Azure-devops-docs: Capabilities Tab does not show system capabilities

Created on 12 Dec 2019  Â·  6Comments  Â·  Source: MicrosoftDocs/azure-devops-docs

The capabilities tab no longer shows the system capabilities. Where can I see the capabilities of an agent that are not user capabilities? This doc is not accurate in this respect.

I'm taking a look, thank you for letting us know.

@chrisevans9629 You can see all the software that is installed on the Microsoft-hosted agents here:

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/devops/pipelines/agents/hosted?view=azure-devops#use-a-microsoft-hosted-agent

I am finding out why that info is removed from the Capabilites tab in the Agent settings (is it a glitch or is it gone, but maybe displayed elsewhere?)

I will report back as soon as I have more info. Thank you, Steve

The links to the included software seem to be broken, for example:
https://github.com/Microsoft/azure-pipelines-image-generation/blob/master/images/macos/macos-10.14-Readme.md
@steved0x

Found them, will have the links updated shortly, here is the page for macos10.14

https://github.com/actions/virtual-environments/blob/master/images/macos/macos-10.14-Readme.md

OK found them all except for VS2015, will get that added shortly. On the Agent Pools page, system capabilities are displayed for Self-hosted agents, but system capabilities are not used for Hosted agents and so are not displayed. I have updated the documentation to cover this. As soon as I get the link for VS2015 I will get this published. Thank you for letting us know!
