Notifications + are status messages that may be associated with an data instance. + * collectd: Threshold checking has been added to the daemon. This + means that you can configure threshold values for each data + instance. If this threshold is exceeded a notification will be + created. + * collectd: The new `FQDNLookup' option tells the daemon to use the + full qualified domain name as the hostname, not just the host part + es returned by `gethostname(2)'. + * collectd: Support for more than one `TypesDB' file has been added. + This is useful when one such file is included in a package but one + wants to add custom type definitions. + * collectdmon: The new `collectdmon' binary detects when collectd + terminates and automatically restarts it again. + * csv plugin: The CSV plugin is now able to store counter values as a + rate, using the `StoreRates' configuration option. + * exec plugin: Handling of notifications has been added and a special + executable type for Nagios plugins has been implemented. Also, the + ability to pass arguments to the executed programs has been added. + * logfile plugin: Handling of notifications has been added. + * ntpd plugin: The new `ReverseLookups' can be used to disable reverse + domain name lookups in this plugin. + * perl plugin: The thread handling and API have been improved. The + plugin is no longer experimental. + * uuid plugin: The new UUID plugin sets the hostname to an unique + identifier for this host. This is meant for setups where each client + may migrate to another physical host, possibly going through one or + more name changes in the process. Thanks to Richard Jones from + Red Hat's Emerging Technology group for this plugin. + * libvirt: The new libvirt plugin uses the `libvirt' library to query + CPU, disk and network statistics about guest systems on the same + physical server.
