Title: Fixed incorrect check parameter assignment after tabula rasa
Component: Checks & agents
Level: 1
Class: Bug fix
Version: 1.6.0i1
The tabula rasa discovery could assign incorrect default parameters to the discovered service.
Generally, if multiple rules provide check parameters, the most specific rule should win.
For ps checks the least specific rule did win. This has been fixed.

Title: check_mk_agent.linux, check_mk_agent.openwrt: specify message digest for encrypted agent output explicitly
Component: Checks & agents
Level: 1
Class: Bug fix
Version: 1.6.0i1
For encrypted agent output the default message digest algorithm of OpenSSL was
used before. Prior to OpenSSL 1.1 the default is MD5 which is what the Check_MK
server is expecting as well. Starting from OpenSSL 1.1. the default message
digest algorithm changed to SHA-256 which leads to problems in the
communication between hosts with a new OpenSSL version and the Check_MK server.
Now the message digest algorithm is specified explicitly as MD5 to circumvent
any ambiguity.

Title: Availability: UNMONITORED timeperiods were incorrectly used in computation results in certain scenarios
Component: Multisite
Level: 1
Class: Bug fix
Version: 1.6.0i1
When honoring host and service periods, UNMONITORED timeperiods outside of a service period were will still used in the computation.

Title: Availability: Fixed error in duration computation when merging identical states
Component: Checks & agents
Level: 1
Class: Bug fix
Version: 1.6.0i1
This error appears when the availability timeline is not fully connect, e.g. if it is split
by a service period. The computation error itself seems no big issue, since this incorrect
computed value wasn't evaluated, anyway.

Title: Service levels in event console rules can now have a precedence
Component: Event Console
Level: 1
Class: New feature
Version: 1.6.0i1
Event console rules specify a service level, but it was a bit unclear what
that actually means. Previously it was just a default value to use when the
incoming message did not carry a service level itself. If it carried one
(including '0'), this part of the rule did not have any effect.
This behavior was a bit confusing and did not cover all use cases, so you
can now specify what should happen when the incoming message already has a
service level: Keep it (old behavior, the default) or overwrite it
unconditionally with the configured service level.

Title: Rewrite event text in cancel events, too
Component: Event Console
Level: 1
Class: Bug fix
Version: 1.6.0i1
Previously, only non-cancelling events had their text rewritten. This has
been fixed.

Title: htpasswd command is now available in all sites
Component: Site Management
Level: 1
Class: Bug fix
Version: 1.6.0i1
The "omd create" success message tells users about using the htpasswd
command to change the password of the default GUI user. On SLES platforms
the command is available under the name "htpasswd2". We provide a symlink
to the platform specific name to make the command available for all site
users now.
