Title: Avoid Livestatus connections on pages that do not need them
Component: Multisite
Level: 2
Class: New Feature
Version: 1.2.5i1
In many pages in Multisite and especially WATO Livestatus connections
are not neccessary. In previous versions the connection was built
up anyway. Now this is done only when needed. That cuts down the total
rate of Livestatus connections and also speeds up installations with
many sites.

Title: Better error handling for invalid service regex in rule conditions
Component: WATO
Level: 2
Class: Bug Fix
Version: 1.2.5i1
Previous versions of the rule editor in WATO did not check whether or not
the regular expressions provided for matching services are valid. This
change adds a regular expression validation.

Title: Fix folder visibility in WATO for unpriviledged users
Component: WATO
Level: 2
Class: Bug Fix
Version: 1.2.5i1
In WATO if you are an unpriviledged user you might have write access to some
lower subfolders but not to the upper folders. This is perfectly common,
because that way the monitoring administrator can delegate tasks for certain
classes of hosts to his collegues.
Previously, however, you couldn't navigate to the lower folders without
faking the URL. This has been fixed now. If you are located in a folder
without having permissions to it you won't see any hosts of that folder,
but still you see the subfolders and also can enter these.
Also this fix removes that buttons for actions on a folder if you do
not have write permissions to it.

Title: Linux agent: fix detaching of background plugins
Component: Checks & Agents
Level: 2
Class: Bug Fix
Version: 1.2.5i1
The asynchronous execution of background processes in the Linux agent has
been fixed. Before it could have happened that the agent starts background
processes but - however - waits for all of them to finish until finishing
itself. This has now been fixed. All plugins started with run_cached are
now correctly detached from the agent.

Component: Checks & Agents
Level: 2
Class: Bug Fix
Version: 1.2.5i1
Some programs might not be working when stdin is closed. A more portable
approach seems to use /dev/null as stdin.

Component: WATO
Level: 2
Class: New Feature

The WATO "Backup & Restore" feature now allows the user to select what kind of data
is included in the snapshot. In previous versions only the Check_MK configuration
and the local authentication data where included. In the new version logs, performance data and various
other historic data can also be included.
It is also possible to set an optional comment in the created snapshot.
For further information please refer to the official documentation.

Title: blade_bays blade_blades blade_blowers blade_health blade_mediatray blade_powerfan blade_powermod: fix scan function
Component: Checks & Agents
Level: 2
Class: Bug Fix
Version: 1.2.5i1
Due to a previous precision in the scan function API the scan functions of
the blade_* checks where never successful anymore. That way those checks
were not detected on new devices. This has been fixed. Existing checks
were not affected.
