Check_MK Werk 3728: Automatically creating automation user for Check_MK internal use with WATO default config

by Lars Michelsen

ID: 3728 Title: Automatically creating automation user for Check_MK internal use with WATO default config Component: WATO Level: 1 Class: New Feature Version: 1.4.0i1 We are adding now a default automation user named <i>cmkautomation</i> to Check_MK with the WATO default configuration. This user will currently only be added to new sites, but may be added to existing sites in future, too. The user has the administrative role to be able to access all hosts and do all actions. The authentication secret is randomly created for each site. In distributed setups the authentication secret will be synchronized from the central site. The idea of this user is, that components of Check_MK can automatically authenticate with the Web GUI using an always existing user. This is currently not used, but may be used for the internal cron job, fetching of graphs and performing checks against the GUI. If you don't like this user, you are free to disable or delete it. But this may lead to issues in future when we start using the user for internal things.

Check_MK Werk 3726: Web API: Fixed default output format - using JSON as intended

by Lars Michelsen

ID: 3726 Title: Web API: Fixed default output format - using JSON as intended Component: WATO Level: 2 Class: Bug Fix Version: 1.4.0i1 The WATO Web API was using Python as default output format since version 1.2.8b8 and commit 36142e6d, which was not intended. The Web API is able to output JSON and Python formated data, which can be toggled using the variable <tt>output_format=json</tt> or <tt>output_format=python</tt>. The default has now been changed back to be JSON. In case you created scripts against this API since 1.2.8b8, did not use a JSON parser to load the data and used something like <tt>eval()</tt> in Python instead, you will have to change your scripts. You can either add the variable <tt>output_format=python</tt> or replace your <tt>eval()</tt> with <tt>json.loads()</tt> in Python.

Check_MK Werk 3725: mssql_instance: Changed MSSQL monitoring to report connection issues with only one service

by Lars Michelsen

ID: 3725 Title: mssql_instance: Changed MSSQL monitoring to report connection issues with only one service Component: Checks & Agents Level: 1 Class: New Feature Version: 1.4.0i1 The MSSQL monitoring has been reworked to have one single service per database instance that reports connection issues like a stopped database. This is done by the <tt>mssql_instance</tt> check. All other MSSQL checks have been reworked to become <i>stale</i> in case there is a connection issue and no data is present. As a result you will only receive one notification and see only the relevant issue in the GUI in case an instance goes down. To make this work you will have to update the <tt>mssql.vbs</tt> agent plugin on all your database servers.

Check_MK Werk 3736: New option for discontinuing counting on open event after configured time

by Mathias Kettner

ID: 3736 Title: New option for discontinuing counting on open event after configured time Component: Event Console Level: 1 Class: New Feature Version: 1.4.0i1 In the {{Counting}} section of a rule the Event Console has now a new option {{Discontinue counting after time as elapsed}}. Normally new messages matching an existing open event that is configured for counting will simply increase the counter and not open a new event. When you activate the new option you can limit this phase to a certain duration, e.g. to 10 minutes. Any messages arriving 10 minutes after the first matching message will then open a new event instead of just increasing the counter of the existing one.
