Checkmk Werk 10582: fortigate_memory: Wrong interpretation levels other than 'percent used'

by Moritz Kiemer

ID: 10582 Title: fortigate_memory: Wrong interpretation levels other than 'percent used' Component: Checks & agents Level: 1 Class: Bug fix Version: 1.7.0i1 Using the WATO rule "Main memory usage (UNIX / Other Devices)", users could specify levels as absolute values or percent and on used or free memory. Previously only the 'percent used' combination worked correctly. Now 'percent used' and 'percent free' are supported, while absolute values will result in a warning state, as this device does not provide absolute values.

Checkmk Werk 10580: Memory check plugins: Unify service descriptions

by Moritz Kiemer

ID: 10580 Title: Memory check plugins: Unify service descriptions Component: Checks & agents Level: 2 Class: New feature Version: 1.7.0i1 Several Memory check plugins have been unified with respect to their service description, which is now simply "Memory" or "Memory $ITEM$". In order to use these new service descriptions you have to enable them below {Global settings}, {Use new service descriptions}. Renaming of existing services has many implications - including existing rules, performance data and availability history - these renamings are disabled per default for existing installations. Here you can switch to the new descriptions for selected check types. Renaming the services will mean you loose all historic data. If you want to rename the services but keep the recorded metrics, you have to rename the RRD files in <tt>~/var/pnp4nagios/perfdata/$HOST$</tt> or <tt>~/var/check_mk/rrd/$HSOT$</tt> according to the service name change. Affected check plugins are: LI:aix_memory LI:brocade_sys.mem LI:cisco_mem LI:cisco_mem_asa LI:cisco_mem_asa64 LI:db2_mem LI:docker_container_mem LI:esx_vsphere_hostsystem.mem_usage LI:esx_vsphere_hostsystem.mem_usage_cluster LI:fortigate_memory LI:fortigate_memory_base LI:fortigate_node.memory LI:hr_mem LI:huawei_switch_mem LI:innovaphone_mem LI:juniper_mem LI:juniper_screenos_mem LI:juniper_trpz_mem LI:mem.used LI:mem.win LI:netscaler_mem LI:solaris_mem LI:sophos_memory LI:statgrab_mem LI:tplink_mem

Checkmk Werk 10585: mem.used, statgrab_mem, aix_memory, docker_container_mem, solaris_mem, emc_ecs_mem: Unify service output

by Moritz Kiemer

ID: 10585 Title: mem.used, statgrab_mem, aix_memory, docker_container_mem, solaris_mem, emc_ecs_mem: Unify service output Component: Checks & agents Level: 1 Class: New feature Version: 1.7.0i1 The output of these check plugins is now formatted in a clearer way, in line with other memory checks. For instance: Output previously formatted as 54.70 GB used (46.70 GB RAM + 8.00 GB SWAP, this is 89.2% of 61.33 GB RAM + 8.00 GB SWAP) will now read Total (RAM + Swap): 89.19% - 54.70 GB of 61.33 GB RAM, RAM: 76.14% - 46.70 GB of 61.33 GB, Swap: 100% - 8.00 GB of 8.00 GB

by Moritz Kiemer

ID: 10584 Title: docker_container_mem: consider caches and drop zero metrics Component: Checks & agents Level: 1 Class: Bug fix Version: 1.7.0i1 Previously the caches where not taken into account correctly, this has been fixed. Users might observe a slight drop in the used memory metric. In addition, the swap metric is no longer produced, as it allways reported zero.

by Moritz Kiemer

ID: 10586 Title: hr_mem: Wrong handling of levels on free memory Component: Checks & agents Level: 1 Class: Bug fix Version: 1.7.0i1 Using the WATO rule "Main memory usage (UNIX / Other Devices)", users could specify levels as absolute values or percent and on used or free memory. Previously only the levels on 'used' worked correctly. Now levels on free memory are supported as well.

by Jonas Kluger

ID: 10633 Title: skype: fixed magnitude of latency value Component: Checks & agents Level: 1 Class: Bug fix Version: 1.7.0i1 The state falsely changed to warning. A missing conversion to the correct magnitude for a value in the Skype Sproc latency check, caused this wrong state change.
