Hi,
I'm currently planning on putting out release 0.1.1 next Tuesday.
There are a huge bunch of changes from version 0.1.
Here are the current release notes:
*version 0.1.1 - the 'possibly trial-worthy' release - 11 Feb 2013*
This is the first in a series of releases intended to culminate in a
truly useful release.
This release is suitable for limited trials in an environment where the
caveats are acceptable.
*Features*
These features are new with release 0.1.1.
- new Neo4j schema
- service monitoring
- automatic (zero-config) service monitoring through templates
- basic fork/exec event notification feature -
/usr/share/assimilation/notification.d
- hooks for more sophisticated event notification
- added Pylint analysis and verification
- added Coverity static analysis
- added root ulimit discovery
- added discovery of locally installed monitoring agents
- integration of all tests under /testify//
/- added a Neo4j OCF resource agent
- added Flask code to support the creation of a JavaScript User Interface
- Added Query objects in support of the Flask code.
- Added the ability for for the Flask code to invoke Query objects and
get results
- significant internal improvements in Neo4j access
- support parsing of MAC addresses - they're now all in XX-YY-ZZ (etc)
format.
- Added transactions for the database and the network
- removed "Monitoring" from the project name (but not from its capabilities)
*B**ug Fixes*
- check to make sure requested discovery scripts are present before
executing them
- much improved tcp service discovery
- fixed a number of 64-bit-only assumptions in the code and tests
- improved compatibility with old versions of Ubuntu
- All graph node creation now checks to see if it already exists -
avoiding accumulating superfluous objects
- lots of other bugs associated with new features ;-)
*Caveats*
- You will have to recreate your Neo4j database from scratch to convert
to this release.
- Object deletion not yet reliable or complete
- No alerting, or interface to alerting (hooks to build your own
interface are included)
- communication is neither authenticated nor private
- heterogeneous system support (POSIX and Windows)
- statistical data collection
- CDP support for switch discovery
- high availability option for the CMA
Time has really gotten away from me. Sorry it's been so long between
releases. I'm planning on something more like once a month for at least
the next few months.
