New in AdRem NetCrunch 10.0.2.4191 (Dec 27, 2017)

  • What's new:
  • Full IPv6 support:
  • Every monitor, node, and sensor now accepts IPv6 addresses. If a node is monitored by DNS name, you can select which address version will be used for monitoring.
  • Business Status Node:
  • Business Status Node allows you to combine status of various elements such as nodes, services or sensors into one, virtual node status. With this node, you easily define a status for critical or redundant elements.
  • SNMP Improvements:
  • NetCrunch comes with improved SNMPv3 support and thousands of new MIBs precompiled. The database contains over 8500 MIBs with roughly 800,000 objects, which makes it one of the largest MIB collections in the world. Using MIB compiler and creating module filters is much easier now.
  • Upgraded All Sensors:
  • Every sensor has been upgraded, and some were consolidated.
  • Common Updates:
  • You can change the display of the sensor (click next to its name at the pencil)
  • All connections, protocols, and authentication settings are managed through profiles
  • Sensor alerts are suppressed on node DOWN the same way as network service alerts
  • All sensors provide test button for real-time parameter testing
  • Specific updates:
  • DNS Sensor has a better ability to check any DNS record and allows for performing reverse requests.
  • Generic Agent Sensor can now receive data for multiple nodes in a single POST request.
  • HTTP/S Sensors support custom headers and cookies.
  • Remote Sensor Node:
  • You can create a node just to receive data from a remote agent. You can easily create a monitoring agent (in few script lines and using curl) and send data using REST API to such node. Its status is determined by the agent activity.
  • SQL Sensors:
  • NetCrunch supports executing SQL query to popular databases. It supports SQL Server, Oracle, PostgreSQL, MySQL, MariaDB, and ODBC sources.
  • The sensors allow measuring query execution, but more importantly, they allow for of the processing returned data. Multi-row results can be easily converted into performance metrics. Single row result can be treated as an object with properties, so NetCrunch can alert on state change.
  • Redundant Mail Servers:
  • NetCrunch now can handle multiple redundant SMTP servers. You can define up to 10 SMTP servers, which are checked in order to send a notification email.
  • Layer 2 Maps Improvements:
  • Layer2 maps support Etherchannels now. The main view shows switches with their connections. Additionally, we added 2 new monitoring packs for monitoring switch port (Link Aggregation) and for monitoring if node port link has been changed (Physical Segments).
  • SSL Certificate Sensor:
  • This sensor allows checking of the SSL certificate expiration date, and various certificate properties. Additionally, HTTP sensors get a very similar capability. The sensor can be used to validate any SSL/TLS based connection, not just for HTTP/S.
  • Node Monitoring Templates:
  • NetCrunch allows for easy changing of settings for multiple nodes. Now you can define a template for the node which synchronizes settings for sensors, monitoring packs and monitors for multiple nodes automatically.
  • WMI Sensors:
  • NetCrunch provides 9 new advanced WMI sensors.
  • File Shares - Monitor Windows file shares
  • Process - Monitor single or multiple process instances
  • Process Summary - Monitor summary values of multiple processes (process group)
  • Remote Ping - Check connectivity from remote system by running Ping remotely
  • Time Difference - Check time difference between remote machine and reference machine (NetCrunch Server or NTP server).
  • WMI Data - Select WMI class and instance key to retrieve object properties (no query required).
  • WMI Object - Monitor specific WMI object without writing WQL query.
  • WMI Perfmon - Perfmon interface through WMI. Select objects and counters, like in regular Perfmon. No cryptic WMI classes needed.
  • WQL Query:Object - Query WMI for an object and trigger alerts on its state
  • Updated VLAN support:
  • VLAN dynamic folder has been added to default Atlas views
  • Information about VLAN is available as a column in node details grid
  • Extended Multiselection:
  • NetCrunch fully supports multi-selection operations on all node settings. So, it's easy to add a service or change certain monitor settings on multiple nodes at once.
  • New Integrations:
  • We added support for sending MQTT messages and support for SMS Eagle and AlertOps services.
  • Remote Probe:
  • Remote Probes are remote monitoring agents, able to check 70+ network services, including SNMP Ping and HTTP ping.
  • The probe is very lightweight and can be installed on accommodating hardware. These agents can be installed behind NAT and will monitor remote nodes and send data to NetCrunch.
  • Organizational Groups:
  • Dealing with views of organizational groups has never been easier. Add nodes to an organizational group and assign a user to the given group. As a result, the user will see nodes from the given group only. There is no need to create separate views, as all views will be filtered accordingly. Organizational groups are supported in Web Console and in GrafCrunch.
  • Text Log Sensor:
  • This new sensor allows for remote log monitoring by using ssh/bash. The text log sensor supports multiple sources such as Windows/SMB, FTP/S, HTTP/S, SSH/Bash, and SFTP.
  • JS Parsing Expression:
  • NetCrunch now allows using Javascript (ES6) for parsing expressions.
  • Flow Dashboard:
  • Flow dashboard is available for every Atlas View. Additionally, it now supports multiple flow sources and you can filter by flow sources.
  • Data File Sensor:
  • This new sensor replaces the old Open Monitor feature. It allows for polling data from a remote file using various channels such as FTP/S, HTTP/S, SSH/Bash, SFTP, Windows/SMB. It can be added to any node, even to one without any address (Remote Sensor Node).
  • RADIUS UX Sensor:
  • This sensor allows for checking authentication process and validates the response from a RADIUS server.
  • System Uptime Sensor:
  • It simply checks device uptime and supports WMI, SSH/Bash, and SNMP protocols.
  • 1400+ Tasks Done:
  • This has been a very busy year for us. We've completed more than 1400 tasks including bug fixes, improvements, and new features. Detailed list of changes is in the release notes.

