So the joke is that it's not a joke ;-)

New Features

  • Recognize and automatically monitor Oracle
  • Added new argmatch() function for returning a portion of a string matching a () regex
  • Added support for IPv4-only systems (whether disabled by either known method)
  • Added support for systems which create pidfile directories for us
  • README updates
  • Updated documentation to reflect use of GitHub instead of Mercurial (hurray!)
  • Updated basic coding standards documentation
  • Added yet-another-RedHat clone to the installer (and made that process easier)

Bug Fixes

  • corrected the URL to the IT Best Practices project in syslog messages

Caveats

  • Not compatible with database formats before 1.1.0
  • No alerting, or interface to existing alerting beyond a sample email script.(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
  • Our current process only allows us to create 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.
