Checkmk Werk 15252: Fixed "processing of perfdata" condition

by Sven Panne

ID: 15252 Title: Fixed "processing of perfdata" condition Component: Core & setup Level: 1 Class: Bug fix Version: 2.2.0i1 The logic for the processing of performance data was broken: It should only be done when the global switch is activated <em>and</em> the processing is enabled for the host/service in question. The condition was incorrectly using an "or" for this, this has been fixed.

Checkmk Werk 14581: AWS: Allow configurable piggyback names

by Solomon Jacobs

ID: 14581 Title: AWS: Allow configurable piggyback names Component: Checks & agents Level: 1 Class: New feature Version: 2.2.0i1 When creating a piggyback host for an EC2 instance, <tt>agent_aws</tt> uses the format C+: {Private IPv4 address}-{region}-{Instance ID} C-: This format guarantees that the piggback name is always unique, even when instances are restarted and could potentially switch their IP address. However, in practice this problem can be neglected and only using the Private IP DNS name as a piggyback name is safe. With this werk, the option <tt>Piggyback names</tt> in the rule <tt>Amazon Web Services (AWS)</tt> allows you to configure how piggyback hosts are named. Note, that if a host changes it's name, then all historical data is lost.

Checkmk Werk 15019: Fix proxmox agent crash with shutdown nodes

by External contributor

ID: 15019 Title: Fix proxmox agent crash with shutdown nodes Component: Checks & agents Level: 1 Class: Bug fix Version: 2.2.0i1 The proxmox agent would fail with a KeyError when a proxmox VE node was shutdown. The error occured because a we do not get information for the timezone of shutdown nodes. The timezone information is used to convert timestamps for backups to utc. When no timezone information is found for a node we use the timezone of the first node we process.

Checkmk Werk 15213: rest_api: time_period exception/active time_ranges default

by Gav

ID: 15213 Title: rest_api: time_period exception/active time_ranges default Component: REST API Level: 1 Class: Bug fix Version: 2.2.0i1 When creating a time_period via the REST-API, the exception time_ranges field is not required, however if it's not provided, it will raise a key error. This werk adds an empty list as a default value, which aligns with the interface functionality of allowing an empty time_range value. The second fix is the same issue but for the active time_ranges field.

Checkmk Werk 15091: check_mk_agent: Add option "--force-inventory" in order to collect the output of the mk_inventory agent plugin

by Simon Jess

ID: 15091 Title: check_mk_agent: Add option "--force-inventory" in order to collect the output of the mk_inventory agent plugin Component: agents Level: 1 Class: New feature Version: 2.2.0i1 Sometimes the full agent output, ie. the output of the agent itself and of all installed agent plugins, of a host is needed for debugging or simulation purposes. Especially collecting the output of the agent plugin {{mk_inventory}} is not very user-friendly because the execution depends on a special flag file. A user has to delete or modified this flag file in order to get the output. In general this intervention is not a good idea because it steps in the Checkmk operations. With the new option "--force-inventory" the output of {{mk_inventory}} is collected and the Checkmk operations are not bothered anymore. Example: check_mk_agent --force-inventory > host.out
