Here is the complete ChangeLog:

New in version 1.1.2

SUMMARY

     * Lots of new checks
     * MK Livestatus gives access to Nagios log files
     * Many bug fixes

MK Livestatus:

     * Added new table "log", which gives you transparent access to the Nagios log files!
     * Added some new columns about Nagios status data to stable 'status'
     * Added new table "comments"
     * Added logic for count of pending service and hosts
     * Added several new columns in table 'status'
     * Added new columns flap_detection and obsess_over_services in table services
     * Fixed bug for double columns: filter truncated double to int
     * Added new column status:program_version, showing the Nagios version
     * Added new column num_services_pending in table hosts
     * Fixed several compile problems on AIX
     * Fixed bug: queries could be garbled after interrupted connection
     * Fixed segfault on downtimes:contacts
     * New feature: sum, min, max, avg and std of columns in new syntax of Stats:

Checks & Agents:

     * Check ps: this check now supports inventory in a very flexible way. This simplifies monitoring a great number of 
slightly different processes such as with ORACLE or SAP.
     * Check 'md': Consider status active(auto-read-only) as OK
     * Linux Agent: fix bug in vmware_state
     * New Checks for APC Symmetra USV
     * Linux Agent: made <<<meminfo>>> work on RedHat 3.
     * New check ps.perf: Does the same as ps, but without inventory, but with performance data
     * Check kernel: fixed missing performance data
     * Check kernel: make CPU utilization work on Linux 2.4
     * Solaris agent: don't use egrep, removed some bashisms, output filesystem type zfs or ufs
     * Linux agent: fixed problem with nfsmount on SuSE 9.3/10.0
     * Check 'ps': fix incompability with old agent if process is in brackets
     * Linux agent: 'ps' now no longer supresses kernel processes
     * Linux agent: make CPU count work correctly on PPC-Linux
     * Five new checks for monitoring DECRU SANs
     * Some new PNP templates for existing checks that still used the default templates
     * AIX Agent: fix filesystem output
     * Check logwatch: Fix problem occuring at empty log lines
     * New script install_nagios.sh that does the same as install_nagios_on_lenny.sh, but also works on RedHat/CentOS 5.3.
     * New check using the output of ipmi-sensors from freeipmi (Linux)
     * New check for LSI MegaRAID disks and arrays using MegaCli (based on the driver megaraid_sas) (Linux)
     * Added section <<<cpu>>> to AIX and Solaris agents
     * New Check for W&T web thermograph (webthermometer)
     * New Check for output power of APC Symmetra USP
     * New Check for temperature sensors of APC Symmetra WEB/SNMP Management Card.
     * apc_symmetra: add remaining runtime to output
     * New check for UPS'es using the generic UPS-MIB (such as GE SitePro USP)
     * Fix bug in PNP-template for Linux NICs (bytes and megabytes had been mixed up).
     * Windows agent: fix bug in output of performance counters (where sometimes with , instead of .)
     * Windows agent: outputs version if called with 'version'

Core, Setup, etc.:

     * New SNMP scan feature: -I snmp scans all SNMP checks (currently only very few checks support this, though)
     * make non-bulkwalk a default. Please edit bulkwalk_hosts or non_bulkwalk_hosts to change that
     * Improve setup autodetection on RedHat/CentOS. Also fix problem with Apache config for Mutliadmin: On RedHat 
Check_MK's Apache conf file must be loaded after mod_python and was thus renamed to zzz_check_mk.conf.
     * Fix problem in Agent-RPM: mark xinetd-configfile with %config -> avoid data loss on update
     * Support PNP4Nagios 0.6.2
     * New setup script "install_nagios.sh" for installing Nagios and everything else on SLES11
     * New option define_contactgroups: will automatically create contactgroup definitions for Nagios


Greetings and thanks for using Check_MK!

Mathias Kettner
