+You can also use the `Get-Help` cmdlet to get detailed descriptions of the SDK cmdlets. In order to do this, you need to import the module first, as shown in the previous section. After that, you can run the following command to get the entire list of cmdlets:

+* The `New-DurableRetryOptions` cmdlet is renamed to `New-DurableRetryPolicy` (an alias for the old cmdlet is provided for backward compatibility).
 
 #### Behavioral changes
 
-* Exceptions thrown by activities scheduled with `Wait-DurableTask` (as in the Fan-Out/Fan-In pattern) are no longer silently ignored. Instead, on an exception, the CmdLet propagates that exception to the orchestrator so that it may be handled by user-code.
