Title: Windows agent crashed while unpacking plugins
Component: Checks & agents
Level: 1
Class: Bug fix
Version: 1.5.0i3
The agent updater and MSI installer call the Windows agent with a
special parameter 'unpack' in order to extract plugins from the
.cap-archive. The agent crashed if it could not write the batch file
'uninstall_plugins.bat' or any of the extracted plugin files.
Now any errors with writing files are logged before interrupting the
unpack process. After successfully unpacking the plugins, the agent
checks recursively that all files in its installation directory are
writable by the agent. The check stops at the first unwritable file
and logs a corresponding error message before exiting.

Title: Hosts can have multiple IP addresses which may be checked by ICMP service
Component: Checks & agents
Level: 1
Class: New feature
Version: 1.5.0i3
In the host properties you can configure extra IPv4 or IPv6 addresses
below 'Address'. Within the rule 'Check hosts with PING (ICMP Echo Request)'
you can choose 'PING all IPv4 addresses', 'PING all IPv6 addresses',
'Ping additional IPv4 addresses' or 'Ping additional IPv6 addresses'
below 'Alternative address to ping'.
Note that the active check ICMP can ping multiple IP addresses which have
to be of the same type. That means if you want to ping
- only IPv4 addresses, use
'PING all IPv4 addresses' or 'Ping additional IPv4 addresses' in the check
configuration.
- only IPv6 addresses, use
'PING all IPv6 addresses' or 'Ping additional IPv6 addresses' in the check
configuration.
- both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses, you have to configure two active checks.

Title: Publish views (and dashboard): Only own contact groups are selectable for users
Component: Multisite
Level: 1
Class: New feature
Version: 1.5.0i3
Views and also dashboards can be published to members of contact groups. Earlier versions
allowed even normal users to select any configured contact group to publish these things to.
We have changed this now for normal monitoring users. They can now only select contact groups
which they are a member of. If you need the old behaviour back, you can enable the permission
"Publish views to foreign contact groups" for them.
Administators have this permission by default and can still publish views/dashboards to the
members of any contact group.
