Upgrading Notes

Breaking change with non-equal versions

Check Command configuration generated by Icinga for Windows 1.2.0 require Icinga for Windows 1.2.0 or later deployed on all systems, otherwise you will run into issues with an unknown command Exit-IcingaPluginNotInstalled error.

  • To properly catch errors on check execution you will have to import check commands as Director basket again by using Get-IcingaCheckCommandConfig. Further details can be found in the upgrading docs

Notes

  • Improved documentation for plenty of Cmdlets and functionality
  • We have updated the handling for plugin outputs which will now only print non Ok values by using verbosity 0 on check plugin configuration and include Ok checks for packages with non Ok checks on verbosity 1. Additional details can be found on issue #99
