# New Features

* Migration from Cortex XSOAR 6 to Cortex XSOAR 8 is now available for Hosted customers.

  Cortex XSOAR 8 has been designed to deliver improved performance and reliability. It is now highly scalable, based on revamped cloud-native microservice architecture. Palo Alto Networks manages performance and scaling, enabling you to focus on investigation and response.

  To start the migration, Hosted Service users need to upgrade to this version and will be contacted by Customer Service. For more information about the Migration process, see [Cortex XSOAR 6 Hosted Migration](https://docs-cortex.paloaltonetworks.com/r/Cortex-XSOAR/8/Cortex-XSOAR-Migration-Guide-From-V6-to-V8/Cortex-XSOAR-6-Hosted-Migration).
* Cortex XSOAR now supports:
  * RHEL: 8.x, 9.x, including all minor versions
  * Opensearch: 2.6.0, 2.9.0
* You can now edit a list installed from a content pack by detaching it. Detaching a list enables you to edit and save without having to duplicate the list.
* The `reputationCalcAsync` argument is now available for the `addEntries` command. This argument enables you to disable or enable synchronous reputation calculation and can be used to avoid script timeout issues.
* The `list.<listName>.separator` and `list.separator` server configurations now support tabs as list separators, using `\t`.
* The following server configurations have been added for Elasticsearch:
  * **`application.statistics.update.disable`**: Disables the Return on Investment (ROI) statistics flag. Recommended to change to true if you do not need ROI as it may affect performance.
  * **`elasticsearch.aggregations.optimize`**: Enables you to search with Elasticsearch aggregations rather than searching locally in Cortex XSOAR. Default is true (search with aggregations).
  * **`elasticsearch.allowOwnerAggs`**: Gets a list of suggested owners with Elasticsearch aggregations rather than locally in Cortex XSOAR. Default is true (gets a list with aggregations).
  * **`elasticsearch.maxresultwindowforindex.common-incident`**: Limits the amount of incident results returned. Default is 10,000 documents (or `maxresultwindow` if defined in `demisto.conf`). We recommend changing it to 5000, as incidents are big documents and could affect performance.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://cortex-docs.paloaltonetworks.com/xsoar-6-release-notes/6.12/release-information/new-features.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
