Title: Fixed filtering check plugins for the management board and the host itself
Component: Checks & agents
Level: 1
Class: Bug fix
Version: 1.6.0i1
In order to decide which check is used for which data source
we have to filter the found check plugins. This is done via
the check_info key "management_board". There are three values
with the following meanings:
- MGMT_ONLY
These check plugins
- are only used for management board data sources,
- have the prefix 'mgmt_' in their name,
- have the prefix 'Management Interface:' in their service description.
- If there is an equivalent host check plugin then it must be 'HOST_ONLY'.
- HOST_PRECEDENCE
- Default value for all check plugins.
- It does not have to be declared in the check_info.
- Special situation for SNMP management boards:
- If a host is not a SNMP host these checks are used for
the SNMP management boards.
- If a host is a SNMP host these checks are used for
the host itself.
- HOST_ONLY
These check plugins
- are used for 'real' host data sources, not for host management board data sources
- there is an equivalent 'MGMT_ONLY'-management board check plugin.
Migration from 1.4 to 1.5:
in 1.4 TCP hosts with SNMP management boards discovered TCP and
SNMP checks, eg. uptime and snmp_uptime. During checking phase
these checks should be executed
further on.
In versions >= 1.5 there are management board specific check
plugins, eg. mgmt_snmp_uptime.
After a re-discovery Check_MK finds the uptime check plugin for
the TCP host and the mgmt_snmp_uptime check for the SNMP
management board. Moreover Check_MK eliminates 'HOST_ONLT'
checks like snmp_uptime.

Title: Warn during config generation when an unknown timeperiod from a shadow host is encountered.
Component: config
Level: 1
Class: Bug fix
Version: 1.6.0i1
When a shadow host uses a timeperiod which is unknown on the master site, we
issue a warning during config generation time ("cmk -U" etc.) now. We
substitute the timeperiod "24X7" (i.e. "Always") in these cases.

Title: Fixed possible error "You can not override a builtin auxiliary tag" after update
Component: Multisite
Level: 1
Class: Bug fix
Version: 1.6.0i1
During the tag migration from 1.5 or newer a problem could happen that the auxiliary
tags "snmp" and "tcp" were not removed correctly. This happened when the titles of these
auxiliary tags have been changed in the site.
This is a regression since 1.5.0p1 (caused by #6247).
Workaround with 1.5.0p2 or older: Have a look at the
/omd/sites/[SITE]/etc/check_mk/multisite.d/wato/hosttags.mk file. First create
a backup of this file, then look for entries like this:
wato_aux_tags += \
[('snmp', u'monitor via SNMP'), ('tcp', u'monitor via Check_MK Agent')]
Try to remove the line and reload the GUI. The issue should be gone now.

Title: TMPFS config hook is now available again
Component: Site Management
Level: 1
Class: Bug fix
Version: 1.6.0i1
The hook as removed during 1.5 development (#5170). Since it is
useful to disable TMPFS especially when Check_MK sites are used
in container environments.
E.g. when using Docker tmpfs mounts in containers are only possible with
privileged containers or SYS_ADMIN capability. In this situation it is
better to turn off the TMPFS in the site and tell docker to mount a
tmpfs in the sites tmp directory during container creation
(e.g. using docker run --tmpfs /omd/sites/[site]/tmp).

Title: BI: Fixed folding of BI aggregations of the same type
Component: WATO
Level: 1
Class: Bug fix
Version: 1.6.0i1
When having multiple BI aggregations configured that use the same top level rule,
this resulted in strange effects when folding / unfolding the aggregations in the
"Rule tree" column. In some situations the wrong tree was toggled.