  • critical: Newly compiled MIB's had not been visible in console
  • major: Removed many unwanted (false) alerts. Alerts fixed: node down on nodes that have never been monitored yet, connection reliability degradation alert was triggering improperly, processor queue length alert is now related to number of cores and is not influenced by spikes.
  • major: Installing service NetCrunch service on domain account was confusing for many users, now NetCrunch installs and runs on a Local System Account. Users which want to monitor their network using a domain account can switch NCServer service settings to the desired account manually (the account must have admin rights to NetCrunch server otherwise program has no access to its own data and computer).
  • major According to Microsoft documentation, NetCrunch was displaying only "non wizard" marked counters. It's well known fact that Microsoft does not read own documentation and perfmon displays counters at its own discretion: NetCrunch will now do the same. All windows counter are available.

New in AdRem NetCrunch 8.2.1.3158 (Oct 3, 2014)

  • Improved MIB database searching:
  • NetCrunch built-in MIB database contains about 300,000 SNMP objects. So we decide to improve searching the database. You can also now create bookmarks to MIB tree. Adding multiple SNMP counters has been also improved.
  • Advanced File & Folder Monitoring Sensor:
  • File sensor allows to monitor file presence, it's size or modification time. It also allows to search file content or finding new text log entries.
  • New folder sensor allows to watch specific folder content when a new files are added or any files are removed.
  • Apache, DNS & Page Monitoring Sensors:
  • We’ve extended our monitors beyond core OS services to support objects and applications. The monitors target files, queries, Web pages, etc.
  • Apache
  • A sensor for monitoring Apache Web Server.
  • DNS Query
  • A sensor that allows users to check results of various DNS queries. It issues alerts when the server does not respond or responds improperly to queries.
  • Web Page
  • An advanced sensor that monitors dynamic pages with JavaScript. It loads all page resources (like a Web browser) and issues alerts on load errors and load time. The analysis includes the execution of JavaScript and a check for content and text changes.
  • High Precision Performance Monitoring:
  • NetCrunch 8 supports floating point numbers in performance data. Both processor utilization and bandwidth now can be calculated and tracked with high floating point precision.
  • 100+ Monitoring Packs:
  • NetCrunch 8 comes with over 100 Monitoring Packs containing monitoring settings for popular applications and devices.
  • SNMPv3 traps:
  • NetCrunch 8 can decode encrypted SNMP v3 traps (TRAP and INFORM packets). SNMP profiles have been extended with the additional notification profiles. NetCrunch can also forward SNMP v3 traps.
  • Automatic Alert Resolution:
  • All internal alerts are correlated by default, so NetCrunch knows when the alert begins and when it is finished (closed).
  • Version 8 simplifies alert actions by adding the action executed when the alert is closed.
  • Additionally, when the program receives a correlated event, it automatically closes the alert and marks it as resolved`.
  • NetCrunch Server Status Dashboard:
  • NetCrunch capacity depends on the monitored subjects and the hardware is server running. NetCrunch 8 introduces new dashboard showing NetCrunch server state. It helps you to identify the case when program is overloaded. It also shows links to all logs written by all NetCrunch components (backup, sensor engine, report engine, NetFlow server, etc.).
  • External alert correlation:
  • External alerts (syslog, SNMP traps, Windows Events) can be easily correlated by adding closing events to the defined alert.
  • New Node Monitoring Configuration:
  • The node configuration has been completely redesigned. There are only 4 tabs in the window now, compared to 11 in the previous version. Now, you can set alerts and monitoring settings for sensors and services in one place. Configuring NetCrunch has never been easier and faster.
  • Improved average calculation for thresholds:
  • NetCrunch 8 allows users to set thresholds on average values calculated from a number of samples. As the monitoring of the data can vary for different nodes this is a more convenient way to set alerts for multiple nodes.
  • Baseline and Range triggers:
  • NetCrunch 8 adds new alert triggers for performance counters available to every monitor, including Open Monitor
  • Baseline Thresholds
  • This trigger works after collecting data for one week. You can set the threshold on the deviation from the baseline calculated by the program (by percentage or value).
  • Range
  • This trigger is attached to the allowed (or disallowed) range for the value, and is much easier than setting up two separate thresholds. The trigger is reset when the value falls into range with the given margin.
  • Desktop Notification Window:
  • The desktop notification window has been redesigned and improved.
  • Event Log Summary:
  • A new drop-down window presents a clear summary of alerts in a given time range. The window also allows users to select and manage custom event log views.
  • New System Views:
  • Linux, Mac OS X, BSD
  • NetCrunch 8 extends support for Unix family systems. It supports the newest versions of Linux, BSD and Mac OS X, and adds new views in the node status window. It allows the display of: Processes, Opened Files, TCP Connections and Unix Sockets..
  • New Monitoring Pack Manager:
  • We’ve updated the interface with a new window to support the larger number of Monitoring Packs. The new window also allows Monitoring Packs to be imported and exported.
  • Improved Event Log Database:
  • In addition to tracking alert correlation and automatically closing alerts, the improved event log database displays only relevant (open) alerts. The database performance has also been greatly improved; writing of new events is now more than 10 times faster than previous releases.
  • Search Support:
  • A search option has been added to multiple windows, making it easier to search Monitoring Packs, counters, actions, events and nodes.
  • Backup, Export Import:
  • The user interface has been updated. NetCrunch can also now perform a Full Backup containing all server configurations (including registry settings).
  • 3500+ Pre-compiled SNMP MIBs:
  • NetCrunch 8 adds another 1500 MIB modules to the database, for a total of almost 1GB (13,000) of source MIB files.
  • Updated Icon Set:
  • The NetCrunch 8 icons set has been updated to reflect the increased range of devices that can be monitored.
