The user can enable/disable AUTOGROW_ALL_FILES for a particular Filegroup by toggling the corresponding Autogrow_All_Files checkbox.

- Added a scheduling feature for SSIS packages deployed to Azure SQL Database. Unlike SQL Server on premises and SQL Database Managed Instance (Preview), which have SQL Server Agent as a first-class job scheduler, SQL Database does not have a built-in scheduler. This new SSMS feature provides a familiar user interface that's similar to SQL Server Agent for scheduling packages deployed to SQL Database. If you're using SQL Database to host the SSIS catalog database, SSISDB, you can use this SSMS feature to generate the Data Factory pipelines, activities, and triggers required to schedule SSIS packages. You can then edit and extend these objects in Data Factory. For more info, see [Schedule SSIS package execution on Azure SQL Database with SSMS](../integration-services/lift-shift/ssis-azure-schedule-packages-ssms.md). To learn more about Azure Data Factory pipelines, activities, and triggers, see [Pipelines and activities in Azure Data Factory](https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/data-factory/concepts-pipelines-activities) and [Pipeline execution and triggers in Azure Data Factory](https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/data-factory/concepts-pipeline-execution-triggers).
96-
- Support for SSIS package scheduling in SQL Agent on SQL Managed instance. It is now possible to create SQL Agent jobs to execute SSIS packages on the managed instance.
101+
- Analysis Services client libraries and data providers updated to the latest version, which added support for the new Azure Government AAD authority (login.microsoftonline.us).

60+
61+
Scripting:
62+
63+
- Fixed an issue where PostProcess actions in SMO lead to resource exhaustion and SQL login failures
64+
65+
SMO:
66+
67+
- Fixed an issue where Table.Alter() fails if adding a column with a default constraint and the table already has data. For details, see [sql server smo generating inline default constraint when adding a column to a table containing data](https://feedback.azure.com/forums/908035-sql-server/suggestions/32895625).
68+
69+
Always Encrypted:
70+
71+
- Fixed an issue (in DacFx) which was causing a lock timeout error when enabling Always Encrypted on a partitioned table
72+
73+
74+
**Analysis Services (AS)**
75+
76+
- Fixed an issue that occurred when modifying an OAuth datasource in a Tabular Analysis Services 1400-level compatibility model, which caused the changes in the OAuth tokens to not get updated in the data source.
77+
- Fixed a crash in SSMS that may have occurred when using some invalid data source credentials or editing data sources that didn't support Change Data Source migration in Power Query (for example, Oracle) in Analysis Services Tabular 1400-level compatibility models.
78+
79+
80+
### Known issues
