Fixed issues

• You can find issues and feature requests related to this release on our roadmap

User Interface

• FIX: Pagination used to be broken for some tables (#1273)

Automation

• FIX: API calls changing only object relations and no "real" property resulted in no change at all (#1315)

1.4.2

Fixed issues

• You can find issues and feature requests related to this release on our roadmap

Configuration rendering

• FIX: Caching had an influence on context-specific Custom Variable rendering when those variables contained macros (#1257)

Sync

1.4.1

Fixed issues

• You can find issues and feature requests related to this release on our roadmap

Automation

• FIX: A Sync Rule with merge policy used to re-enable manually disabled objects, even when no Sync Property disabled has been defined (#1223)
• FIX: Fix SQL error on PostgreSQL when inspecting Template-Choice (#1242)

Fixed issues and related features

• You can find issues and feature requests related to this release on our roadmap

Dashboard and Dashlets

• Multiple new Dashboards have been introduced, their layout has been optimized
• Dashboards are made aware of newly introduced permissions and try to provide useful hints

GUI, UX and Responsiveness

• Many little improvements related to mobile devices have been applied to Dashboards, Forms and Tables
• Search has been both improved and simplified. On most tables search spawns multiple columns, visible and invisible ones. Multiple search terms are combined in an intuitive way.
• Pagination (and search) has been added to those tables where it was still missing
• Some form fields referencing related objects are no longer static drop-down selection elements but offer suggestions as you type. This makes forms faster, especially in larger environments
• Navigation has been simplified, redirects after form submissions have been improved, more possibilities to jump to related objects have been added
• Form field description has been moved to the bottom of the screen. Might be easier to overlook this way, but while the former implementation was great for people navigating forms with their Keyboard, it was annoying for Mouse lovers
• Double-Click a Tab to enlarge it to full width
• Action Link bar has been unified, all links should now respect permissions
• All tables showing historic data are now grouped by day
• Property Modifiers, Sync Rules, Import Sources and more objects now offer description fields. This allows you to explain your colleagues all the magic going on behind the scenes

Object Types

• Service Sets got quite some tweaking and bug fixing
• Groups of all kinds are now able to list their members, even when being applied based on filters
• Command Argument handling has been improved
• It is now possible to configure Dependencies through the Icinga Director
• Cloning Hosts now allows to also optionally clone their Services and Service Sets

Templates

• The template resolver has been rewritten, is now easier to test, strict and faster
• Template Tree has been re-written and now also immediately shows whether a template is in use
• When navigating to a Template you'll notice a new usage summary page showing you where and how that specific template is being used. Therefor, many tables are now internally able to filter by inheritance

Template Choices

• While Host- and Service-Templates are powerful building blocks, having to choose from a single long list might become unintuitive as this list starts growing. That's where Template Choices jump in. They allow you to bundle related Templates together and offer your users to choose amongst them in a meaningful way.

Apply rules

• Various related issues have been addressed
• A new virtual "is true / is set" operator is now available

Permissions and Restrictions

• It is now possible to limit access to Hosts belonging to a a list of Hostgroups. This works also for Hostgroups assigned through Apply Rules.
• Data List entries can be made available based on Roles

Data Types

• SQL Query and Data List based Data Fields can now both be offered as Array fields, so that you can choose among specific options when filling such
• New overview tables give admins a deep look into used Custom Variables, their distinct values and usage
• Various issues related to Boolean values have been fixed

Import and Synchronization

• Many issues have been addressed. Merge behavior, handling of special fields and data types
• Problems with Import Source deletion on PostgreSQL have been addressed
• New Property Modifiers are available. When importing single Services you might love the "Combine" modifier
• It is now possible to re-arrange execution order of Property Modifiers and Sync Properties

• List views are now officially available. They are very fast and stream the result in a memory-efficient way
• Documentation better explains how to deal with various objects, especially with different types of Services (!!!!!)

Internal architecture

• Many base components have been completely replaced and re-written, based on and early prototype of our upcoming Icinga PHP Library (ipl)

1.3.2

Fixed issues and related features

• You can find issues and feature requests related to this release on our roadmap

Apply Rules

• Slashes in Apply Rules have not been correctly escaped
• Services applied based on Arrays (contains) did not show up in the Hosts Services list, and therefor it was not possible to override their vars
• Some magic has been introduced to detect numbers in apply rules - not perfect yet

Host Groups

• It has not been possible to modify Host Groups without defining an apply rule
• Hostgroups have not been sorted
• It is now legal to have external HostGroup objects

Rendered Config

• Synchronization filters failed when built with columns not used in any property mapping

Auditing

• The audit log now also carries IP address and username

Generic bug fixes

• Fixed erraneous loop detection under certain (rare) conditions
• Various issues with PHP 5.3 have been fixed
• Combination of multiple table filters might have failed (in very rare conditions)

1.3.1

Fixed issues and related features

• You can find issues and feature requests related to this release on our roadmap

Service Sets

• Various little issues have been fixed. You can now remove Sets from hosts, even when being empty. Services from Sets assigned to parents or via apply rule are now shown for every single host, and their custom vars can be overridden at a single host level
• Sets assigned to single hosts have been shown, variable overrides have been offered - but rendering did not include the Director-generated template necessary to really put them into place. This has been fixed

Usability

• A nasty bug hindered fields inherited from Commands from being shown ad a Service level - works fine right now
• There is now a pagination for Zones
• Multiedit no longer showed custom fields, now it works again as it should

Rendering

• Disabling a host now also disables rendering of related objects (Endpoint, Zone) for hosts using the Icinga Agent

