not always move the devices properly and, sometimes, associated
submaps did not move with the maps.

Capabilities field on the DeviceView > Ports and Port Tree views.
The message no longer displays.

The Archived Devices ring chart on the Impact Analysis dashboard
could not be configured to display the number of archives created for
devices over a duration of more or less than 30 days. Users can now
configure the duration from which the total number of device archives
is calculated and displayed on the Impact Analysis dashboard via the
Administration > Options > Impact Analysis tab.
Additionally, when an archive was not created successfully, alarms
did not clearly explain the issue. Events that indicate a device archive
failure are now prepended with Failed to more clearly indicate the
issue.

Administrator-selected options were sometimes being ignored when
the list of Archived devices was updated.
