Check_MK Werk 5205: Host rename: Fixed broken renaming when new name uses dots

ID: 5205 Title: Host rename: Fixed broken renaming when new name uses dots Component: Core & setup Level: 1 Class: Bug fix Version: 1.5.0i1 When using the host rename feature of WATO and setting a new name that contains a dot, for example myhost.domain, the rename failed to set a correct new name. Instead of setting the intended name, the name was set to "myhost[.]domain" in different places. The affected files are: <ul> <li>Nagios core: <tt>var/nagios/retention.dat</tt></li> <li>NagVis maps: <tt>etc/nagvis/maps/*.cfg</tt></li> <li>Monitoring history of all supported cores:<ul> <li><tt>var/check_mk/core/history</tt></li> <li><tt>var/check_mk/core/archive/*</tt></li> <li><tt>var/nagios/nagios.log</tt></li> <li><tt>var/nagios/archive/*</tt></li> </ul></li> </ul> In case you did such a rename action, you can stop your site and fix the wrong names in the mentioned files on your own, e.g. by using <tt>sed</tt>.
