A separate table documents the reduced trust store on SMIPS devices (DigiCert Global Root G2, ISRG Root X1/X2, ISRG Root YE/YR). The list is also noted as accessible at
/certificate/builtin/.
System
- Scheduler: Documented the
daysparameter, which restricts a task to specific days of the week (mon,wed,fri, oralways). The property list was converted to a proper table and gained thepolicyparameter,start-time=startupis now documented on thestart-timerow, and a new example shows a task that runs only on business days.
