Version 2.2.0 was released on 30 Jan 20142015. It includes a number of new features.

...

• opconfig-cli.pl now supports bulk transport and credential set discovery for all defined nodes, not just a single particular one.
• opConfig can now optionally raise "Node Configuration Change" events via NMIS when a change is detected for a particular command.
  To enable this the command must be tagged with both change-detect and report-change. There is also the option to set a fixed event severity level (with report_level) or dynamically based on the number of changes detected (with report_level_min_changes). The default command_sets.nmis contains examples for both.
• opConfig now supports a flexible and configurable mechanism for purging old revisions from the database. The details are documented on the separate page about how to purge old data in opConfig. You can also set/unsed a "protected" flag for a particular command's revision from within the GUI.
• opConfig now includes a new Operational Status Report page, which makes it easier to get an overview of what opConfig is doing to which nodes, when, and how successful it was with these operations.
• Compliance summaries are now shown on a separate page under Views -> Compliance Summary, not buried among the Compliance Status Details.
• There is a new Node Report page, which provides a convenient overview of the active nodes, when the last commands were run, most recent change detected, most recent problem encountered etc.
• The per-node Node Info page now includes a link to the node editing page, if the privileges of the current user are sufficient.
• The opConfig GUI now provides a more interactive Node selector in the menu bar, which allows node lookup based on node name, IP address, group (and fragments thereof).
  This feature is adjustable using opconfig_gui_node_search_mode in opCommon.nmis and you can disable it altogether should you prefer the old drop-down list.
• The default command_set.nmis that is shipped with opConfig was extended to include more common diagnostic/troubleshooting commands, suitable for example for running in reaction to an event in opEvents.
• Group-based access control was refined and corrected in a few places. A user whose privileges don't  include a particular group will now not be able to access any data related to nodes in said group and any nodes that don't  belong to any group.
• opConfig's import capability from Open-AudIT Enterprise was improved and now provides (optional) filtering, so that unimportant changes in the audit data (e.g. uptime or last DHCP lease renewal) can be ignored and don't create unwanted new revisions in opConfig.
• The help texts and tool tips in the GUI were reworked and improved.
• Log file rotation now works correctly and logs are reopened post-rotation.
• The default file permissions for opConfig-generated files were adjusted and improved.
• The installer is now more robust.
• opconfigd's init script was made more robust and brought into line with the Linux Filesystem Hierarchy Standard.
• Some nuisance warning outputs of omkd and opconfig-cli.pl were eliminated, and error reporting and logging in general were improved.
• The CSS and Javascript components of the GUI were reworked for improved performance
