Check_MK Werk 2176: One custom icon or action can be configured per process/service

by Lars Michelsen

ID: 2176 Title: One custom icon or action can be configured per process/service Component: WATO Level: 1 Class: New Feature Version: 1.2.7i1 It is now possible to configure a custom icon or action per process or windows service. This is some sort of shortcut. In case of process inventory, you had to configure two rules: a) a process discovery rule b) a rule to assign an icon to this service With this new feature you can configure the icon to be used for the found process right in the value of a process discovery rule.

Check_MK Werk 2200: New filter for (de-)selecting preliminary notifications to "check-mk-notify"

by Mathias Kettner

ID: 2200 Title: New filter for (de-)selecting preliminary notifications to "check-mk-notify" Component: Multisite Level: 1 Class: New Feature Version: 1.2.7i1 When an alert happens then Check_MK lets the core first create a "preliminary" notification. This is not yet mapped to one or several users but is the starting point for the rule based notifications. But it is already logged into the monitoring log. After sending out the actual notifications a further entry for each target user is being logged. A new filter now allows to select just the final or just the preliminary notifications. It is available in all log and notification views.

Check_MK Werk 2175: Added icon uploader, unified icon selection

by Lars Michelsen

ID: 2175 Title: Added icon uploader, unified icon selection Component: Multisite Level: 2 Class: New Feature Version: 1.2.7i1 Check_MK makes use of icons in views and dashboards, but it is also possible to add a custom icon to hosts or services for e.g. showing up the type of the device in a graphical way. This version also adds the option to register custom icons and actions to host and services. This change unifies the handling of icons used in such places. We implemented an icon selector which is used everywhere were you can select an icon. This icon selector groups the icons together in categories for more comfortable selection. We added an icon upload mechanism which gives you the option to manage your custom icons using WATO. You can find it in the top level navigation of WATO. All icons are now loaded from a fixed location, in OMD environments this is <tt>share/check_mk/web/htdocs/images/icons</tt> for the icons distributed by us and <tt>local/share/check_mk/web/htdocs/images/icons</tt> for your custom icons. Implementation detail: The category of an icon is saved directly in the icon image. It is stored in the PNG comment metadata.

Check_MK Werk 2174: Added action popup to host & service views, supporting custom actions now

by Lars Michelsen

ID: 2174 Title: Added action popup to host & service views, supporting custom actions now Component: Multisite Level: 2 Class: New Feature Version: 1.2.7i1 Each host and service has several icons showing up in the web GUI to either provide options to perform actions or visualizing the state of the object. Now we reworked the whole thing a bit by adding a popup menu which is groups together the actions for an object. This aims to reduce the number of icons shown up in list views. By default the icon column is now showing the popup menu trigger icon which can be left clicked to open the popup menu and the graph icon if a host or service has performance data available. The column is also showing all state related icons. Former versions already allowed users to extend the web GUI with so called in python written icon plugins. This is still possible. But now, we added the option to easily configure basic actions using WATO. The configuration is split into two steps: a) You need to basically configure your custom actions This is done via the option Custom icons and actions which can be found in the Status GUI (Multisite) tab of the Global Settings. First you need to choose an unique identifier for your action. Then you can either configure simple icons providing some kind of information, for example the type of the system, by configuring just an icon and the title. If you like to add a custom action, for example a link to the web interface of one of your devices, you can configure an action URL where you can use some basic macros: <ul> <li>$HOSTNAME$: Contains the name of the host</li> <li>$SERVICEDESC$: Contains the service description (in case this is a service)</li> <li>$HOSTADDRESS$: Contains the network address of the host</li> </ul> b) Assign the actions to your objects After you configured at least one custom action, you can use the rules Custom icons or actions for hosts in status GUI and Custom icons or actions for services in status GUI to assign your custom actions to your hosts and services.
