Checkmk Werk 12699: Activate Livestatus TCP socket with systemd on recent enough systems

by Mathias Laurin

ID: 12699 Title: Activate Livestatus TCP socket with systemd on recent enough systems Component: Core & setup Level: 1 Class: New feature Version: 2.1.0i1 The Livestatus socket can be configured to be reachable over the network (details can be found under https://docs.checkmk.com/latest/en/livestatus.html#network). This is needed for, e.g., building distributed environments with Checkmk. In previous releases this network connection was managed by a site-specific xinetd instance. Since xinetd is not available on newer Linux distributions, we have added an alternative mode of managing the socket using systemd. All Checkmk sites on Linux distributions with a systemd version newer or equal to version 235 that have the LIVESTATUS_TCP option enabled (see abover for a link to the manual) automatically and seamlessly switch to the new systemd-managed socket after upgrading to Checkmk 2.1. Older Linux distributions keep using xinetd. Users are advised to double-check the systemd configuration under <tt>$OMD_ROOT/etc/mk-livestatus/livestatus.socket</tt> and <tt>$OMD_ROOT/etc/mk-livestatus/livestatus@.service</tt>.

Checkmk Werk 13170: check_dns: added option to use default DNS server

by Ulrich Bschorer

ID: 13170 Title: check_dns: added option to use default DNS server Component: Checks & agents Level: 1 Class: New feature Version: 2.1.0i1 If no DNS server is specified the error message "CRITICAL - Plugin timed out while executing system call" could have been reported. The reason for this error is that the check_dns option "-s" is used with the hostname as DNS server. The host might not be a DNS server and a timeout occurs. The new option "Use default DNS server" will omit the option "-s" for check_dns. In this case the default DNS server of the checkmk server will be used and no timeout occurs any more.

Checkmk Werk 13378: Fix detection of HTTP protocol

by Ronny Bruska

ID: 13378 Title: Fix detection of HTTP protocol Component: Multisite Level: 1 Class: Bug fix Version: 2.1.0i1 The detection of the HTTP protocol, used in "Analyze configuration", "Crash reports" and to determine the shown default setting of "URL prefix for links to Checkmk" for notifications, was broken since 2.0.0. That leaded e.g. to a warning in section "Secure GUI (HTTP)" of "Analyze configuration", even if https was configured.

by Tom Baerwinkel
