Title: Windows Agent 1.6: Now able to remove the Legacy Agent
Component: Checks & agents
Level: 1
Class: New feature
Version: 1.6.0b5
Now it is possible to remove the Legacy Agent during or after the Windows Agent 1.6 installation.
There are three methods:
1. From the command line please, call 'check_mk_agent.exe remove_legacy' to remove the Legacy Agent
immediately
2. During GUI-based MSI installation, please set the check box 'Remove Legacy Agent' to remove agent
immediately after the installation of the Windows Agent
3. To remove the Legacy Agent through user configuration file, please add to the section global
the line
remove_legacy: yes
In this case the Legacy Agent will be removed after reload of the configuration file.
Important notes: method 3 removes the Legacy Agent only once. This is done to avoid infinite
'remove Legacy Agent' after every agent restart and or configuration reload.
Through the method 1 the Legacy Agent may be removed unconditionally at any moment.

Title: mysql_capacity: Fix problem with warn/crit size
Component: Checks & agents
Level: 1
Class: Bug fix
Version: 1.7.0i1
The crit and warn levels to mysql capacity check values were wrongly multiplied
by 1024. For example, kB was interpreted as MB. This has been fixed.
<b>Note</b>: Users who have set these levels such that the check works before
this fix must now update the unit. The fix does not change the behavior of the
check for users without crit and warn levels.

Title: Fixed address => host name mapping for events
Component: Event Console
Level: 1
Class: Bug fix
Version: 1.7.0i1
When an incoming event console message does not contain a host name, but
only an address (e.g. an SNMP trap), the EC should use the host name
configured for that address. This functionality was broken, so you e.g.
only saw the IP address of a host in notifications triggered by such
messages. This has been fixed.
