Title: cisco_power: discover unique items in one edge case
Component: Checks & agents
Level: 1
Class: Bug fix
Version: 1.7.0i1
For some sensor descriptions the cisco_power check discovered items
that were not unique. One description was e.g. "Sw1, PSA Normal"
which was translated into the item "Sw1". Another sensor that used
the description "Sw1, PSB Normal" was then aliased to "Sw1" as well.
Such items can now be differentiated. The example sensors would now
be mapped to the items "Sw1 PSA {ID}" and "Sw1 PSB {ID}" where {ID}
is the ID of the sensor.
The affected services have to be rediscovered.

Title: Extended Checkmk crash reporting
Component: Multisite
Level: 2
Class: New feature
Version: 1.7.0i1
The crash reporting functionality of Checkmk has been extended. In previous versions
of Checkmk it was possible to report only GUI and check plugin related crashes to the
Checkmk team.
With this change Checkmk is able to collect crashes from all components of Checkmk.
These crashes can be displayed in the central user interface in distributed setups.
You can access the crashes using the view <tt>Views > Other > Crash reports</tt>.
This view shows you a list of all captured crashes. You can open the details of
a crash by clicking on the crash ID and send them to the Checkmk team or download
the crash package.
These crash reports are stored locally in each site below <tt>var/check_mk/crashes</tt>.
There is a cleanup mechanism in place which removes all crashes except the last 20
per component.

Title: Docker container: Fix URL redirects when accessing /
Component: Core & setup
Level: 1
Class: Bug fix
Version: 1.7.0i1
When updating a Checkmk docker container instance from 1.5* to 1.6 the web
interface is not reachable using the top level URL "/" nor the "/cmk/" URL.
This worked only when setting up completely new container instances with 1.6.
With this werk the redirects now work as intended after an update.
