Title: Do not perform actions on events if overflow limit is active
Component: Event Console
Level: 2
Class: Bug Fix
Version: 1.4.0i4
If the EC blocks a new event because of an active overflow limit
then it now correctly also omit any configured actions (i.e.
a notification) on that event.
Previously actions would be executed anyway - that way undermining
the overflow protection. Furthermore the action "Send notifiction"
would run into an exception because of a missing event ID.

Title: Do not send notifications if host found and currently in downtime
Component: Event Console
Level: 2
Class: New Feature
Version: 1.4.0i4
When you forward notifications from the Event Console to Check_MK then
from now on these are being suppressed if the host can be found in the
active monitoring and is currently in a scheduled downtime.
This is very much what users except and want to happen. Please note that
- however - this is an incompatible change sind now some notifications
will not longer be sent that have been sent previously.

Title: BI: Major Rework of Code. Apache processes now share computated data
Component: BI
Level: 2
Class: New Feature
Version: 1.4.0i3
Previously, each apache process had to compile the all BI aggregation trees by itself.
This generated lots of CPU load during core restart, especially on larger BI configurations.
With this update, an apache process no longer computes the BI trees only for personal usage.
The computation results are now shared between the different processes through cache files.
If you encounter any bugs with this new mechanism you can switch back to the old
implementation via the global settings option <i>Use legacy compilation for BI aggregations (slower)</i>.

Title: Use notification fallback also for hosts not known to the monitoring
Component: Event Console
Level: 2
Class: New Feature
Version: 1.4.0i3
This can happen if you forward notifications from the Event Console. All
contacts that are configured for notifications fallback and also the
global fallback email address will be regarded as contacts in that
case.

Title: mk_oracle.ps1: added Oracle wallet support to Windows plugin
Component: Checks & Agents
Level: 2
Class: New Feature
Version: 1.4.0i3
The plugin for windows could be used with the Oracle wallet. The support is
limitted to all Instances except ASM. This function is only for
administrators who really knows how to use the wallet.
You have to add an entry with the name of the instance. Please check the
connection with SQLPlus before trying to use the plugin.
The plugin use the following connection:
sqlplus /@<ORACLE_SID>
You have to add a credential to the wallet with the ORACLE_SID as name for
the entry:
Example:
mkstore -wrl <Wallet Directory> createCredential „<ORACLE_SID>" <Username> <Password>
The wallet is only used, when username is set to '/'. Password,
hostname and listener-port is ignored, because the tnsnames.ora is used.
Please read the doumentation from Oracle for using the wallet. The
sqlnet.ora must be configured for your environment and the wallet must be
created before adding some entries. You could use TNS_ADMIN in
mk_oracle_cfg.ps1 for pointing to the sqlnet configuration for the plugin.
