Title: Fix labelling of V-Achsis on graphs with very large numbers
Component: Multisite
Level: 1
Class: Bug Fix
Version: 1.4.0i1
If you create an own check that outputs very large metrics then the
labelling of the vertical axis in a graph would try to display numbers
like 1000000000000, with the problem that the prefix 1000... is not
visible.
Number larger than 99999 are now being displayed in exponential
syntax, e.g. 1.0e6 and are thus correctly being displayed.

Title: The Event Console views are now supporting distributed setups
Component: Event Console
Level: 2
Class: New Feature
Version: 1.4.0i1
The Event Console was not really supporting distributed setups in the past. In case you have
a setup of multiple sites you always had to decide whether or not to setup a single, central,
EC or one EC per site and how to handle and configure monitoring and notifications.
The Event Console can now be integrated into distributed setups more easily. The standard
setup should now be a single Event Console per site which receives the events of all
hosts monitoringed with this site.
In case you have a central view site, the Event Console views show up the events of all Event
Console instances configured in the central site. You can manage all the events of the remote
Event Console just like managing hosts and services of the remote site.

Title: Agent sections cached by the agent could cause stale services
Component: Checks & Agents
Level: 1
Class: Bug Fix
Version: 1.4.0i1
There are situations, when the agent is caching sections and the check
interval of a check is configured to a special value, that services will
become stale even when the agent could still send cached information.
For example the ntp section which is cached for 30 seconds, wen using a
check interval of 120 seconds, could become stale after 180 seconds when
the update of the agent cache takes more than 60 seconds. The agent would
then throw away the cache which is currently updated and return no ntp
section which results in a stale service then.
The fix is now, that in such a situation the agent is processing the old,
already cached, section and restarting the cache update immediately
(instead of the last run as it was before).
