Title: Removed export of WATO folder permissions to NagVis
Component: WATO
Level: 1
Class: Bug fix
Version: 1.5.0i1
In previous versions it was possible to export the WATO folder
permissions of each user to NagVis. This was only used for maps
that are named exactly like the WATO folder name. If you don't
have such NagVis maps you are not affected by this change.
This feature has never been documented officially,
It was disabled by default and could be enabled with the global
setting "Export WATO folder permissions".
When having a large amount of users (1000+) and/or a bigger folder
hierarchy while having the global setting enabled this lead to
a huge performance impact when editing several things in WATO
(users, roles, groups, ...) and during activation of changes.
In case you really used this feature, you now need to configure
the permissions manually e.g. by defining contact groups and
giving them permissions on the NagVis maps (via WATO).

Title: HTML mail notification: Added choices 'Automatic HTTP/s' to URL prefix option
Component: Notifications
Level: 1
Class: New feature
Version: 1.5.0i1
URL prefixes are used for hyperlinks to Check_MK GUI so that
the recipient of the email can directly visit the host or
service in question in Check_MK.
These two new choices specify the URL prefix automatically.
If you're using more than one site this may be helpful in
order to avoid configuration of separate rules for each site.

was shown in notification emails.

Title: Livestatus proxy: Connection parameters can now be configured globally
Component: Livestatus Proxy
Level: 1
Class: New feature
Version: 1.5.0i1
The connection parameters of the Livestatus Proxy can now be configured
globally to specify a default set of parameters for all sites. Each site
can now either be configured to use the global defaults or set it's own
parameters.
For most environments it is sufficient to configure the global defaults
and make all sites use the defaults.
Using the global defaults makes it a lot easier to maintain the settings
since you don't need to configure the settings for each site individually
anymore.

Title: Datasource programs: Prevent zombie processes in case of timeouts
Component: Core & setup
Level: 1
Class: Bug fix
Version: 1.5.0i1
When using datasource programs (like e.g. special agents or SSH command line calls)
to get agent data from hosts it may happen that these programs remain open as
zombie processes. Check_MK has been extended to deal with this situation and clean
up these processes.
Details: When the program execution takes too long Check_MK sends a SIGTERM to the
process group of the executed program. After sending the signal Check_MK is now
waiting for the process to finish.

Title: Add error message to report in case some sites are not reachable
Component: Reporting & Availability
Level: 1
Class: New feature
Version: 1.5.0i1
When you create a report in a distributed environment with multiple sites
and not all of the sites are reachable when the report is being created
then there was simply missing data without any further notice.
No at the end of the report there is added an error message if there
was a problem with at least one site. That way the reader knows that
the data might be incomplete.

Title: brocade_fcport: Fixed wrong speed information
Component: Checks & agents
Level: 1
Class: Bug fix
Version: 1.5.0i1
Brocade specific SNMP table
.1.3.6.1.4.1.1588.2.1.1.1.6.2.1
does not provide speed information for the interfaces.
Thus this check plugins had to fetch another SNMP table
.1.3.6.1.2.1.31.1.1.1.15
from IF-MIB.
Unfortunately these tables are not directly connected by index
and the assumed speed information could be wrong for some
devices.
http://community.brocade.com/t5/Fibre-Channel-SAN/SNMP-FC-port-speed/td-p/6…
says that "1073741824" from if-table correlates with index 1 from
brocade-if-table.
