Title: Fix different issues with hosts created via Web API using JSON
Component: WATO
Level: 1
Class: Bug fix
Version: 1.7.0i1
When hosts are created using the Web API with data structures in JSON format,
configuring these hosts could lead to problems in different situations.
One example is that configuration rules that are created explicitly for such
a host can not be loaded for editing. One often used feature is creating
"ad hoc" disabled services rules on the service discovery page. These rules
lead to an error message "Unable to read current conditions of this rule. Falling back to default values."
when trying to edit the created rule.
This issue has been fixed. Starting with the 1.6.0p10 the hosts are initially
correctly saved. Existing host and rule configurations will be fixed during
the update to 1.6.0p10.

Title: Dashboard: Fixed "invalid dashlet coordinate" after moving dashlet in Chrome
Component: Multisite
Level: 1
Class: Bug fix
Version: 1.7.0i1
When moving dashlets on a Checkmk dashboard while the page is zoomed to e.g. 75% in chrome,
this lead to "invalid dashlet coordinate" popup error messages.
A workaround was to change the browser zoom level to 100%, then the dashlets could be moved
as usual.

Title: Checkmk RRD helper: fixed exception when creating new rrd files
Component: cmc
Level: 1
Class: Bug fix
Version: 1.7.0i1
The Checkmk RRD helper is used whenever the microcore tries to create a new rrd file.
During this process the RRD helper tries to parse the autochecks file for the host in question.
In some instances, the autochecks file referred to variables defined within checks.
This caused RRD to silently crash without parsing the content of the autochecks file.
In most instances this had no negative effect.
However, the recently introduced labels might be incorrectly computed because of the missing autochecks file content.
WATO configured RRD rules which rely on labels might be affected by this bug (but only when creating new rrd files).

Title: cmk-update-agent: Completely apply proxy settings as configured in agent updater ruleset
Component: agents
Level: 1
Class: Bug fix
Version: 1.7.0i1
At the agent updater ruleset, you can specify how to cope with proxy configurations that
exists on the hosts. By default, all proxy configurations should be ignored completely
by cmk-update-agent(.exe). However, the agent updater does an initial HEAD request to
it's configured Checkmk-server, that did not respect the ruleset's configuration.
With is fixed with this Werk.
If you experience problems emerging from the agent updater erroneously following a
configured proxy and because of this failing to connect to Checkmk-server, you can
try to either deactivate your proxy setup and do a manual agent update to a newly baked
agent, or you can replace the host's cmk-update-agent(.exe) executable with the one from
Checkmk-server, located at ~/share/check_mk/agents/plugins/cmk-update-agent, or
~/share/check_mk/agents/windows/plugins/cmk-update-agent.exe respectively.
