations on your instances.
For information on customization best practice guidelines, visit the Customer Success
Center website .

Note: The Automated Test Framework is intended for use
on non-production instances. On your production instance,
conduct UAT only.
Phase 2 - Prepare for the development instance upgrade
For a better understanding of your production upgrade duration, request a full clone of
your production instance (including large tables and attachments) onto a non-production
instance. Confirm your current and target release versions, because you will later use this
information when scheduling your upgrade in Now Support.

About this task
Procedure
1. On your production instance, create a system clone and select your development
instance as the Target instance.
The clone provides you with an exact copy of production. Performing an upgrade on
your clone allows you to simulate an upgrade on your production configuration in a non-
production environment. Refer to System clone for details.
Important:
For effective upgrade testing, use this clone to test on a system that reflects the
production instance as closely as possible. If your non-production and production
instances are the same size, include the production audit log and the attachment
data on your production clone. To ensure that all production data is included with the
clone, make sure that you clear all the Exclude check boxes on the Request Clone
form. On your non-production instance, replicate typical user behaviors that occur on
your production instance to enhance an estimate of your upgrade duration.
2. Set expectations for performance during upgrades.
During an upgrade, your performance may be impacted because your nodes initiate
the distribution upgrade. All nodes are restarted during an upgrade, but your multi-node
instances are available during an upgrade because ServiceNow instances operate on a
multi-node system. This multi-node system staggers node distribution upgrades, ensuring
that there is at least one active pair of nodes for multi-node instances during an upgrade.
To help you set accurate expectations for performance during upgrades, be aware of
the differences between the nodes on your non-production and production instances.
Instances with one node experience a short period of downtime during the upgrade, but
multi-node instances do not have UI downtime. For details on your nodes and their status,
see the Upgrade Progress screen.
Phase 3 - Verify your upgrade configurations and schedule the
development instance upgrade in Now Support
Check the configuration of the Check distribution for possible upgrade scheduled
job to view how often and when it runs. Review information about timing your upgrade in
coordination with the Check distribution for possible upgrade scheduled job. Then,
schedule your upgrade in Now Support.

Role required: admin.
You must check the configuration of the Check distribution for possible upgrade and Check
database for possible upgrade sys_triggers, which are essential to making sure your instance
upgrades to the correct target version.
Note: Starting in the Paris release, 'Upgrade' job has been renamed to 'Check
distribution for possible upgrade'. In addition, the 'Check Upgrade Script' job has been
renamed to 'Check database for possible upgrade'.

About this task
Important: Your upgrades are orchestrated out of your instance, not Now Support.
Now Support keeps records of what version you should be running, and your instance
periodically queries Now Support to check its assigned version. When you designate a time
for your upgrade, your instance begins the upgrade at that time. For example:

About this task
The Upgrade Monitor helps you upgrade an individual instance. You can monitor the
progress of an upgrade and resolve conflicts between the upgrade and customizations.
Procedure
1. Using the Upgrade Monitor, monitor the upgrade to your instance and validate that the
upgrade to your development instance is complete.
2. After the upgrade for your development instance is complete, process the skipped records
list in the Upgrade Monitor.
As you are processing the skipped list, you may merge and revert records, resolve conflicts
for an individual record, and make additional customizations. These changes go into the
latest version, which goes into your current update set.
3. Identify your update sets.
You need these update sets for your subsequent non-production instances. If there are
issues that must be addressed after the upgrade, make the appropriate changes and they
will go into your current update set. Collect the update sets that:
◦ Were created while reviewing the skipped updates list.
◦ Were created while changing customizations to work with the latest release.
◦ Must go live immediately after your next upgrade.
Gathering these update sets before your upgrade expedites the process of exporting,
importing, and committing them onto your other instances. After the correct update sets
are identified, follow the standard process for moving and applying those update sets.
Refer to System update sets for details.
4. Before and after upgrading, conduct smoke tests on your development instance. Use your
comprehensive test plan to perform functional testing.
After upgrading, track any defects or deviations from the pre-upgrade testing results.
Defect tracking can help identify root causes and create fixes. When a fix is identified,
capture the fix in a single update set. The resulting update sets hold the cumulative fixes
that should be applied to the production instance.
To help automate your testing and validation on non-production instances, use the
Automated Test Framework . You can use Automated Test Framework quick start tests and
product testing suites to help you jump start your testing before and after upgrades. For a
list of available tests and activation information, see Quick start tests .

Phase 5 - If applicable: Upgrade and validate your other non-
production instances, such as your test instance
After you've configured and refined your development instance, request to upgrade
any other non-production instances you have, such as a test instance. Immediately after
the upgrade is complete, apply the post-upgrade changes made to your development
instance, including activating optional plugins, installing and upgrading applications, and
applying update sets.
Before you begin
Role required: admin.
About this task
This instance naming convention assumes that you have three ServiceNow instances. If you
have three instances, upgrade your instances in this order:
1. Development
2. Test
3. Production
If you have more or less than three instances, or if you are using Team Development , these
instance labels will be different. In general, upgrade your instances furthest from production
towards your production instance.
After you have applied your development update sets to your test instance, perform the
following tasks on your test instance (and other non-production instances, if applicable).
Procedure
1. Create a system clone down from your production instance.
2. Schedule the non-production upgrade in Now Support and verify your upgrade
configurations.
3. Validate that the upgrade to your non-production instance is complete.
4. Install any optional plugins that were installed on your development instance.
5. Install any custom applications and post-upgrade fix scripts that you need.
6. Install update sets.
Use these update sets to move your initial changes into your subsequent non-production
instances.
7. Perform functional testing and monitor the performance of your instance.

Phase 6 - Prepare to upgrade the production instance
After you have configured and refined your test environment to be a good representation of
your production environment, prepare to upgrade your production instance.
Before you begin
Role required: admin.
To ensure that all stakeholders in your company are prepared for the final production
upgrade, complete the administrative planning tasks in Phase 6 of the Upgrade planning
checklist. When upgrading a production instance:
• Obtain confirmation from IT and management that all non-production instance defects
have been fixed, validated, and included in an update set.
• Use the change management process established by your organization to track the
upgrade.
• Communicate effectively with your user community regarding changes, new features, and
process updates resulting from the upgrade.
• Negotiate a suitable upgrade time for all users of the ServiceNow system.
For example, schedule the upgrade after hours, to minimize impact to your users.
Remember to schedule the upgrade to occur 15–20 minutes before the Upgrade
scheduled job interval.
• Allow time in your change window to run all test cases and validate that all integrations,
key business functionality, and system performance are acceptable. Add a time buffer for
responding to errors without breaching the change window.
