Icinga 1.6 is out now for download
<http://sourceforge.net/projects/icinga/>! This release is overflowing
with useability enhancements in both Icinga New Web and Icinga Classic
UI, with an exciting new SLA extension in IDOUtils to boot.
*
*
In the Classic UI and Core we have extended logging capabilities for
easier troubleshooting, added notifications for stalked hosts and
services and improved performance in notification logic. We also are
proud to say we've added the ability to set acknowledgements with expiry
time -- an idea that has come off ourfeedback poll
<http://feedback.icinga.org/>, so keep them coming!
For Icinga Web users, a new, optional SLA extension can be found in the
latest IDOUtils. The module breaks down critical events to distinguish
downtime and acknowledgement periods, taking SLA reporting to a new
level of precision -- accessible from the Icinga Web interface. Even
better, the related expansion of the underlying database model and
IDO2DB logic gives us the foundations we need to move towards
comprehensive SLA reporting direct from the database.
Another new feature to check out is the Tackle cronk. This gives an
overview of all information related to any monitoring object. Specify a
host, and the Tackle cronk will display its related services, host
groups, contacts, custom variables, comments, SLA details and so on. The
Tackle cronk was designed by admins for admins, and is our preliminary
version -- so please add to its development with your feedback.