REST API

Performance, Internals

• A data encoding inconsistency slowed down apply rule editing where a lot of host custom vars exists
• Some internal changes have been made to make parts of the code easier to be used by other modules

1.3.0

Fixed issues and related features

• You can find issues and feature requests related to this release on our roadmap

Service Sets

• You are now allowed to create sets of services and assign all of them at once with an apply rule
• Sets can be assigned to host templates or directly to single hosts

Service Variable Overrides

• When switching to a host view's services tab, you'll now not only see its very own services, but also ones that result from an apply rule
• You can override those services custom field values for every single host
• Same goes for services belonging to Service Sets

Apply rules

• A new "contains" operator gives more possibilities when working with arrays
• Service vars are now also offered in the apply rule form wizard

Custom Variables and Fields

• Issues with special characters in custom variables have been fixed
• In case mandatory fields should not have been enforced, this should work fine right now
• Fields can now be shown based on filter rules. Example use case: show a Community String field in case SNMPv2 has been selected, but show five other fields for SNMPv3. This allows one to build powerful little wizard-like forms like shown here

Agents and Satellites

• It is now possible to set Agent and Zone settings on every single host. This means that you no longer need to provide dedicated Templates for Satellite nodes
• The proposed Agent Deployment script has been improved for Windows and Linux
• Infrastructure management got a dedicated dashboard
• Kickstart Wizard helps when working with Satellites. This has formerly been a hidden, now it can be accessed through the Infrastructure dashboard

Commands

• Command arguments are now always appended when inheriting a template. This slightly changes the former behavior, but should mostly be what one would expect anyways.

Testing

• Testing instructions have been improved
• Running the test suite has been simplified
• While we keep running our own tests on software platforms, tests are now also visible on Travis-CI and triggered for all pull requests

Compatibility

• We worked around a bug in very old PHP 5.3 versions on CentOS 6

Activity log

• You can now search and filter in the Activity log
• In case you have hundreds of thousands of changes you'll notice that pagination performance improve a lot
• A quick-filter allows you to see just your very own changes with a single click

Deployment

• More performance tweaking took place. 1.2.0 was already very fast, 1.3.0 should beat it
• Deployment log got better at detecting files and linking them directly from the log output, in case any error occured

Work related to Icinga 1.x

• Deploying to Icinga 1.x is completely unsupported. However, it works and a lot of effort has been put into this feature, so it should be mentioned here
• Please note that the Icinga Director has not been designed to deploy legacy 1.x configuration. This is a sponsored feature for a larger migration project and has therefore been built in a very opinionated way. You shouldn't even try to use it. And if so, you're on your own. Nobody will help you when running into trouble

Translation

• German translation is now again at 100%

REST API

• Issues related to fetching object lists have been fixed

Integrations

• We now hook into the Cube module, this gives one more possibility to benefit from our multi-edit feature
• Icinga Web 2.4 caused some minor issues for 1.2.0. It works, but an upgrade to Director 1.3.0 is strongly suggested

1.2.0

Fixed a lot of issues and related features

• You can find issues and feature requests related to this release on our roadmap

Permissions and restrictions

• Permissions are now enforced. Please check your role definitions, permission names have changed and are now enforced everywhere
• Configuration preview, Inspect action, Deployment and others can be granted independently

Auditing

• Director provides a nice activity log. Now it is also possible to additionally log to Syslog or File in case you want to archive all actions elsewhere. Access to the audit log in the Director can be controlled with a new permission

Configuration kickstart

• Now imports also existing notification commands
• Kickstart can be re-triggered on demand at any time

Performance

• Config rendering got a huge performance boost. In large environments we managed it to deploy a real-world configuration 5 times as fast as before

Import / Sync

• Various improvements have been applied, mostly hidden small features that should make work easier. Better form field descriptions, more possibilities when it goes to syncing special fields like "imports"
• Property modifiers can now generate new modified columns at import time
• New property modifiers are available. There is a pretty flexible DNS lookup, you can cast to Integer or Boolean, JSON decoding and more is offered
• Datalist entries can now be imported and synchronized, this was broken in 1.1

Configuration possibilities

• You can now define assign rules nested as deep as you want, based on all host and/or service properties
• It is now possible to define "assign for" constructs, looping over hashes or dictionaries
• Improved Icinga 2 DSL support in commands, implicit support for skip_key
• More and more developers are contributing code. We therefore simplified the way to launch our unit tests and provided related documentation
• Other objects can be referred as a dropdown or similar in custom variables

GUI and usability

• Form error handling got a lot of tweaking, eventual exceptions are caught in various places and presented in a readable way
• The deployment button is now easier to find
• Configuration preview has been improved and allows a full config diff even before deploying the configuration
• Inheritance loops are now shown in a nice way and can be resolved in the GUI
• A new hidden gem is the multiedit functionality. Press SHIFT/CTRL while selecting multiple hosts and modify imports, custom vars and other properties for all of them at once
• Errors or warnings in all historic startup logs now link directly to the related config file at the time being, pointing to the referred line

Agent setup

• The Windows kickstart script got some small improvements and now enables all related ITL commands per default

CLI

• You can find a few new commands, with the ability to list or fetch all hosts at once in various ways being the most prominent one

Related modules

• There are now more additional modules implementing Director Hooks. AWS import for EC2 instances, ELBs and Autoscaling Groups. File import for CSV, JSON, YAML and XML. We heard from various successful Import source implementations in custom projects and would love to see more of those being publicly available!
