2007/09/06

The latest packaged version of Zenoss Core, Version 2.0.5, is available for download.

Zenoss 2.0.5 is available from: http://www.zenoss.com/download

Important NOTE - There are no new plug in files for release 2.0.5. The 2.0.4 plugin files work fine. No changes and no new ones have been generated.

Zenoss Core Version 2.0.5 is primarily a maintenance release that addresses the following issues:

ZENEVENTS

• Corrected an error where Explanation and Resolution in event mapping did nothing. Adding an explanation and resolution in event mapping now copies them to any matching event. (#1888)

ZENRRD

• Corrected an error where RRDDataPoint format attribute was not honored and was overwritten with a default value at graph creation time. (#1895, r6070)
• RRD graphs were not cleared from cache causing a memory leak in the Zope server. (r6259)

ZENACTIONS

• Eliminated failure tracebacks when commands are actually successful (Previously, false failure tracebacks could be generated.) (#1902 and r6086)
• Zenactions now throws a warning and properly processes an alerting rule when an email address is not specified either per the specific user or globally. (r6255)
• Minimum/maximum threshold and event severity was incrementing beyond 5 depending on escalations. (r6254)
• Corrected an error preventing the changing of messages associated with alerting rules. (#1936)

USER INTERFACE

• Added more readable interface speeds. Interface speeds now use scaling to ease readability. For example, instead of 1000000000 it will now read 1.0Gbps. (#1930)

ZENMODEL

• Makes sure if you have an IP, that the IP is used for the Interface map. (r6083)
• Fixes topology dependent issues when you have diverse network paths. (r6138)
• Handle bad interface tables from Adtran routers (#1898)

ZENPACKS

• Corrected an error in the Zenpack install script that leads to executables (included in zenpacks) not being assigned execute rights. (#1890)

ZENAPPLIANCE-ZENMIGRATE

• Removed --commit command line option in zenmigrate appliance upgrade script. That option does not exist. (#1893)

ZPROPERTIES

• Corrected a typo in zproperty zLocalInterface. Found only when making a change from the default value. (r6088)

SOLARIS ISSUE

• Zenoss now handles Solaris bad route tables. (r6263)

Enjoy!
