Title: Windows agent service can be set in mode delayed auto start
Component: Checks & agents
Level: 1
Class: New feature
Version: 1.7.0i1
Any Windows service can be marked as <tt>Automatic (Delayed Start)</tt>.
This mode means short wait for other Windows services marked as <tt>Automatic</tt>.
The delayed mode may help to have network services ready when the service starts,
for example.
With this release Checkmk Windows Agent supports this mode.
<tt>Automatic (Delayed Start)</tt> mode may be enabled using either config
file or WATO.

the services of affected hosts for this to come into effect and potentially
adjust any corresponding rules.

Title: Cisco CPU: Fixed discovery of cisco_cpu and cisco_cpu_multiitem (updates werk #10778)
Component: Checks & agents
Level: 1
Class: Bug fix
Version: 1.7.0i1
The Cisco CPU checks discovery ordering from Werk 7458 is revisited.
There are four Cisco CPU checks: cisco_cpu, cisco_cpu_multiitem, cisco_nexus_cpu, cisco_oldcpu.
We discover the Cisco CPU utilization services in the following order:
- if it's a Nexus device ("NX-OS" in SysDescr and OID ".1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.305.1.1.1.0" is set)
the cisco_nexus_cpu check is used
- if the device is not a Nexus device and contains the SNMP table
".1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.109.1.1.1.1.2.*" and NOT the deprecated OID
"1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.109.1.1.1.1.5.1" (cpmCPUTotal5min)
then cisco_cpu_multiitem is used.
- if the device either the OID ".1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.109.1.1.1.1.8.1" or ".1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.109.1.1.1.1.5.1"
then cisco_cpu. This acts now as a fallback and is not strict about verifying
device not belonging to cisco nexus family. This as a relaxed condition to werk 5748.
- if .1.3.6.1.4.1.9.2.1.57.0 exists then cisco_oldcpu is used
There may be Cisco hosts which have discovered the 'wrong' check type. After a re-discovery the
CPU check type may change.

Title: mk_logwatch: Fixed state file name if REMOTE_HOST variable contains extended IPv4 address
Component: Checks & agents
Level: 1
Class: Bug fix
Version: 1.7.0i1
In the logwatch.cfg a cluster configuration may be of the form
C:+
CLUSTER cluster-name
1.2.3.4
5.6.7.8
C:-
The REMOTE_HOST variable may begin with "::ffff:HERE.COMES.IPv4.ADDRESS".
In order to make this setup work correctly the mk_logwatch state file
must be named as "/PATH/TO/logwatch.state.cluster-name".
This has been fixed.
