Changes since last packaged version (4.9):
Version 4.10.1
BUGFIXES:
* When monit sent alert, it reported that alert handler failed,
which was not true and the message was delivered in fact. This
bug was introduced in monit-4.10.
* Fix the memory usage report on machines with more then 4GB
physical memory running Mac OS X.
Version 4.10
NEW FEATURES AND FUNCTIONS:
* Monit from this version on is licensed under GPL version 3
* Added support for SMTP authentication and SSL for sending alerts.
Example syntax:
- plain athentication:
set mailserver
smtp.foo.bar username "user" password "hidden"
- plain athentication with ssl:
set mailserver
smtp.foo.bar username "user" password "hidden" using sslv3
- plain athentication with tls:
set mailserver
smtp.foo.bar username "user" password "hidden" using tlsv1
Thanks to Thomas Lohmueller for patch.
* Allow to set the location of monirc using 'configure --sysconfdir'
option during monit compilation. Thanks to Klaus Heinz for patch.
* Monit now log user actions requested via monit's http interface.
* Monit http interface now use the POST method for forms
(change is transparent from the user point of view).
* Monit ICMP echo/ping test now supports 20 echo requests per cycle at
maximum.
* When monit identifies the process as zombie, continue the monitoring
(formerly monit disabled monitoring of the given service and sent alert
since it was considered unmanageable).
* Fixed#21447: Monit now adds a (dummy) Message-id header in alert
mails to prevent any spam checkers to accidental filter out monit
alerts based on missing message-id.
* Removed C99 particulars from monit code to support non-C99 compilers.
REMOVED FEATURE
* Removed support for local redirects in the HTTP protocol test. Users
must provide the correct path for the resource they want to test.
BUGFIXES:
* Fixed a possible monit crash on exit if a match rule was used and
referred a file containing multiple expressions. Thanks to Stephen
Dowdy for report.
* Added patch from Klaus Heinz which fix a problem in the Log module
that had monit using an uninitialized mutex after a monitrc reload.
* Fixed a possible crash on monit start when the monit control file
contained exec action with argument longer then 256 bytes. Thanks
to Stevan Bajic for report.
* Fixed linux 32-bit system CPU usage statistics (the fix in 4.9 was
incomplete). If a server had a long/large uptime and high load, the
reported CPU usage could be incorrect. Thanks to Aleksander for report.
* Fixed a problem where monit would incorrect display an error in the
web interface status page. This could occur if a service had failed,
monit had reload and the state of the service had passed just after the
reload (for example due to changes of the configuration rules). Thanks to
Claus Klein for report and help with the patch.
* Avoid filling the log with "pidfile does not contain a valid pidnumber"
entries during debug
* Added patch from Dave Cheney, which fix and reactivate resource testing
for Mac OS X Tiger (Darwin 10.4.x).
* Limit the number of consecutive redirects in http protocol test to 64.
* Report as error when the redirect in http protocol test points to itself.
* Fix memory leak when regular expresion is used in monit configuration
and monit is reloaded. Thanks to Josh Kelley for patch.
* Allow the "if changed timestamp" test to refer to a non-existing file.
This could be useful if the service is monitored in non-active mode
and the file is expected to be created later.
* When 'if match' statement was used with the path to the regex file
containing more then one line and the exec action was used for this
rule, then monit failed to parse the configuration and refused to start.
Thanks to Nathan for report.
* contrib/wap.php updated. Thanks to David Fletcher.
* Fixed#21354: Usage of the IMAP Protocol test was impossible due to a small
typo in the control file parser and the test would fall back to DEFAULT.
Thanks to Wolfgang Breyha for reporting the bug.
3.9.11 is mostly a maintenance release which fixes a couple of bugs,
and addresses warnings raised by gcc4, and merges some platform-specific
patches (MingW, NetBSD, Redhat/Fedora, Cygwin, Solaris), and other
patches (such as the new amuFormat.sh written in sh).
- new maintainer
- PKG_DESTDIR_SUPPORT
- ok by joerg
2.2.3
Feedback release after 2.2.2 and LISA 07, minor tweaks and bug fixes
"Harmless features"
IgnoreInterfaceRegex( "vm.*" ) added to control
function added for removing data from special interfaces from class data
Option checkroot=true/false added to copy directive. This switches
on/off the change in 2.2.2 about setting permissions on the
destination root when recursively copying files. Default is now
false.
Can escape colons in the strings now to avoid confusion with
expansion separator.
cfenvgraph --erasehistory users,www_in etc will now set the
average and variance of learned cfenvd data to zero. The current
week's trace is not affected.
audit=true/false flag added to most actions
2.2.2
The build procedure for cfengine changes in this version to
incorporate an intermediate library. The default behaviour is now
to build a static library which will be used by cfengine 3 and
other application interfaces. To build a shared library, use
--enable-shared=yes
NOTE to developers: if running from the compiled code you now need
to delete the files cfagent cfservd etc and recompile to see changes
appear in the code. This is due to the libtool build process.
libtoolizing compilation process for migration to cfengine shared library
(this is to support mulitple interfaces in future, and cf 3)
--
XML and HTML output options added to equip the internal instrumentation
with readable output in cfshow e.g.
cfshow --performance --html > output.html
firefox output.html
provides an easier summary and searchability in browser function
Instrumentation changed to use realtime functions where possible. Standard
unix timer is too insensitive to measure performance.
