Dark theme extended to one customer voice (OCV) wizard

The Configuration Manager console now extends the dark theme for the one customer voice (OCV) wizards. All 'Send a smile' and 'Send a frown' wizards will adhere to dark theme starting in Technical Preview 2303. This is part of the ongoing effort to make dark theme and overall admin console experience better.

To use the theme, select the arrow from the top left of the ribbon, then choose Switch console theme. Select Switch console theme again to return to the light theme.

Known issue

Console restart is required on doing the theme switch, as the node navigation pane might not properly render when you move to a new workspace.

Prerequisites for the site server roles now include ODBC driver for SQL Server

Starting with technical preview 2303, Configuration Manager requires the installation of the ODBC driver for SQL server as a prerequisite. This prerequisite is required when you create a new site or update an existing one.

Configuration Manager doesn't manage the updates for the ODBC driver. Ensure that this component is up to date.
