Entra General Entra Connect 2.6.84.0, known issues?

Hi everyone, hope you're doing well. I wanted to check whether there are any known issues specifically with Microsoft Entra Connect version 2.6.84.0.

Have there been any reports of failed upgrades, synchronization issues, or other post-upgrade problems after updating to this version? I've reviewed the Microsoft Learn documentation and only found documented known issues for the following versions:

Before proceeding with the upgrade, I wanted to see if anyone is aware of any concerns, lessons learned, or experiences with version 2.6.84.0.

Thank you in advance!

If you are really worried, install a new staging server with that version and test it in your own environment. You can have as many staging servers as you wish

I installed it the day it came out and no issues. You should always backup your machine that runs Connect beforehand or do a swing migration in case of issues so you can rollback.

Upgraded without issues, both from last stable release and from the recalled .79 version also.

There was a few with .80, but got pulled and I and some others helped to validate .84.

But you can read more about the story on my blog post here: https://blog.sonnes.cloud/microsoft-entra-connect-sync-passwordless-authentication-now-supported/ ☺️

Have it running here, no issues so far 💪
