Geneos 6.0.0 Copied

Released: 20 September 2022

Geneos new features and fixes are released on a regular two-monthly release cadence. Over the last two and a half years, we introduced many new features on the Geneos 5.x. We generally bump up the major version every two years, so it is time to move up to Geneos 6.x.

ITRS will continue to support Geneos 5.x at least until the end of 2024 because we recognise that not everyone will be able to upgrade to Geneos 6.x for some months. Currently, there is not yet a fixed end-of-life date for Geneos 5.x.

Note

End of life for 4.x.x is 31 May 2023. If you are using 4.x.x, we advise you to upgrade to the latest version.

New features and enhancements Copied

These are the new features and enhancements of this release:

Issue key Component Release description
AA-5742 Gateway Gateway no longer includes a plaintext version of the database logging password in the metadata provided to Active Console.
AA-6514 Gateway, Netprobe Gateway can now manage the Collection Agent configuration and is able to:
  • Check if the configuration is valid when the Collection Agent has been started.
  • Monitor the Collection Agent process as part of the Gateway self-monitoring view.
AA-6377 Netprobe Publishing Collection Agent 3.0.0 datapoints to the Netprobe is now supported.
AA-6378 Gateway, Netprobe Ubuntu 20.04 LTS and 22.04 LTS are now supported in Geneos 6.0.
AA-6417 Gateway When Gateway validates its setup, it now reports an error for each AES password that cannot be decrypted and a warning for each AES password that can only be decrypted with a key loaded via the -previous-key-file option. Where Gateway uses AES passwords directly, for example, in Obcerv and database logging credentials, it will not attempt to connect if the password cannot be decrypted.
AA-6442 Gateway In addition to the key-file command line option, a new command line option for Gateway -previous-key-file is now supported to facilitate the change of the Gateway AES key. When this option is used, the Gateway will decrypt passwords using the key-file or the previous-key-file, whichever succeeds first. Gateway Setup Editor allows you to migrate passwords encrypted using previous-key-file and re-encrypt them using the new key-file. This makes it easier to change AES key more often to improve security.
AA-6444 Active Console, Gateway Gateway Setup Editor now supports the migration of passwords that are encrypted using previous-key-file and their re-encryption using the new key-file. This makes it easier to change the Gateway AES key more often to improve security.
AA-6445 Gateway, Netprobe, FIX Analyser 2 Netprobe When a sampler setup contains an AES-encrypted password that cannot be decrypted by the Gateway, a parameter is set by the Gateway for the Netprobe to replace that sampler with another one. This new sampler has a dataview containing no rows and a sampling status stating the problem. This prevents the plugin from attempting to use the invalid password, which may cause the Netprobe to be locked out.
AA-6449 Gateway Gateway Setup Editor now displays a warning message when the Data Access field for connecting to Obcerv is not set.
AA-6478 Gateway Collection Agent 3 plugin licensing model now uses the itrsgroup namespace when publishing datapoints. This change will not affect any existing plugin licences in use.
AA-6487 Gateway Gateway now adds a self-monitoring entity with a Dynamic Entity Health plugin to any Netprobe configured with a Dynamic Entity mapping type. This is the default behavior, but it can be disabled in the Operating Environment section in GSE.
AA-6494 Gateway Collection Agent 3.0.0 is now packaged with Netprobe 6.0.0.
AA-6503 Gateway The aesKeyType row describing the keys used by Gateway has been added to the GatewayData dataview.
AA-6506 Gateway Validation of passwords is now skipped when the -hub-validation-rules command line option is set.
AA-6535 Netprobe The Entities view of the Dynamic Entities Health plugin has been updated to publish metrics with names and meanings similar to the metrics published by the Collection Agents view of the Gateway-probeData plugin.
AA-6544 Gateway The Netprobe view log command (/PROBE:viewLog) can now be run from the following:
  • A Netprobe in Active Console.
  • From cells in the Gateway-ProbesData Netprobe dataview using the /GATEWAY:PROBESDATA:viewNetprobeLog command.
AA-6585 Gateway Collection Agent V3 built-in Dynamic Entity mapping has been added to support the Collection Agent 3.x.
AA-6588 Docker Image The base UBI image for Geneos docker images has been updated.
AZUREMON-387 Azure Azure Monitor plugin has been updated to support compatibility with Collection Agent 3.x.
AZUREMON-391 Azure The Google Gson library in the Azure Monitor plugin has been upgraded to 2.9.0 to address the security vulnerability: BDSA-2021-4363.
AZUREMON-458 Azure The Azure Marketplace VM has been updated to support Geneos 6.0.0 binaries.
AZUREMON-459 Azure Azure Monitor V3 builtin mapping has been added to support the Azure Monitor plugin 3.x.
C2-184 Collection Agent Individual components can now be enabled or disabled.
C2-187 Collection Agent The delay between daemon start-up and the healthy state has been reduced.
C2-188 Collection Agent A warning message about an undefined variable will no longer be logged when an environment variable substitution is commented out in the Collection Agent configuration file.
C2-195 Collection Agent An option to publish derived timer histogram metrics (min/max/count/Nth) has been added.
C2-197 Collection Agent The TimerHistogram has been replaced with a general purpose Histogram.
C2-223 Collection Agent The attributes workflow pipeline has been separated from the Metrics workflow pipeline to apply different delivery guarantees.
C2-226 Collection Agent The hostname dimension has been removed from the Kubernetes metrics.
C2-299 Collection Agent The log verbosity of the plugin loader has been reduced.
C2-345 Collection Agent A configuration test mode has been added to the Collection Agent.
COL-7674 Netprobe SU plugin has been deprecated.
COL-11093 Netprobe Netprobe can now search and try and locate Java when JAVA_HOME is not set. The precedence for locating Java are the following:
  1. -java-home command line option specified when running Netprobe.
  2. JAVA_HOME environment variable.
  3. Locate Java executable using PATH environment variable.
  4. Try the default installation folder:
    • Windows: C:\Program Files\Java
    • Linux: /etc/alternatives

COL-11327 Gateway The Collection Agent and plugins included in the Netprobe package have been upgraded to version 3.x.
COL-11328 Netprobe Helm Chart The Netprobe helm charts have been updated to use Collection Agent v3 docker image.
COL-11329 Gateway Kubernetes V3 builtin mapping has been added to support the Kubernetes plugin 3.x.
COL-11361 Gateway Prometheus V3 builtin mapping has been added to support the Prometheus plugin 3.x.
COL-11363 Netprobe When Dynamic Entities are configured for Self-announcing Netprobes, the Managed Enitities are now optional.
COL-11399 Netprobe The Kubernetes specific Netprobe package (geneos-netprobe-<version>-kubernetes.tar.gz) is no longer available to download from the ITRS Downloads website. We recommend that you set up Kubernetes monitoring using the Helm Charts available through ITRS Helm repository. See Installation using Helm for more information.
COL-11401 Netprobe MDM plugin no longer requires the Application Key file, mdm_appkey.txt.
HAAW-64, HAAW-333, HAAW-345 AWS AWS plugin now displays the following attributes of the monitored EBS volumes:* VolumeType * AttachedInstances * CreateTime
HAAW-329 AWS Metric names produced by the AWS plugin have been changed to be consistent with AWS convention. This may break existing x-paths that reference the old name. Please check the Gateway configuration to make sure AWS plugins related x-paths are valid.
