NMIS 8.6.6G

This maintenance release of NMIS was published on 1 Jun 2018.

Highlights for the 8.6.6G release

  • New feature for multi-homed hosts: Polling Failover.
    NMIS can now ping and (SNMP-)collect data from a node using either its (primary) host or the new host_backup address.
  • The internal model cache now reacts to changes to configuration and model files automatically and immediately.
    In older versions model-related updates (e.g. threshold values) were only activated on the next type=update operation.
  • Improved resiliency for Nodes.nmis
    This version of NMIS automatically removes invalid data from Nodes.nmis (e.g. caused by a faulty manual edit of the file).
    If such a problem is detected, a message with the reason of the removal is logged and written to STDERR, and the problematic record is removed completely.
  • The CSV export functionality was reworked for improved robustness and convenience.
    • The  CSV file names now include the full graph heading and index/item/interface, besides the node name (as before).
    • For summarisation periods other than 'best' NMIS can now optionally add "min" and "max" columns for each data set for the relevant period.
    • The logic for summarisation period start and end now aligns the periods better with the data from the RRD files.
