bcnu

The setup utility has been improved to make installation easier. The information display in the logs, vmgt, fs, and procs agents has been improved. Various new contributed agents and changes have been added. The C Sources have been tidied up with function prototypes, etc. Better customization options are now available. A daemon restart option has been added. Other minor bugfixes and cosmetic enhancements have been made.

NEW: An alert history, a cookie-controlled login, Linux LVM support, a custom logs agent, and Oracle agents. IMPROVED: A setup script that generates sample alerts, debugging options, mail alert limits, and condensed output. BUGS SQUASHED: Minor bugs in AIX -- errpt, HPUX -- startup, Linux -- shell and default web page, hosttype not being set. Many other minor bug fixes and tweaks.

The major change in this release is a new setup script that makes it much easier to install bcnu for the first time. It will prompt for all of the important settings and hopefully leave a working configuration which can be tested immediately. There is also a setup script for clients, an agent to check oracle database availability, a contributed agent to check files for changes, and some minor enhancements and bugfixes for Linux and HPUX.

Major changes are the addition of AIX error log check, optional removal of the domain name, the ability to only log by the hostname, and a browser view that is now available by platform type. There are also some other minor bug fixes and better installation defaults.

Lots of minor bug fixes, automatic upgrade now works much more consistently, new code to display the host type on the monitor page, and a new admin guide.
