Release 1.1.0 - the MCH release · assimilation/assimilation-official

Special Note This release cannot make use of older databases.

The workaround is to start the CMA one time with the –cleandb flag, and restart all your nanoprobes. Sorry about that.

This release is named after my Father-in-law - whose 94th birthday was 1 November 2015. Happy Birthday!

Bug Fixes

Installer now locks down the version of Neo4j RPMs it installs. https://trello.com/c/o2KPR0aB
Made the code stop barfing on Neo4j beta release version numbers https://trello.com/c/eTwkkWMI
Ensured that built releases have the right version number everywhere https://trello.com/c/cc8k892c
Changing MAC/IP association no longer makes the CMA sick https://trello.com/c/ySlAkWJC
README.md fixes

Significant performance improvement for accessing Drone (server) nodes in the database. https://trello.com/c/p19w7Jyn
Added a best practice rule to discourage tunnelled ssh passwords.
Verified operation against Neo4j 2.3.0 - and changed installer to favor that release. https://trello.com/c/nHUuTNUT
Register installations via Google forms https://trello.com/c/jGsV4dt4

Not compatible with previous database formats.
Sudoers discovery is disabled for this release - will reappear later on
Documentation has not been fully updated to reflect move to github. No doubt other shortcomings exist as well. Sorry! Please fix and generate a pull request.
No alerting, or interface to existing alerting (hooks to build your own interface are included)
high availability option for the CMA is roll-your-own using Pacemaker or similar
queries could benefit from more indexes for larger installations.
The CMA will suffer performance problems when discovering IP addresses when large numbers of nanoprobes are on a subnet.
no GUI
use with recent versions of Neo4j requires disabling authentication on Neo4j
Best practices alerts currently only come out in syslog - not as events. Sorry!
Our current process only allows us to distribute 64-bit binaries. Feel free to build 32-bit binaries yourself. They still work for Ubuntu, and probably Debian and 7.0 and later versions of CentOS.
The magic installer can't install CMAs onto Fedora.
