Check_MK Werk 0973: Renaming of hosts via WATO

by Mathias Kettner

ID: 0973 Title: Renaming of hosts via WATO Component: WATO Level: 2 Class: New Feature Version: 1.2.5i3 WATO has now a new function Rename Host. You will find a button with that name in the Properties of a host. It allows a renaming of an existing host. Before you can use that feature you need to have all changes activated, so nothing is pending. Renaming a host is a complex precedure that will not only rename the host in WATO, but also in: <ul> <li>all rules from Host & Service Parameters</li> <li>cluster's node definitions</li> <li>a host's parent definitions</li> <li>Business Intelligence rules</li> <li>notification rules (both rule based and flexible notifications)</li> <li>internal Check_MK data like caches and performance counters</li> <li>auto-disovered services of the host</li> <li>logfile information of logwatch plugin</li> <li>stored SNMP walks</li> <li>RR databases with performance data</li> <li>RRD updates in journal of RRD Cache</li> <li>spool files of PNP4Nagios</li> <li>NagVis maps</li> <li>monitoring history entries (events and availability)</li> <li>the current monitoring state (including ackowledgements and downtimes)</li> </ul> Please note that renaming of a host involves a temporary stop of the monitoring core. This is neccessary in order to avoid situation where the old and the new name of a host is being used at the same time.

Check_MK Werk 1479: liveproxyd: new function for collecting remote inventory data

by Mathias Kettner

ID: 1479 Title: liveproxyd: new function for collecting remote inventory data Component: HW/SW-Inventory Level: 2 Class: New Feature Version: 1.2.5i7 The Livestatus Proxy Daemon has now a new function for collecting HW/SW-Data from remote sites. This needs up-to-date versions of Nagios or CMC on these sites, otherwise the proxy daemon will fail to consider these sites as up! So if you update the liveproxd you also need to update your remote sites! Note: The new feature only works in OMD based installations. After updating all sites to the new version, HW/SW-Inventory data collected on remote sites that are connected via liveproxyd will automatically be transferred to the central site.

Check_MK Werk 1429: Disabled snmp checktypes are now sorted out before Check_MK contacts the snmp host

by Andreas Boesl

ID: 1429 Title: Disabled snmp checktypes are now sorted out before Check_MK contacts the snmp host Component: Core & Setup Level: 2 Class: Bug Fix Version: 1.2.5i6 Behaviour in the previous version: If a snmp host should be inventorized it was checked with the full palette of all available snmp inventory functions. The filtering of unwanted checktypes was done afterwards. This caused needless snmp queries towards the snmp host. The filtering of unwanted checktypes is now done before the snmp host is contacted. Note: This only applies to the WATO rule Disabled checktypes respectively the parameters <tt>ignored_checktypes</tt> and <tt>ignored_checks</tt>, but not to Disabled services. The latter one matches to service descriptions which are the result of a successful inventory.
