Title: Fix name conflict between builtin snmp tag group and aux tag snmp
Component: Multisite
Level: 1
Class: Bug fix
Version: 1.6.0i1
The bultin tag group "snmp" for configuring the SNMP datasource of a host
and the related auxiliary tag "snmp" used the same ID. This resulted in
a name conflict between both which could cause problems e.g. in the rule
editor when using the auxiliary tag as condition.
The tag group has now been renamed to "snmp_ds" and the auxiliary tag ID
stays "snmp".

Title: Cisco CPU checks: Cleaned up SNMP scan functions
Component: Checks & agents
Level: 1
Class: Bug fix
Version: 1.6.0i1
There are four Cisco CPU checks: cisco_cpu, cisco_cpu_multiitem, cisco_nexus_cpu, cisco_oldcpu.
We discover the Cisco CPU utilization services in the following order:
- if it's a Nexus device the cisco_nexus_cpu check is used
- if the device contains the SNMP table .1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.109.1.1.1.1.8.* then
cisco_cpu_multiitem is used
- if the device has the OID .1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.109.1.1.1.1.5.1 then cisco_cpu is used
- if .1.3.6.1.4.1.9.2.1.57.0 exists then cisco_oldcpu is used
After firmware updates there may be deprecated OIDs like
.1.3.6.1.4.1.9.2.1.57.0 or .1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.109.1.1.1.1.5.1.
In such cases you have to re-discover the related hosts.
There also may Cisco hosts which have discovered the 'wrong' check type.
After a re-discovery the CPU check type may change.

Title: job: Gracefully handle long running cronjobs
Component: Checks & agents
Level: 1
Class: Bug fix
Version: 1.6.0i1
Previously mk_job got confused when a job was started while a job with
the same Identity was still running.
The mk_job script can now handle these cases. The corresponding check plugin
will apply the age levels to the longest runnging job, and additionally
display the stats of the last completed job.
