     13munin (1.4.2, r3167:3231, 2009-12-16) 
     14 
     15* Munin::Plugin::Pgslq: Clean the fieldnames before returning them, so 
     16  we don't generate invalid data with for example a dash in the 
     17  database name. 
     18* jmx_: Add authentication support, fix exceptions in various memory 
     19  related parts, refactor connection negotiation to one central 
     20  connection class, add default connection info for jmx_, so we 
     21  actually are a bit autoconfy 
     22* munin_update: Update to work correctly with 1.4, document and enhance a bit 
     23* munin_stats: Provide better graph_info and set some warning and 
     24  critical levels at 4 minutes and 4m45s 
     25* Improove colors contrast in jmx plugins which have Max area, to make 
     26  them more readable + fix some indentation 
    1527* ntp_offset: make info into graph_info 
    1628* Munin-(node|run): Make group name resolution lazy, enhance error 
     
    3345* Switch fonts to DejaVuSans og DejaVuSansMono.  Vera is now obsoleted 
    3446  by DejaVu in most contexts. 
     47 
     48  INSTALLERS: On platforms with RRD 1.3 the fonts need not be removed 
     49  and no paths need to be installed as long as the DejaVuSans font 
     50  family is installed. 
     51 
    3552* Reorder somewhat to get lines on top of areas 
    3653* Patch from blueyed to make munin-*cgi-graph work

    7575will change names as you upgrade and auto-configure your nodes, not 
    7676when you upgrade the munin-master.

     79Users of Munin 1.2 in combination with NMSes 
     80-------------------------------------------- 
     81 
     82There are two issues that have been reported. 
     83 
     84Users of Munin in combination with Nagios have reported that because 
     85some graphs have changed their "graph_title" setting this 
     86dis-associates the tests from the right nagios checks. 
     87 
     88Also some plugins do not have default warning and critical levels set 
     89any more (e.g. "load") because the opinions on what is "normal" load 
     90differs widely.  This means that the plugins will not send warning and 
     91critical events to contacts any more.  The warning and critical levels 
     92should be settable for all of these plugins, please use the command 
     93"munindoc <plugin>" on the host where the plugin is installed to see 
     94how to set these levels. 
     95 
     96Too audit the differences in warning and critical levels you can make 
     97a copy of the munin file called "datafile" before upgrading (or get 
     98one from backup), and use egrep to get a listing of the settings prior 
     99to update: 
     100 
     101  egrep '(warning|critical)' datafile.old 
     102 
     103and again on the post-upgrade datafile to compare the lists so you can 
     104specify the ones you need.
