Check_MK Werk 6934: cmk-update-agent: Remove unnecessary check for python interpreter

by Andreas Umbreit

ID: 6934 Title: cmk-update-agent: Remove unnecessary check for python interpreter Component: agents Level: 1 Class: Bug fix Version: 1.6.0i1 Since Check_MK 1.5, the Agent Updater gets deployed as a binary file to linux systems by default. Hence it is no longer necessary to check for an available python2 interpreter on agent installation unless the Agent Updater gets deployed as a script. This werk adapts the agent's preinstall scripts so that no unnecessary checks are induced anymore.

Check_MK Werk 6945: mk_filestats: Plugin to monitor files (Count, Age, Size)

by Moritz Kiemer

ID: 6945 Title: mk_filestats: Plugin to monitor files (Count, Age, Size) Component: Checks & agents Level: 1 Class: New feature Version: 1.6.0i1 A new plugin is introduced with a functionality similar to fileinfo. It reports count, size and age of sets of files specified using a globbing pattern. However, this plugin is designed with large filesets in mind. It therefore provides different options to reduce the data reported to the Check_MK server and/or to avoid unnecessary stat calls on the client. For more information, please refer to the "--help" option of the plugin and the example configration file in agents/cfg_examples.

Check_MK Werk 6929: Distributed WATO login: Protect against some config failures

by Lars Michelsen

ID: 6929 Title: Distributed WATO login: Protect against some config failures Component: WATO Level: 1 Class: Bug fix Version: 1.6.0i1 When building up a distributed Check_MK with distributed WATO, there are two situations which could end up in problematic situations which are handled now in a better way: <ul> <li>Connecting a central Check_MK Managed Services based site to a CEE or CRE based site resulted in a broken slave site. When trying to login a CME site into a CEE site, an error message now prevents the login.</li> <li>We have added a checkbox to the login dialog to confirm that one really wants to overwrite the configuration of the remote site with the central sites configuration.</li> </ul>

Check_MK Werk 6920: HTTP proxies can now be configured globally

by Lars Michelsen

ID: 6920 Title: HTTP proxies can now be configured globally Component: Core & setup Level: 2 Class: New feature Version: 1.6.0i1 To enable components to connect to external resources in proxied networks more easily it is now possible to configure several HTTP proxies using the global setting "HTTP proxies". Imagine a scenario where your monitoring server is located in your company internal network and you need to make a connection to a external HTTP server in the internet while you can only connect to this server using a proxy server. In the past the most spread option is to set the HTTP(S)_PROXY environment variables for such a call and hope that the program you use for the connection supports these envrionment variables. Now it is possible to configure the proxies using the GUI in a central place and refer to these settings from different parts of your configuration. These proxies will be usable by e.g. special agents, notification scripts and active checks, which need to use a proxy for their work. As example the pushover notification script has been migrated to support the global proxy settings. Note to notification script developers: You have to name the notification proxy element of the Dictionary parameters valuespec "proxy_url" to make it work as expected with globally configured proxies. Note to special agent and active check developers: There is a new function available get_http_proxy(http_proxy). Pass the "http_proxy" value a user configured using the HTTPProxyReference valuespec to this function an you will get back the proxy URL as string or None in case no proxy should be set via command line (see "pydoc cmk_base.check_api.get_http_proxy_for_cmdline" for further information).

Check_MK Werk 6933: Always include xinetd configuration file to .tgz packages

by Andreas Umbreit

ID: 6933 Title: Always include xinetd configuration file to .tgz packages Component: agents Level: 1 Class: Bug fix Version: 1.6.0i1 Due to a bug in the packaging routine within the agent bakery, the Check_MK-Agent xinetd configuration file wouldn't be included into .tgz packages. This error occured when using the plugin "Installation paths for agent files" while having no configured path starting with <code>/etc</code>. The xinetd configuration file under <code>/etc/xinetd.d/</code> will now be included as intended, regardless of the paths configured at the "Installation paths for agent files" ruleset.
