Title: Exclusion patterns for grouping of filesystems
Component: Checks & agents
Level: 1
Class: New feature
Version: 1.7.0i1
The rule "Filesystem grouping patterns" allows for arranging filesystems
discovered for example by the check <tt>df<\tt> into groups. Up to now, the
rule only allowed for specifying patterns for including a filesystem in a
group. With this werk, the user can also specify exclusion patterns wich
prevent filesystems from becoming a member of a group.

Title: Grouping of NetApp Volumes
Component: Checks & agents
Level: 1
Class: New feature
Version: 1.7.0i1
NetApp volumes collected by the NetApp special agent, which are monitored
by the check <tt>netapp_api_volumes<\tt>, can now be grouped using the rule
"Filesystem grouping patterns". This allows for combining multiple volumes into
a single service. Services corresponding to grouped volumes deliver the same
performance data as individual volumes and are also configurable via the rule
"NetApp Volumes".
This werk is incompatible in the sense that it can result in unwanted grouping
of NetApp volumes. This will happen if user-defined rules for the grouping of
filesystems match services monitoring NetApp volumes. In this case, users have
to refine the corresponding rules.

Title: Improved speed of loading of rows shown in table
Component: Multisite
Level: 1
Class: Bug fix
Version: 1.7.0i1
Prevously, all rows of a view in wato where rendered, even there was a limit set (default: 100). From now on, only the rows within the limit are shown. This should be a performance improvement, e.g. in folders with a lot of hosts.

Title: cisco_prime_wifi_connections: New check plugin which monitors the connections of Cisco Prime wireless access points
Component: Checks & agents
Level: 1
Class: New feature
Version: 1.7.0i1
This check returns OK when the total number of client connections does not fall
below configurable values. It shows the sum of connections for each individual
connection type.
The needed cisco_prime_wifi_connections sections are generated by
agent_cisco_prime which has to be configured in order to run.

Title: Monitor Postgres DBs on Windows and Linux
Component: Checks & agents
Level: 1
Class: New feature
Version: 1.7.0i1
This werk enables the monitoring of Posgres DBs under Linux as well as under Windows.
The previously existing agent plugin "mk_postgres" (written in bash), was therefore ported to Python 3.8.
The WATO rule "PostgreSQL database and sessions" configures the agent plugin for the bakery. The bakery will then bake plugins for Linux and Windows as well as the respective .cfg files.
In order to be able to use it under Linux, a Python 3.8 environment must be installed.
In order to be able to use it under Windows, the user needs to deploy the Windows Agent from checkmk v1.7 as the plugin is expecting a well-defined Python 3.8 environment.

Title: Removed option to configure 'customer' in default_user_profile
Component: Multisite
Level: 1
Class: Bug fix
Version: 1.7.0i1
Prevously, you could configure the 'customer' entry for the default user
profile in global or site specific configuration of a site. This option was
removed because the standard user profile should always have the customer of
the site in question.
If you have used the rule "Default user profile" in global settings or site
specific global settings before, please update the configuration files as
follows:
<ul>
<li>If you just configured an explicit customer before, please use "reset to
default" once</li>
<li>If you have used one of the other configuration options like "User role",
please save the rule again</li>
</ul>

Component: Checks & agents

The MK_VARDIR pointed to "/var/lib/check_mk" and was changed to
"/var/lib/check_mk_agent".
Please update the plugin to the new version and review and remove the possibly
created folder "/var/lib/check_mk".

Title: Increased size of field for syslog application tag in new rule
Component: Event Console
Level: 1
Class: Bug fix
Version: 1.7.0i1
Previously the input field for matching a syslog application tag had a
standard size which lead to scrolling if the content has been very long. Now
the input field is as long as for the option "Text to match".