The beginning of an integrated auditing system has been added. See references
to AuditLog() in the code. This logs to a compressed database and can be extracted
in ascii, html, xml using cfshow, e.g. cfshow --audit --html > output.html
Auditing is switched on by
control:
cfinputs_version = ( 1.2.1 ) # record this version in log, e.g. cvs revision
Auditing = true
--
cfshow --classes
also shows the relative frequencies of classes
that have occurred on the system and the last time these were
observed.
cfshow -f cfagent.conf --regex "lin.*"
displays all rules in the named file whose classes match the named
regular expression. Note that the class "any" is not automatically matched
and the search is based on the class text from the file. The output is not
related to which classes are currently defined, and it will not recognise
the history of classes implicit through class-restricted imported files.
--
SCLI interface modifications.
--
Intermittency entropy code added to the copy instrumentation for
automatic host reliability measurements.
Special variable
IgnoreFriendRegex = ( regex )
prevents last-seen warnings about hosts matching the named regex
--
UserExists("name") and GroupExists("name") functions added to builtin functions.
ClassMatch function added in classes/groups to match regular expressions of other classes
--
Additional octet variables added on default IPv4 address, for convenience:
e.g.
590 : ipv4_2[eth1]=192.168
1895 : ipv4[eth1]=192.168.1.101
2100 : ipv4_1[eth1]=192
4049 : ipv4_3[eth1]=192.168.1
Methods can now expand some list variables, one list only per argument set.
This is a limited compromise pending cfengine 3. A patch for expansion of
variables in the control part of a program in methods has also been added.
Bug fix and code simplication of variable expansion.
-----
tied variable expansion added. Allows method workaround for file dissemination
by name, e.g. copy from
host1.conf -> /dir/host1/file.conf
host2.conf -> /dir/host2/file.conf e.g. for virtual or diskless machines
-----
Major changes to package manager code by Jo Rhett. Variable expansion
fixed by Mark.
-----
Option "best" added to checksum= in files action, this allows cross checking
of the two best known hash algorithms for each file. Currently this is md5 and sha
due to limitations in OpenSSL libcrypto.
UnCommentToLineMatching regex added
2.2.1
scli: type section added. This is a special case of shellcommands, which
send commands to the special shell scli by Juergen Schoenwaelder for
communicating with snmp devices.
Code refactoring for package management.
Bug fixes for problems introduced in 2.2.0.
Copy directory would not set owner correctly on root
2.2.0
Apart from minor changes, this version is about structural internal
changes that ease the eventual confluence with cfengine 3 and the work
going on behind the scenes there. Every effort is being made to
make this change easy for users and existing installations. New features
will be introduced into 2.2.x gradually, and the new front-end will
eventually merge into this.
This version accompanies a new introduction to cfengine published as
a SAGE Short Topics book.
* Some changes
EMANICS extensions and reference testing for context sensitive
network navigation patterns using voluntary cooperation contracts.
PrintFile("name") function added to alerts
!! List expansion in editfiles actions. This is an important change
because it can potentially affect existing configurations that contain
variables with a list separator in them. EditSplit is used for this.
elsdefine fixed in tidy
processes with action=warn only install fix
ifelapsed/expireafter fixed in editfiles
Instrumentation of copy/shellcommands measuring time/averages
use cfshow --performance
background=true in shellcommands was not implemented! (Fixed)
SLES10 recognition
RedHat/Fedora further classes
SELinux support begun by Jeff Sheltren UCSB, who notes.
> Currently, I have editfiles and copy working with selinux security
> contexts, although so far copy only has support for regular files; I
> haven't worked on links, etc. yet.
> Use --enable-selinux during compilation
Bug / misleading error message in ReadArray fixed
HostRange bug for numericals in hostname fixed by Steve Radar.
Package changes:
point HOMEPAGE to http://xen.org/
looks like the Xen peoples won't put a tarball on their http server
for this; I built one from their repository and put it in
${MASTER_SITE_LOCAL}
Summary of changes since 3.1.0:
some of our patches have been integrated upstream, thanks to Christoph Egger
various performances improvements and bug fixes, including some security
fixes, and one bug that would lead to floating point register
leak/corruption from HVM to PV guests on Intel VMX CPUs.
0.39 Mon 12 Nov 2007 (Adam Kennedy)
- No functional changes
- Updating to Module::Install 0.68
0.38 Mon 15 Oct 2007 (Adam Kennedy)
- Removed an extremely dangerous and reckless test case that tried
to delete a soft link to root and (when it failed) deleted the
actual root directory.
0.37 Sun 8 Jul 2007 (Adam Kennedy)
- Restoring support for broken symlinks (Marek Rouchal)
- Adding tests for the broken symlink case (Marek Rouchal)
- Tidying up the Changes file a bit
0.36 Fri 30 Jun 2007 (Adam Kennedy)
- Avoid the installation of Mac::Glue.
(It should not be necesary to test voice synthesis to delete a file)
- Anyone truly needing "trash" support will need to add a dependency
on Mac::Glue themself. The function may be split out of File::Remove
later down the track.
- Constanting the debugger flag for a minor speed and memory improvement
- Copy in a known-readonly flag for more accurate testing on Win32
- Remove assumption that -w implied deletion rights on Win32
- Validate that the file was actually deleted.
- Add better mode-handling for files.
- Add smarter implementation of "candelete" logic.
0.35 Fri 9 Feb 2007 (Stephen Steneker)
- Update makefile to require Mac::Glue version compatible with Intel macs
- Change pod heading from "methods" to "subroutines" [RT#13687]
- No functional changes from 0.34
