Title: snmp_info: the description is now part of the summary again
Component: Checks & agents
Level: 1
Class: Bug fix
Version: 2.1.0i1
Starting from Checkmk version 2.0 the description was only shown in the service details.
Only the name, location and contact were shown in the service summary.
For many devices the description contains useful information like e.g. the firmware
version. One use case before the 2.0 was e.g to search for the SNMP Info service of
devices and compare the information contained in the description. To achieve the same
result in verion 2.0 until now it was necessary to add the service details to the views.
This werk puts the description in the summary again, along with the location, name, and
contact.

Title: mkbackup: Fix locking problems
Component: Setup
Level: 1
Class: Bug fix
Version: 2.1.0i1
On standard site installations, locks during mkbackup are now site specific.
This results in multiple sites being able to be backed-up simultaneously.
On appliances, a system-wide backup will still lock all sites regarding backup.
Details:
Werk 11868 tried to fix permission issues during mkbackup of different
sites.
However directories under <tt>/var/lock/</tt> are volatile and
therefore the creation and the setting of the rights on the <tt>mkbackup</tt> folder must be performed on every system restart.
Therefore <tt>omd</tt> will now try to ensure that this folder exists
and has the correct permissions.
Furthermore, the backup directory has been moven to
<tt>/run/lock/mkbackup</tt> as this is the standard path for locks
according to FHS.

Title: Adjusting discards to accept Float instead Integer levels
Component: Checks & agents
Level: 1
Class: Bug fix
Version: 2.1.0i1
For some checks based on the interfaces valuespecs, integers did not provide
the necessary granularity to set thresholds. In consequence, this change changes
the levels to float types.

Title: Management boards: cache DNS lookup
Component: Core & setup
Level: 1
Class: Bug fix
Version: 2.1.0i1
If the management board address of a host has been provided
as a name (not an IP address) Checkmks DNS lookup cache has
not been effective, leading to a lot of DNS lookups.
This is fixed now. In the rare case your management board
has a dynamic IP address, you must configure the entire host
to use dynamic lookup using the WATO rule
"Hosts with dynamic DNS lookup".
