Check_MK Werk 8092: Bake generic and vanilla agent

ID: 8092 Title: Bake generic and vanilla agent Component: agents Level: 2 Class: New feature Version: 1.2.6b1 The agent bakery used to always create a so called <i>Generic agent</i>. That was an agent with a default configuration. Now the bakery per default creates two - possible identical - agents: The <i>Vanilla</i>-agent is what had been the generic agent. It is an agent without any plugins and with the default configuration. The <i>Generic</i> agent is an agent with all rulesets being applied that do not have any positive restrictions. It is the agent for a generic host, i.e. a host that has no tags and no name. All rules that do not require certain tags to be <i>set</i> or do require the host to have a certain name are being used. This allows you to create a proper agent without creating any host at the first place.
