## Deployment notes
### Standard deployment
This maintenance release follows standard FlowX.AI deployment procedures with no special considerations:
1. Update container images to 5.1.6 versions listed in the table
2. Deploy services using your standard deployment process
3. Verify deployment via **FlowX Designer > Platform Status**
### Configuration changes
This release introduces optional environment variables for the process engine retry mechanism. These are not required — defaults work for most deployments.
#### Process engine — retry configuration (optional)
The following optional environment variables configure the exponential backoff with Equal Jitter strategy used for optimistic locking retries:
| Environment Variable | Description | Default Value | Component |
| --------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------- | ------------- | -------------- |
| `FLOWX_RETRY_MAX_RETRIES` | Maximum retry attempts (total = max + 1 including initial) | `9` | process-engine |
| `FLOWX_RETRY_BASE_DELAY_MS` | Initial backoff delay in milliseconds | `10` | process-engine |
| `FLOWX_RETRY_MAX_DELAY_MS` | Maximum backoff delay cap in milliseconds | `200` | process-engine |
No required configuration changes
No database migrations
No breaking changes
Compatible with existing 5.1.5 processes and configurations
### What's included in 5.1.6
This maintenance release includes:
* **Bug fixes** for React renderer: modals, sliders, datepicker, selectors, disabled state, and accessibility
* **Bug fixes** for Angular + React renderer: card accordion height, focus outlines, button icon layout
* **Bug fix** for process engine advancing getting stuck on pod crash
* **Bug fix** for connection leak in application-manager export/import
* **Improvement** for configurable retry mechanism with exponential backoff
* **Security patches** across all platform components
