What's new in IPCheck Server Monitor 5.4.0.793/794

Apr 13, 2007
  • New: Event Log Sensors can now scan event logs for specific 'Event IDs'
  • Changed: Custom (TCP) script sensors stored the full path to the script causing problems with probes installed in another directory than the host
  • Changed: The input field for 'Custom OIDs' (SNMP Advanced Sensors) accepts now up to 512 characters
  • Changed: Had to change the probe handshake ID => update of all probes is required when this new version is installed on the server
  • Bugfix: Some headers were displayed incorrectly in the Notification Cross Reference
  • Bugfix: When playing sound notifications error messages sometimes displayed an incorrect text stating that the operation was successful
  • Bugfix: Error type was not set correctly for DNS Sensors when no data record was found in the server's reply (could lead to incorrect graphs/reports)
  • Bugfix: Public URLs for groups were not handled properly during import. An imported group has now 'Publish Group' disabled by default
  • Bugfix: Fixed a problem with wrong min/max settings in exported INI files after a group export
  • Bugfix: German language string for missing network map graph was too long
  • Bugfix: SNMP Helper libraries updated. Old libraries caused errors with MS-SQL counters among others
