Hallo,
great news.
Any links and informations how to use the new kubernetes monitoring?
Ralf

We are currently revising the Helm charts, which are very helpful for rolling the new Kubernetes monitoring out into your cluster.
Before the actual documentation is done, I will share a link to a How-To, likely sometime this week.

Ok,
any suggestions/ wishes for a test-cluster?
Otherwise I would use a small standard-setup for first steps.
A first hint:
We are working behind a proxy. So it should be possible to configure a proxy if necessary.
Ralf

Proxy is supported.
Test anything you want :smiley: We tested in Vanilla, AWS, EKS, GKE for 1.21 to 1.23.
But we officially support only Vanilla for now (official is the keyword, it will very very likely in most environments hopefully).

This is technically a downgrade, as the daily builds are ahead of the beta build.
Also you are changing from CEE to CME during that process.
You might want to take one step after another.

Thanks Robin
we needed to do it like that as no other option and requested by your team

Windows Hosts Dashboard
Wrong Memory Service Set
There is no Service called Memory$ existing on Windows
(we asked in the past a couple of times to allign it and name it everywhere Memory$ to avoid all this filter nonsense once and for all :wink: )


Thanks for trying all the stuff already!
Can you send all bug reports to feedback-2.1-beta [at] checkmk.com please? It then automatically creates a ticket, which is put into a 2.1 prio bug-fix queue.

Could you maybe include links to the werks details page for all the listed changes? That would greatly help in looking for interesting changes


3 Likes

all others, upcoming - yes

Instead of listing all the werks (some of them have already been implemented in 2.0), we would be much more interested in what exciting new things have been added in 2.1 and what has been significantly improved compared to 2.0. And secondly, where there is a need for action on the side of the customer during migration (non-compatible changes).

I guess the way to get such a list (even though still not prioritized) would be using the werks filter on checkmk.com (or within a 2.1 installation)
e.g. filter without bug/security fixes Werks
e.g. filter with only incompatible werks. Werks
(caveat: incompatible werks already from 2.0.0pX are still included in these lists, so your request is still very valid :slight_smile:

Hi @LaSoe
we typically do this as part of
a) our latest version page
b) the conference
