Checkmk Werk 10872: agent_vsphere: Removed ESX 4.1 compatibility mode

by Lars Michelsen

ID: 10872 Title: agent_vsphere: Removed ESX 4.1 compatibility mode Component: Checks & agents Level: 2 Class: Bug fix Version: 1.7.0i1 The ESX 4.1 compatibility mode of the ESX vSphere special agent has been removed. This separate implementation, which was based on the pysphere python API, was outdated, much slower and missed several features of the current ESX vSphere special agent. In case you still need this, you may have to setup a separate site which uses the old special agent to collect the needed information.

by Tom Baerwinkel

ID: 10750 Title: Reduce long waiting times for some users when loading sites Component: Multisite Level: 1 Class: Bug fix Version: 1.7.0i1 If users are only allowed to see folders for which they have permissions i.e. if the Global Setting "Hide folders without read permissions" is activated, some sites like e.g. the notifications of a user could cause long waiting times. The problem occured especially when users are only allowed to see the lowest folder level. In some rare cases users could even run into a GUI timeout.

Checkmk Werk 10775: Fix netapp_api_fcp pending status for inactive ports

by Óscar Nájera

ID: 10775 Title: Fix netapp_api_fcp pending status for inactive ports Component: Checks & agents Level: 1 Class: Bug fix Version: 1.7.0i1 Inactive ports have no increasing number of operations and thus latency can't be calculated according to NetApp's Performance Management Design Guide as it depends on the increase in number of operations. Now this check does not deliver information nor perfdata about latency when the port is inactive.

Checkmk Werk 10909: New notification plugin for Cisco Webex Teams

by Joerg Herbel

ID: 10909 Title: New notification plugin for Cisco Webex Teams Component: Notifications Level: 1 Class: New feature Version: 1.7.0i1 This werk enables Check_MK to send notifications about changes in the states of hosts and services to Cisco Webex Teams (both spaces and teams). First, you need to setup a webhook to your team or space, see <a href="https://apphub.webex.com/teams/applications/incoming-webhooks-cisco-systems" target="_blank">here</a>, which will allow Check_MK to post messages. Next, in Check_MK, under "WATO - Notifications", create a new notification rule. Select "Cisco Webex Teams" as the notification method. Copy the URL of your webhook into the Webhook-URL field. Optionally, if you want sent messages to include hyperlinks to Check_MK, enable the field "URL prefix for links to Check_MK".

Checkmk Werk 10868: Tags: Custom "Agent type" tag group cleanup is now easier

by Lars Michelsen

ID: 10868 Title: Tags: Custom "Agent type" tag group cleanup is now easier Component: WATO Level: 2 Class: Bug fix Version: 1.7.0i1 Werk #5535 introduced with Checkmk moved the "Agent type" tag group from a tag group that could be customized to a builtin tag group. In case you have modified it in any way, the tag group could not be migrated manually. In this situation the new builtin tag choices have been added to the tag group and the titles of the previously existing tag choices have been prefixed with "Legacy: ". To perform the cleanup now you have to perform the following steps: <ul> <li>Remove all tag choices except <tt>cmk-agent</tt>, <tt>all-agents</tt>, <tt>special-agents</tt> and <tt>no-agent</tt>.</li> <li>Then you can try to delete the tag group.</li> </ul> If you have prepared the tag group as mentioned in the first step, the second step should result in a message "Cleaned up user tag group to builtin". The tag group is visible as "(builtin)" tag group.

Checkmk Werk 10908: snmp_uptime: Fix crash for some Fortigate devices

by Joerg Herbel

ID: 10908 Title: snmp_uptime: Fix crash for some Fortigate devices Component: Checks & agents Level: 1 Class: Bug fix Version: 1.7.0i1 Users experienced crashes of uptime checks with some Fortigate devices. This is because the data delivered by these devices does not contain any timestamps. As a solution, the uptime check will not be discovered any more if the delivered data cannot be interpreted as a timestamp. To apply this fix, users have to re-discover the services of the corresponding hosts.
