4 | ENHANCEMENTS | ||
5 | check_mailq now supports auto detection of qmail, postfix, exim and nullmailer with | ||
6 | fallback to sendmail | ||
7 | check_ide_smart now defaults to plugin output, original output appended with -v | ||
8 | Extra-Opts are now enabled by default, see: | ||
9 | https://www.monitoring-plugins.org/doc/extra-opts.html | ||
10 | check_swap now supports a configurable state when there is no swap | ||
11 | check_radius now supports the FreeRADIUS Client library | ||
12 | New check_mysql_query -f option to specify a client options file | ||
13 | New check_mysql_query -g option to specify a client options group | ||
14 | Add performance data to check_mysql_query | ||
15 | New check_file_age -i/--ignore-missing option to return OK on nonexistent files | ||
16 | Make check_ping, check_users, and check_disk work on Windows | ||
17 | |||
18 | FIXES | ||
19 | Don't let e.g. check_http's -C option reset SSL version if e.g. -S 1 -C 5 is specified | ||
20 | Don't have check_http's -N option expect an argument | ||
21 | check_ide_smart could disable offline auto tests but could not re-enable them. | ||
22 | For this reason all SMART command modes have been disabled. | ||
23 | check_dig: fix wrong IPv6 arguments order (Stéphane Bortzmeyer) | ||
24 | check_dig: make sure not to give up too early when a timeout is specified with -t | ||
25 | check_log: don't stumble over log lines that include a "%" character | ||
26 | check_nt: add UPTIME to perfdata | ||
27 | Handle negative values properly with check_snmp | ||
28 | Handle SNMPv3 noAuthNoPriv properly with check_snmp | ||
29 | Fix compilation with GnuTLS | ||
30 | |||
31 | WARNINGS | ||
32 | New default installation prefix: /usr/local instead of /usr/local/nagios | ||
33 | check_procs now ignores its parent process to avoid unexpected results when invoked via certain shells | ||
34 | utils.sh no longer defines ECH | ||
35 | check_ide_smart -q/--quiet and -n/--nagios (Nagios-compatile output) are now deprecated | ||
36 | but accepted for backward-compatibility | ||
37 | check_ide_smart -0/--auto-off, -1/--auto-on and -i/--immediate: options have | ||
38 | been disabled because they were broken | ||
39 | State retention: the NAGIOS_PLUGIN_STATE_DIRECTORY environment variable has been | ||
40 | renamed MP_STATE_PATH. The old variable will continue to work in v1.6.x | ||
41 | Add the UID of the invoking user to the state retention file path. This helps solving | ||
42 | permission issues when different users run the same plugin | ||
43 | check_swap used to allow returning OK on a system without swap when only percent thresholds | ||
44 | were used. This is no longer the case and one must now use -n/--no-swap=<state> | ||
45 | The Perl and Shell plugins now use the PATH specified via ./configure's --trusted-path | ||
46 | option, or "/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin" by default | ||
