This Werk removes these options.

[2.4.0] Checkmk Werk 16242 created: Kill forked processes by mk_oracle under AIX

by Checkmk werks level 1

[//]: # (werk v2) # Kill forked processes by mk_oracle under AIX key | value ---------- | --- date | 2024-03-06T12:43:13+00:00 version | 2.4.0b1 class | fix edition | cre component | checks level | 1 compatible | yes The agent plugin `mk_oracle` creates forked processes, e.g. from `sqlplus`. In order to reliable clean up stale processes, we kill now the whole process chain under AIX which corresponds to the stored `PID`. We introduce this only for `AIX` now as we have customers which are affected under that OS.

[2.4.0] Checkmk Werk 16497 created: agent_aws: Use proxy for connections to 'STS' client

by Checkmk werks level 1

[//]: # (werk v2) # agent_aws: Use proxy for connections to 'STS' client key | value ---------- | --- date | 2024-03-07T09:45:40+00:00 version | 2.4.0b1 class | fix edition | cre component | checks level | 1 compatible | yes Previously, if configured, proxy was used to connect to all clients except for the 'STS' client. This led to a crash in the agent if 'STS' client was only accessible via proxy. Now, the configured proxy will be used for the 'STS' client as well.

[2.2.0] Checkmk Werk 16404 created: omd cp: Fix etc/ssl/agents/legacy_ca.pem Points to Source of Copy

by Checkmk werks level 1

Title: omd cp: Fix etc/ssl/agents/legacy_ca.pem Points to Source of Copy Class: fix Compatible: compat Component: omd Date: 1707904094 Edition: cre Level: 1 Version: 2.2.0p24 Since Checkmk 2.2.0 there is a agent CA located in <code>etc/ssl/agents/</code>. This CA is different from the site CA. In particular, if updating from 2.1.0 to 2.2.0, Checkmk will create a symlink <code>etc/ssl/agents/legacy_ca.pem</code>, which points to <code>etc/ssl/ca.pem</code>. After performing an <code>omd cp</code>. This symlink would still point to the site, which was the source of the copy. The symlink is now relative. If the site was created with version 2.2.0 or above no symlink is needed.

[2.4.0] Checkmk Werk 16589 deleted: Monitor Redfish compatible management boards / BMCs via optional MKP

by Checkmk werks level 1

Werk 16589 was deleted. The following Werk is no longer relevant. [//]: # (werk v2) # Monitor Redfish compatible management boards / BMCs via optional MKP key | value ---------- | --- date | 2024-03-06T16:44:06+00:00 version | 2.4.0b1 class | feature edition | cre component | checks level | 1 compatible | yes You can now monitor _Redfish_ compatible management boards / BMCs with Checkmk. To do so, please enable the natively shipped MKP redfish in _Setup --> Extension packages_ (in commercial editions of Checkmk) or via the command line tool `mkp` (in Checkmk Raw). This will enable a new datasource program under _Setup --> Other integrations --> Redfish Compatible Management Controller_. This is an experimental integration created by the Checkmk community (Andreas Döhler from Bechtle), which has already been tested in many environments. However, due to the diverse nature of server hardware, we plan to integrate it entirely for Checkmk 2.4.0, once we have gathered further feedback.

[2.4.0] Checkmk Werk 16408 created: omd update: Allow Aborting Before "Completed verifying site configuration."

by Checkmk werks level 1

[//]: # (werk v2) # omd update: Allow Aborting Before "Completed verifying site configuration." key | value ---------- | --- date | 2024-03-07T13:47:39+00:00 version | 2.4.0b1 class | fix edition | cre component | omd level | 2 compatible | yes Sites may have configuration, MKPs and other local files, which are incompatible with the version targeted by `omd update`. If such a problem occurs, then aborting the update may be necessary. In earlier versions, users were advised to perform a downgrade, which was not user-friendly and had several pitfalls. Downgrading is not supported as it has many potential downsides. With this Werk, `omd update` is better able to deal with these situations. `omd update` will show the message ``` Completed verifying site configuration. Your site now has version {target version}. ``` If the update is aborted before this message is shown, then the site is restored to it's previous state. This includes selecting the `abort` option, unexpected internal errors, or aborting the update using CTRL-C.

[2.4.0] Checkmk Werk 16406 created: cmk-update-config: Don't Prompt User if Using Conflict Mode "install" or "keepold"

by Checkmk werks level 1

[//]: # (werk v2) # cmk-update-config: Don't Prompt User if Using Conflict Mode "install" or "keepold" key | value ---------- | --- date | 2024-03-07T13:04:36+00:00 version | 2.4.0b1 class | fix edition | cre component | omd level | 2 compatible | yes While upgrading with `cmk-update-config`, the user can be prompted with questions about the next update steps. This questioning can be disabled by using one of the conflict options `install`, `keepold` or `abort`. Due to a regression in the 2.3.0b1 the options `install` and `keepold` do not supress these questions. In particular, if there is a problem while `Verifying the Checkmk configuration...`, then the update of Checkmk on Checkmk appliances will exit with a traceback. Upgrading to the 2.3.0b1 is thus only possible here, if all problems are fixed beforehand.

[2.4.0] Checkmk Werk 16407 created: omd update: Don't Delete "config.pb" During Pre-Update

by Checkmk werks level 1

[//]: # (werk v2) # omd update: Don't Delete "config.pb" During Pre-Update key | value ---------- | --- date | 2024-03-07T13:27:55+00:00 version | 2.4.0b1 class | fix edition | cee component | omd level | 1 compatible | yes The `omd update` command has the capability to undo the changes it has done up until `Verifying Checkmk configuration...`. However, if any change after `Verifying Checkmk configuration...` is persisted. Due to a regression caused by Werk #15725, the file `config.pb` is deleted during this verification. If the update aborts during the verification, then users will see the following error: ``` Starting cmc...Failed (Config /omd/sites/prod_dmz/var/check_mk/core/config.pb missing, run "cmk -U" and try again) ``` With this Werk, `config.pb` will be deleting only while `Updating Checkmk configuration...`.
