# Compatibility, releases, and troubleshooting

### Compatibility checks

Before deployment or upgrade, verify the Decentralization Manager tag and commit, image digest, Canton version, Daml SDK, Rust and Node.js versions, database schema, governance and module package IDs, identity provider, supported deployment, and peer protocol compatibility.

### What release notes cover

* Status and date.
* New capabilities.
* Breaking changes.
* Security fixes.
* Database and package migrations.
* Required mesh upgrade behavior.
* Known issues.
* Deprecations.
* Download and checksum links.

### Troubleshooting order

1. Confirm every peer’s release and protocol compatibility.
2. Check health and logs.
3. Verify identity provider and Canton connections.
4. Check persistent volume and Noise identity.
5. Inspect workflow and contract state.
6. Collect sanitized evidence before changing configuration.

# 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://docs.bitsafe.finance/decentralization-manager/operations-and-reference/compatibility-releases-and-troubleshooting.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.
