Agent controller: add support for systemd version 219 (checkmk.com)
Does this means full systemd support for RHEL 7 / CentOS 7 ?

1 Like

The systemd version for CentOS7 is 219. That means if you use the agent controller you should have “full” systemd support.

I have updated to this version but when I download the linux agent I get version p19. Can you check it please?

Did you bake and sign your agents?

Hello @robin.gierse,

not yet. On Tuesday we updated from checkmk 2.0 to 2.1p19 and today to 2.1p20. We did not have time to register the agents. So today when we went to download the current version of the agent we found that the previous version was downloaded.

Version is Free Edition

@a3093
Hi, you need to run “bake agents” after each update of the backend so that the new agent is created. Only then can you download the new agent package. “Bake agents” alone has nothing to do with agent registration. :slight_smile:

regards
Christian

PS: @robin.gierse Please correct me if necessary :smiley:

Hi, when should we expect to see the 2.1.0p20 for Docker Free/Enterprise trial to be available? The p19 has dissapeared so the latest available is 2.0.0p33 now.

Thanks.

@fondbeard we are looking into it. Will keep you posted here.
