Monitorix

This release includes a number of improvements in the MySQL graph. It also includes a new feature in the Network Port traffic accounting to support either incoming and outgoing connections. There are new alert capabilities in the Mail MTA graph that should help indicate whether the number of delivered messages per minute is exceeding some defined threshold and if the mail queue is growing for any reason. There are other changes and bugfixes.

This release represents a massive rewrite, and has a modular code structure reducing, in some cases, its memory footprint and offering the ability to package every graph independently, making it more suitable for embedded systems.This version was mainly created to reach the same functionality and stability level as 2.6.0, and therefore doesn't include many new features, although a large number of bugs were fixed.

This version comes with a lot of interesting changes like support for Dovecot 1.2 log format, support for Polish language in monthly reports, and a lot of new support and changes in the System Services Demand graph, which includes the CommuniGate log format and the Fail2ban monitoring. The rest of the changes and bugs fixed are, as always, reflected in the Changes file.

This version introduces three new graphs to monitor the Squid Proxy Web Cache, the NTP server, and the Icecast Streaming Media Server. All graphs have been created following the classical Monitorix layout while, at the same time, attempting to be as complete as possible. Other highlights of this release include the support for network port monitoring and Nginx network traffic monitoring on FreeBSD and OpenBSD systems.

This version introduces two new interesting graphs to monitor NFS server and client statistics supporting NFS versions 2, 3, and 4. By popular demand, the new option $NETSTATS_IN_BPS has been included in the configuration file. This new option offers the ability to toggle all network values between bits and bytes per second. Another important change is the improved support for the newer NVIDIA driver. Some cosmetic changes were made and some bugs were fixed.
