| 7 | # Version 1.5 Released | ||
| 8 | |||
| 9 | *Wednesday, October 2, 2013* | ||
| 10 | |||
| 11 | The Nagios Plugins Development Team is proud to announce version 1.5 of the | ||
| 12 | Nagios Plugins! This release comes with the new `check_dbi` plugin written by | ||
| 13 | Sebastian Harl, and includes lots of enhancements and fixes provided by more | ||
| 14 | than forty contributors. Many thanks to all of you! | ||
| 15 | |||
| 16 | Special kudos go to Sven Nierlein for fixing numerous bugs, reviewing many | ||
| 17 | pull requests, bringing our test suite back into shape, and setting up | ||
| 18 | automated tests on a variety of platforms. This helped us spotting lots of | ||
| 19 | bugs *before* the release. Let me also thank Ton Voon for doing the | ||
| 20 | unenviable work of updating the bundled Perl modules; and our newest team | ||
| 21 | member Jan Wagner for all his help with patch review. | ||
| 22 | |||
| 23 | See below for a list of major changes. Note that the new `check_http` version | ||
| 24 | introduces two minor backwards incompatibilities mentioned at the end of that | ||
| 25 | list, so please be sure to check whether they might affect you. | ||
| 26 | |||
| 27 | You can get the tarball from our [download page][download]. | ||
| 28 | |||
| 29 | ## Enhancements | ||
| 30 | |||
| 31 | * New `check_dbi` plugin for checking an (SQL) database using DBI | ||
| 32 | * Let OpenSSL load its configuration file (see the `OPENSSL_config(3)` man | ||
| 33 | page) | ||
| 34 | * Add performance data to `check_apt` | ||
| 35 | * Add performance data to `check_procs` | ||
| 36 | * Added `-4`/`-6` options to `check_dig` | ||
| 37 | * New `check_oracle` `--connect` option to perform real login | ||
| 38 | * New `check_nagios` `-t` option to override the default timeout | ||
| 39 | * New `check_disk` `-f`/`--freespace-ignore-reserved` option to ignore space | ||
| 40 | reserved for root | ||
| 41 | * New `check_disk` `-N`/`--include-type` option to limit the filesystem types | ||
| 42 | to check | ||
| 43 | * Allow for building the plugins in parallel | ||
| 44 | * Add `--without-{dbi,ldap,radius}` options to `./configure` | ||
| 45 | * Made Verbose output of `check_sensors` compliant | ||
| 46 | * New switch `-E`/`--extended-perfdata` for `check_http` to print additional | ||
| 47 | performance data | ||
| 48 | * New `check_http` `-d` option to specify a string to expect within the | ||
| 49 | response headers | ||
| 50 | * New `check_http` `-J`/`-K` options for client certificate authentication | ||
| 51 | support | ||
| 52 | * Add support for executing queries to `check_pgsql` | ||
| 53 | * Let `check_pgsql` accept a UNIX socket directory as hostname | ||
| 54 | * New `check_pgsql` `-o` option to specify additional connection parameters | ||
| 55 | * New `check_fping` `-S` option to specify the source IP address | ||
| 56 | * New `check_fping` `-I` option to specify the interface to bind to | ||
| 57 | * Let `check_fping` support IPv6 | ||
| 58 | * New `check_procs` `-k` option to ignore kernel threads (on Linux) | ||
| 59 | * Let `check_procs` use `/proc/<PID>/exe` (if available) instead of | ||
| 60 | `getpid(2)`, unless `-T` is specified | ||
| 61 | * Let `check_mysql` support SSL | ||
| 62 | * Let `check_mysql` add perfromance metrics for all checks | ||
| 63 | * New `check_mysql` `-f` option to specify a client options file | ||
| 64 | * New `check_mysql` `-g` option to specify a client options group | ||
| 65 | * New `check_snmp` `--offset` option to allow for adding/substracting an | ||
| 66 | offset value to sensor data | ||
| 67 | * Let `check_snmp` support an arbitrary number of OIDs | ||
| 68 | * Let `check_ide_smart` support NetBSD | ||
| 69 | |||
| 70 | ## Fixes | ||
| 71 | |||
| 72 | * Change the MAIL FROM command generated by `check_smtp` to be RFC compliant | ||
| 73 | * Fix compilation of `check_http` without SSL support | ||
| 74 | * Fix `check_snmp` reversed threshold ranges (backward-compatibility) | ||
| 75 | * Fix `check_snmp` memory violation when using more than 8 OIDs | ||
| 76 | * Fix `check_apt` security regular expression | ||
| 77 | * Fix `check_http` handling extra header (`-k`) containing semicolons | ||
| 78 | * Fix `check_apt` handling unknown exit codes from apt-get | ||
| 79 | * Fix deprecated imports of `check_nmap.py` | ||
| 80 | |||
| 81 | ## Warnings | ||
| 82 | |||
| 83 | * `check_http` behaviour of `-k`/`--header` changed since it does not separate | ||
| 84 | multiple headers by semicolons anymore. Use multiple `-k` switches instead. | ||
| 85 | * `check_http`'s `--proxy_authorization` option is now called | ||
| 86 | `--proxy-authorization` (it was always documented this way) | ||
| 87 | * The [contrib directory][contrib] has been removed. These days, sites such | ||
| 88 | as [Nagios Exchange][nag-exchange] and [Monitoring Exchange][mon-exchange] | ||
| 89 | serve as much better places for publishing plugins not maintained by the | ||
| 90 | Nagios Plugins Development Team. | ||
