Checkmk Werk 15551: downtime: make the show downtimes endpoint more explicit

by Wontek Hong

ID: 15551 Title: downtime: make the show downtimes endpoint more explicit Component: REST API Level: 1 Class: Bug fix Version: 2.3.0b1 Prior to this werk, it was unclear under what circumstances the endpoint returned service, host or both types of downtimes. In short, specifying the host_name parameter limited the response to only return host downtimes. This werk introduces the downtime_type parameter in order to make it easier to filter the results. This parameter is optional as the same result can be achieved through the query parameter only. Since the endpoint response is now more specific, user scripts must potentially be adjusted accordingly: * when the host_name parameter was previously specified, the user must now specify the downtime_type parameter to "host" in order to receive the same downtimes as before

by Gav

ID: 15436 Title: aux_tags: Deleting an aux tag now respects dependencies Component: REST API Level: 1 Class: Bug fix Version: 2.3.0b1 This werk fixes an issue when deleting an aux tag that has a tag group dependency. Previously, you could do this via the rest-api but now it is not allowed. The response now includes a 409 status code plus an appropriate message informing the client of the problem. Client side scripts should be adjusted accordingly.

Checkmk Werk 15421: Improve agent updater logging

by Andreas Umbreit

ID: 15421 Title: Improve agent updater logging Component: agents Level: 1 Class: Bug fix Version: 2.3.0b1 Previously, the agent updater reported many errors coming from the agent bakery with this unhelpful log output: C+: Unexpected answer from Checkmk server: Missing json data. Maybe we are talking to an agent bakery from before Checkmk 2.0? C-: This happened for all errors that can not be interpreted by the agent bakery in a meaningful way. Starting with this Werk, the agent updater will instead propagate the unknown error, e.g.: C+: Agent Bakery: Unhandled exception: KeyError: 'Signatures' See ~/var/log/web.log on site 'mysite' for details. C-: As a last resort, if the agent updater still receives a response that it can't parse, it will still log <tt>Unexpected answer from Checkmk server: Missing json data.</tt>, but this time without the note about an old agent bakery, as this was not helpful at all. Bonus: The error from the above example is now handled correctly: C+: Agent Bakery: Missing signatures in status response from central bakery. Maybe agents are unsigned? C-:
