NMIS 9.4.2

...

• Config Change: The Event "Node Polling Failover" was not generating notify on upNotify when Closed/Recovery.  This was caused by the parameter 'upnotify_stateful_events' in 'Config.nmis'.  The parameter should include 'failover' (i.e. 'down|proactive|alert|failover') to get Clear notifications.
• It was possible to edit Nodes in the Poller in NMIS in a High Availability environment. This caused the Poller and the Primary system to become out of Sync.  This has been fixed.  Nodes can no longer be edited in the Poller system in this environment.
• When Node configuration changes were made, especially in OMK->Admin, the changes were not immediately reflected in NMIS, as the stored configuration was updated, but the running configuration did not show the changes.  This has been fixed.
• The 'Contrib' program 'server_perf_report.pl' has been ported to NMIS9.

Models

• Ported the NMIS8 Plugin 'combinedCPULoad' to NMIS9.
• The 'ZyxelInterface' plugin has been ported to NMIS9.

Bugfixes

• NMIS9 was displaying empty groups in the metrics and health panel. This issue is partially fixed.  It is caused by Groups with members lacking historical data.  A future update will improve the handling further.
• Running an update did not always update connection link information.  This has been fixed.
• In a RedHat 8 System, the 'fping6' command has been removed because 'fping' now properly handles IPV6.  NMIS would loop constantly on startup looking for this command.  NMIS now checks the version of 'fping', and does not require 'fping6' if 'fping' handles IPV6.  Also, if one of the required programs is missing, NMIS will now simply report this as a fatal error in the log and exit, so that the Administrator can know immediately that there is a problem.
• A logic error in Interface handling caused the system to occasionally be unable to locate an Interface because the calling routine requested a specific Interface, and the logic attempted to do a global search, which required an extra argument that was not included.
• node_admin.pl when using the 'import_bulk ' action was failing failing to import Node Configuration data from NMIS8.  This has been fixed.

...
