-3.9.1 ???
+3.9.1 8th November 2010
FEATURES:
+ UI updates to page headers (to increase amount of visible area - contributed by Capside) and menus
Performance data updates now run asynchronously, reducing gaps in graphs. You will need to manually create a service check
on the Opsview master using the check_opsview_async_imports plugin with an argument of "perfdatarrd" to monitor the usage of the directory.
See https://docs.opsview.com/doku.php?id=opsview-community:performancedataimports for details of how this works
Performance data in ODW is now summarised on an hourly basis, to allow fast queries of performance data for reporting
- ODW now defaults to on for all new systems
+ ODW now defaults to import for all new systems
Integration with SolarWinds SNMP trap forwarding, so you can forward traps for processing on Opsview master or slaves
+ Performance improvements in post-reload tasks. Now status updates happen concurrently so views are up to date, and the duration is
+ reduced with more efficient queries
+ Performance improvements when querying Events view
ENHANCEMENTS:
- Refreshed page headers, to increase amount of visible area (contributed by Capside). Updated menus
Added nsca_server_address option to override in opsview.conf
Allow freshness for stale settings to still work if no notifications enabled
Allow searching on plugin name in service check list page
Update message about no interfaces, to suggest clicking Query Host to start the scan
- Performance improvements to events view for large number of events
- Parallelising of post-reload tasks, which means the user interface will update with status information sooner following a reload
Graph values are now displayed to a base unit (bytes, seconds) for easier understanding. For example, performance data
with a y-axis of MB and a line value of 1.3K will now be displayed with a y-axis of bytes and a value of 1.3G
Viewports now show if a service is in a downtime state, to allow the user to assess the state of a service easier
Better error message when import_runtime blocks due to upgrade flag (Tony Hunter)
Upgraded Nagios to 3.2.3
- Added port option into SNMP tab on host edit page. New translations required.
- Ensure hostgroup commands page downtime is redirected via Opsview authentication mechanism (OPS-1396)
+ Added port option into SNMP tab on host edit page, for increased flexibility on a host basis
+ Ensure hostgroup commands page downtime is redirected via Opsview web page, so all validation done appropriately (OPS-1396)
The mass acknowledgements page now gives an option for sticky acknowledgements, to reduce the number of notifications for advanced users
The Auto Remove Comment has been taken out as this should always be the case
When acknowledging a host or service from the Nagios CGIs, Sticky is now disabled by default. This is to prevent acknowledgements

When a cluster node recovers, the status information is synchronised from the secondary node to the primary, to ensure that
the status information is consistent
check_snmp_cisco_loadavg now monitors Cisco ASA devices, to simplify configuration of monitoring Cisco devices
- Allow synchronous reloads from REST API
+ Allow synchronous reloads from REST API, so you can have automated restarts of Opsview
Removed Nagios restart messages from Nagios CGI trends view, to reduce clutter in trends graph (contributed by Capside)
Can now enable partial ODW importing (statistics) and enable full ODW importing separately, reducing data storage requirements
Automatically remove trailing spaces in service check names and in host attribute values, to avoid potential issues in Nagios configuration
Added ability to get data from REST API using JSONP
- New helper table in Runtime database, to speed up configdumpend process on large systems
- Added links to Resolve service checks from host edit page and back again
+ Added links to Resolve service checks from host edit page and back again, for easier navigation
Removed AQL notification method from default install
ODW now stores summary statistics of number of hosts/services/serviceresults/perfdata per hour
ODW now automatically cleans up failed imports
- Added feature to RESTAPI for JSONP to return windowname method for cross-site REST
+ Added feature to RESTAPI for JSONP to return windowname method for cross-site REST calls
Add icon to Modules menu for enterprise modules
+ WARNINGS:
+ There are some manual post install tasks required. See
+ http://docs.opsview.com/doku.php?id=opsview-community:upgrading#opsview_391
+ As the old Opsview API did not clone the enable_snmp parameter correctly and since Enable SNMP overrides Use MRTG and Use NMIS,
+ you will need to confirm that this flag is set appropriately for each host. This only affects hosts cloned via the API.

FIXES:
Fixed new creation of SNMP trap rule type service check redirecting to rules page on create/clone
Fixed cloning of SNMP trap rules when cloning a service check
