Withdraw of the 6.9.2 Release

Unfortunately, due to critical issues identified with version 6.9.2, we have decided to remove it and ensure it's no longer available for download. These issues impacted the ability to install or upgrade but none were security-related. We are diligently working to resolve these issues and are planning to release an updated version 6.9.3 in early May.

What if you've already upgraded?

For customers who have already upgraded to 6.9.2, no immediate action is required, as none of these issues are security-related. Once it's available, you will still be able to upgrade to 6.9.3 as normal. We appreciate your patience and trust as we continue to enhance our software to better serve you. Thank you for your understanding.

Opspack integrations

Overview Copied

An Opspack is a configuration bundle consisting of a Host Templates with associated Service Checks, Plugins and Host Attributes that can be used to monitor a specific service or device with minimal extra configuration.

To get more details on the Opspacks included within Opsview Monitor, have a look at​ the Opspacks page on the main website.

Note

Opspacks are no longer available to download from the opsview.com website. This is because newer Opspacks often rely on the most recent release of Opsview Monitor and are not backwards-compatible with earlier releases.

All Opspacks are automatically included in every release made, so in many cases you can upgrade to the latest available version of Opsview Monitor to get the update you are looking for.

In certain circumstances, if the Opspack you are looking for is not present and you are using the latest version, then it is likely that this will be available in the next major release - if you wish to check this, please raise a support incident to verify with us through the ITRS Support website.

You can also write your own plugins, see Active Checks for more information.

You may wish to easily exchange a Host Template with another Opsview Monitor instance. This section will show you how to export an Opspack from the Host Templates page. For more information, see Host Templates - Exporting/Importing Opspacks.

Extra Opspack information Copied
