Title: Discovery check can now automatically add missing services and also activate changes
Component: Core & Setup
Level: 2
Class: New Feature
Version: 1.2.7i3
You can now have the <i>Check_MK Discovery</i> check automatically repair
things by adding missing services or even removing vanished services. This is
activated by using the new rule set <i>Periodic Discovery Check</i> instead
of the previous (now deprecated) global option <i>Enable regular service
discovery checks</i>. In the new rule set you can activate and configure
this feature on a per-host base.
Also the discovery check can now warn about vanished services. The default
is that vanished services will not set the state to WARN, however, and just
display them. So unless you change the configuration the behaviour of the
discovery check has not changed.
<b>Note</b>: Automatically removing vanished services can be dangerous as
broken things like missing file systems or even switch ports that went down
will be removed from the monitoring! Only use in special situations where
this is no problem.

Title: SNMP trap translation can now be configured to put trap description into event text
Component: Event Console
Level: 1
Class: New Feature
Version: 1.2.7i3
The trap translation was only translating keys, values and units of OIDs provided with a trap.
You can now configure the Event Console to append the description of the OIDs (if available
via the MIB) to the event texts.
To make this work you may need to re-upload your MIB files you want to have a translation for.
This translation option can be enabled using the global settings of the Event Console. Please
note that if you have existing rules to machting SNMP traps and you change this option, the
texts of incoming events will change. So you might have to adapt your events text matching
patterns.
