|
|
------------------
|
|
Here are all the changes since Nagios 2.x:
|
|
|
|
* Adaptive monitoring:
|
|
- Check timeperiod can now be modified on-the-fly
|
|
|
|
* Notification changes:
|
|
- Added first_notification_delay to host and object definitions to delay first notification
|
|
- Notifications are now sent out when flap detection is disabled on a host/service-specific
|
|
or program-wide basis ($NOTIFICATIONTYPE$ macro = "FLAPPINGDISABLED")
|
|
- Notifications can now be sent out when scheduled downtime starts, ends, and is cancelled. The
|
|
$NOTIFICATIONTYPE$ macro will be set to "DOWNTIMESTART", "DOWNTIMEEND", or "DOWNTIMECANCELLED",
|
|
respectively. In order to receive downtime notifications, specify 's' or 'downtime' in contact, host,
|
|
and/or service notification options.
|
|
|
|
* Object changes:
|
|
- Added ability to use multiple template names (separated by commas) in object definitions
|
|
- Added ability to null out optional character directives in object definitions (using 'null' without quotes)
|
|
- Added hostg/service/contactgroup_members directives to host/service/contactgroup definitions,
|
|
respectively, for allowing including host, service, or contact members from "sub" groups.
|
|
- Added support for custom variables in host, service, and contact definitions
|
|
- Added host_notifications_enabled, service_notifications_enabled, can_submit_commands to contact definitions
|
|
- Added optional display_name directive to host and service definitions
|
|
- Removed serviceextinfo definitions and merged variables with service definitions
|
|
- Removed hostextinfo definitions and merged variables with host definitions
|
|
- Services inherit contactgroups, notification interval, and notification period from associated host if not specified
|
|
- Service escalations inherit contactgroups, notification interval, and escalation period from associated service if not specified
|
|
- Host escalations inherit contactgroups, notification interval, and escalation period from associated host if not specified
|
|
- Host, service, host escalation, and service escalation definitions now support a 'contacts' directive, along with 'contact_groups'
|
|
- Service dependencies with blank dependent host/hostgroup names will create "same host" dependencies
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Performance optimizations:
|
|
- Added ability to precache object config files
|
|
- Added ability to exclude object relationship and circular path
|
|
checks from verification process

|
|
- Added $HOSTDISPLAYNAME$ and $SERVICEDISPLAYNAME$ macros
|
|

|
|
On-demand host/service macros for custom vars are working. Custom vars are also set as environment vars.
|
|
- On-demand service macros can contain and empty host name field. In this case, the name of the current host will be used.
|
|
- $HOSTNOTES$ and $SERVICENOTES$ macros may now contain macros themselves
|
|
|
|
* Flapping changes:
|
|
- Added flap_detection_options directive to host and service definitions to control which
|
|
states (i.e. OK, WARNING, UNKNOWN, and/or CRITICAL) are used in flap detection logic
|
|
- Percent state change and state history are now retained and recorded even when host/service
|
|
flap detection is disabled.
|
|
- Hosts and services are immediately check for flapping when flap detection is enabled program-wide.
|
|
- Hosts/services that are flapping when flap detection is disabled program-wide are now logged
|
|
|
|
* External command changes:
|
|
- Added PROCESS_FILE external command to allow processing of external commands found in
|
|
an external (regular) file. Very useful for passive checks with long output or scripting.
|
|
- Custom commands can now be submitted to Nagios. Custom command names are prefixed with an underscore
|
|
and are not processed internally by the Nagios daemon. They may, however, be processed by NEB modules.
|
|
- External commands are now checked by default. Nagios 2.x and earlier did not check for external commands
|
|
by default.
|
|
|
|
* Status data changes:
|
|
- Contact status information is now saved (although it is not processed by the old CGIs)
|

|
|
|
* Comment changes:

|
- Comments are now stored in the status and retention files
|
|
- Non-persistent acknowledgement comments are now deleted when the acknowledgement is removed (instead of when Nagios restarts)
|
|
|
|
* Host check logic changes:
|
|
- Most host checks are now run asynchronously, in parallel!
|
|
- Scheduled host checks now help improve performance, instead of hinder it (if caching is enabled)
|
|
- Added cached_host_check_horizon option for enabling use of cached host check results
|
|
- Added enable_predictive_host_dependency_checks for enabling predictive checks of dependent hosts
|

|
- Added check_for_orphaned_hosts option and support for orphaned host checks
|
|
- Passive host check states can now be translated from their original DOWN/UNREACHABLE state if the
|
|
new translate_passive_host_results option is enabled
|
|
|
|
* Service check logic changes:
|
|
- 'parallelize' option in service definitions deprecated/no longer used
|
|

|
|
- Added 'enable_embedded_perl' option to main config file to control whether epn is enabled/disabled
|
|
- Added support for perl plugins to specify whether or not they should be run under the epn... The
|
|
second to tenth line of a perl plugin may start with '# nagios: +epn' or '# nagios: -epn' to explicity indicate that it
|
|
should be run under the epn.
|
|
- Added 'use_embedded_perl_implicitly' option to main config file to determine whether or not perl
|
|
plugins will use the epn if they don't explicitly allow/disalow it
|
|
|
|
* CGI changes:
|
|
