Yes, that's a bug in Windows installer. We plan to publish patch release 6.0.3 today or tomorrow, it will have skill files included.
In the meantime, you can try to place them into correct folder manually. All skill files can be downloaded from here: https://github.com/netxms/netxms/tree/master/src/server/aitools/skills

We just published patch release 2 for version 6.0. Changes since previous patch release:

- Added wireless controller bridge for UniFi controllers (PR #255)
- Small fixes in background conversion of collected data
- Improved AI assistant guardrails
- Added internal metrics for monitoring AI providers usage
- Added TLS support in web API using monitored reproxy process
Fixed issues:
  - NX-1658 (Drag and Drop confirmation prompt)
  - NX-2495 (Do not treat disk I/O error as file rotation in log file monitoring)
  - NX-2900 (Business Service check script editor should have hint)
  - NX-2907 (ssh.nsm can not be loaded on Windows)
  - NX-2913 (Cluster DCI is not populated to nodes under cluster)
  - NX-2919 (Push DCI from agent log parsing may come in wrong order)
  - NX-2925 (Proxy selector should show only relevant objects)

Show your netxmsd.conf please.

Can you show virtual and physical memory consumption for netxmsd process specifically?

Just published version 6.0.1 that should address database upgrade issue. Now it does not convert data immediately, but do this in background while server is running, in chunks by 24 hors, so you should gradually get your collected data back, starting from most recent.

So, we just published patch release 1 for version 6.0. It mostly addresses critical issues with database upgrade. Full change log is following:
-   Improved database upgrade procedure (no long data conversion during upgrade)
-   Agent environment can be set from server using custom attributes
-   Fixed object names not resolved on "Dashboards and Maps" property page (showing object IDs instead of names)
-   Fixed missing action list loading in Event Processing Policy editor
-   Fixed business service uptime calculation for business services containing other business services
-   Fixed database upgrade procedure failure on Microsoft SQL Server
-   Added support for Anthropic API for AI agent
-   Implemented changes proposed in PR #155 (IP address wipe on DNS resolution failure and DNS resolution conflict detection)

Quote from: batnator on February 09, 2026, 05:36:05 AMThank you for the new release. Is it possible to again provide a statically linked binary of the agent for Linux x86_64 as a download (like nxagent-5.2.8-linux-x86_64-static.tar.gz)?

I think yes, we will bring those back in a few days. Can you explain a use case for those? I'd think that nowadays agents mostly deployed from deb or rpm packages.

I'm looking into it. We expect to have patch release 6.0.1 with improved DB upgrade on Monday.

Important notice
If you have relatively large database (starting with few hundred of nodes or few thousands of DCIs or long retention time) - delay upgrade to 6.0 until patch release 6.0.1, which we plan for Monday. Unfortunately, current DB migration procedure turns out to be inefficient for bigger databases, so we are working on an updated one.

I will fix upgrade procedure. In the meantime, you can drop and re-create tables idata and tdata (they should be empty as they normally not used in MS SQL setup, so just to make upgrade procedure work):

DROP TABLE idata;
CREATE TABLE idata
(
   item_id integer not null,
   idata_timestamp integer not null,
   idata_value varchar(255) null,
   raw_value varchar(255) null
);
DROP TABLE tdata;
CREATE TABLE tdata
(
   item_id integer not null,
   tdata_timestamp integer not null,
   tdata_value varchar(max) null
);

and then re-run nxdbmgr upgrade.

We finally published NetXMS version 6.0. It is major release with lot of changes. Most notable changes are:

- Integrated AI assistant and AI agent
- AI-powered anomaly detection
- Built-in basic incident management
- Legacy UI is finally dropped
- Data collection now uses millisecond timestamps, allowing multiple values per second

Important notice: database upgrade will convert timestamps for collected data into milliseconds, and that can take significant amount of time, so plan upgrade accordingly.

We just published patch release 8 for version 5.2. Now this one should really be the final one before upcoming release 6.0. Most important change is database schema rollback to pre-5.2.5 state for PostgreSQL database, which should fix DCI processing issues when data is pushed multiple times per second. Full change log is following:
- Structure of idata and tdata tables on PostgreSQL reverted to previous schema
- nxadm command line option to check if server process is running and has completed initialization
- Fixed bug in reading physical disk information on Windows
- Fixed command injection vulnerability in PhysicalDisk.* metrics
- Fixed issues:
  - NX-2656 (Improve UX of the notification popup - X should close message, not the whole dialog)
  - NX-2801 (New version of JQ library on Windows)
  - NX-2827 (Allow editing of tools added to Object Tools dashboard element)
  - NX-2872 (%d format string incorrectly handled in chart legend)
  - NX-2875 (PhysicalDisk.SmartAttr() metric not working)
  - NX-2876 (Incorrect value for System.CPU.Count on Windows machines with more than 64 logical processors)

We just published patch release 7 for version 5.2. It fixes some important bugs, along with some improvements. Full change log since previous patch release:

- Subagent for monitoring Redis database
- Optimizations in server process memory usage
- Fixed bug that cause completed system scheduled tasks not being deleted from database
- Fixed incorrect behavior of NXSL functions Math::Min and Math::Max when first argument is an array

- Fixed issues:
  - NX-2594 (Possible server deadlock in network discovery)
  - NX-2652 (Improve overview page for interfaces)
  - NX-2813 (duplicate key value violates unique constraint "interface\_vlan\_list\_pkey")
  - NX-2836 (Unbind not working from Agent Tunnels view)
  - NX-2837 (Cannot read threshold summary: incompatible operation in Thresholds view on rack)

I likely fixed it in upcoming 5.2.7, but test on real device is required.

We have published patch release 6 fro NetXMS 5.2 It fixes DB upgrade issue for PostgreSQL as well as few other less important issues.

Full change log since release 5.2.5:
- Added database manager lock to prevent starting background upgrade when it is already running
- Post-upgrade welcome page can be disabled in client preferences
- Fixed bug in handling of duplicate samples sent by agent in cache mode
- Fixed bug in upgrading PostgreSQL database with duplicate data records
