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.

AutoMonitor Manager

The Opsview AutoMonitor Manager is used for discovering devices set up on your network for more easily adding monitoring of devices into Opsview.

Dependencies Copied

It uses the python binary provided in opsview-python3.

Installation Copied

This component is deployed alongside the Scheduler component when installing Opsview Monitor.

Configuration Copied

The user configuration options should be set in /opt/opsview/automonitormanager/etc/automonitormanager.yaml. Default values are shown in /opt/opsview/automonitormanager/etc/automonitormanager.defaults.yaml, but changes should not be made here since the file will get overwritten on package update.

The following options can be set:

• scan_timeout: The maximum time allowed for a complete scan (seconds).
• master_probe_weighting: The AutoMonitor Manager asks each collector to assess its suitability for performing a scan. If the collector is able to connect to the target, it reports the time taken to connect. In order to favour running scans on collectors, this weighting is added to the time reported by the Master Monitoring Server (milliseconds).
• logging: General logging config.

Management Copied

DPKGs Copied

Watchdog service files are now managed by the package manager, removing the package would leave the watchdog service file behind with a .save extension. Purging the package will remove it. The package manager managed config files are as follows

/opt/opsview/watchdog/etc/services/opsview-automonitormanager.conf

RPMs Copied

Watchdog service files are now managed by the package. Any modifications will be saved at upgrade and remove processes with the .rpmnew and .rpmsave extensions correspondingly.

/opt/opsview/watchdog/etc/services/opsview-automonitormanger.conf

Service administration Copied

As root, start, stop and restart the service using:

/opt/opsview/watchdog/bin/opsview-monit <start|stop|restart> opsview-automonitormanager
