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 1066: Implemented Dashboard Designer

by Lars Michelsen

ID: 1066 Title: Implemented Dashboard Designer Component: Multisite Level: 3 Class: New Feature Version: 1.2.5i6 This change implements the long awaited Dashboard Designer. With this feature users can edit existing dashboards, create new ones and provide their dashboards to other users just like it can be done with the views. Another nice feature is the formalized context we introduced for views and dashboards. With this concept it is possible to create a host specific dashboard once and open it for several different hosts. You can create a "Oracle Database dashboard" once which can show you the state of a single database server. The name of the database server (context: hostname) of your choice can be provided when accessing the dashboard to "instanciate" such a dashboard. Dashboards edited by users are saved in <tt>var/check_mk/web/USER/user_dashboards.mk</tt> just like edited views are now saved in <tt>var/check_mk/web/USER/user_views.mk</tt>. The views saved by a user before this release which are stored in <tt>var/check_mk/web/USER/views.mk</tt> will be migrated automatically once the user edits it's first view. From this time the new edited views will be read/written from/to the new file. For details take a look at the <a href="/checkmk_multisite_dashboards.html">dashboard documentation</a>.

Check_MK Werk 1088: included check_mk_agent windows msi installer

by Andreas Boesl

ID: 1088 Title: included check_mk_agent windows msi installer Component: Checks & Agents Level: 2 Class: New Feature Version: 1.2.5i5 The new msi install check_mk_agent.msi package contains the 32 and 64 bit version of the check_mk_agent.exe. Upon install the msi package will determine the os architecture and install the matching agent accordingly. The installed 32/64 Bit Agent is always named check_mk_agent.exe. Note: The msi installer always installs into the 32 bit program files folder. This is by design.

Check_MK Werk 1047: Virtual Host Tree: Allow to use topic as tree level

by Mathias Kettner

ID: 1047 Title: Virtual Host Tree: Allow to use topic as tree level Component: Multisite Level: 2 Class: New Feature Version: 1.2.5i5 The Virtual Host Tree snapin now allows not only to use tag groups but also topics as tree levels. A topic can only be used if: <ul> <li>It contains just Checkbox-tags (tags with only once choicee)</li> <li>It contains at least two entries.</li> </ul> The idea is to make the typical Applications topic usable as a tree level. The tree then shows all the different applications. Note: this usually leads to hosts being contained in several branches of the tree (if they have several applications) and other hosts not being contained at all (if the do not have at least one application).
