Hello, everyone! We have just released M/Monit 3.0. The new release can be downloaded from: http://mmonit.com/download/ The release notes and instructions on how to upgrade can be found here: http://mmonit.com/wiki/MMonit/Release3-0 This release also sports a new HTTP-API you can use to query and get data off M/Monit. The HTTP-API is documented here: http://mmonit.com/documentation/http-api/Introduction All existing M/Monit users can continue to use M/Monit 3.x with their 2.x license. We think you will like this new version of M/Monit and hope that you will upgrade. The upgrade is free, but if you want to buy a new license we will not stop you. Thanks a lot to everyone who have downloaded and tested the beta version and reported issues. All reported issues should now have been fixed and we recommend that you update to this version if you currently are using the beta. We will continue to add new features in M/Monit (http://mmonit.com/wiki/MMonit/RoadMap) and also release new versions more frequently. First up, is agent-less monitoring. We will of course also continue to improve Monit and we plan to put the project out on Github shortly.

M/Monit 3 Beta extended trial
by Jan-Henrik Haukeland 31 Jul '13

31 Jul '13

Hello all, We will run the Beta period a little bit longer to make sure that everything is in tip-top shape. We have seen a problem with M/Monit behind a HTTP proxy where a Request sometimes could fail which we want to investigate. The beta version of M/Monit 3.0 unfortunately had a trial license which will expire tonight at 00:00 GMT. If you previously have downloaded the beta from http://localhost/download/beta/, please replace the <License> element in mmonit/conf/server.xml with this license key which will expire September 1: <License owner="Tildeslash Ltd. - Trial license"> J4UQCBBVRJ-AY2B4HXZRN-GNCLM6BIFR-IYQVXKEAXC-3BAXW5IPYT AS5DAWMTVZ-6CUXT5J7UW-RRXQK57KL5-J6LQHJ7XYK-VN7INK6GUQ 7ML5HKPB42-S64E6DQIJD-2SLZEXX5Q3-P3FKATMWPX-53RQKJD63K I3FCFCPXP5-J5XH36ZTPU-TQ2SSKZAJZ-OMNASIMZ4A-GMQADBZY5P D4E2A </License> If you already have a license key for M/Monit 2.x you can use that key instead in which case the beta version will not expire. We hope to release M/Monit 3.0 final later in August. Best regards -- Jan-Henrik Haukeland

M/Monit 3.0 Beta 2
by Jan-Henrik Haukeland 11 Jul '13

11 Jul '13

Hello, everyone! We have just released a new M/Monit 3.0 Beta version. You can download the new release from: http://mmonit.com/download/beta/ This beta has a trial license which will expire on August 1, but you can also use your existing 2.4 license with this beta in which case it will not expire. The final 3.0 version will be released before August 1. Beta 2 Release notes ==================== * Improvements: Slightly flatter UI Design * Fixed: Aggregated charts precision, e.g. load avarage should now show correct values * Fixed: Show individual data points as dots in the charts. If Monit's poll cycle is longer than 60s, the lines in the "hour" range were not displayed and data points were invisible. * Security: Removed Cross side scripting vulnerability in M/Monit's not-found error page * Security: Added HttpOnly attribute to session cookie so it is not accessible from Javascript * Fixed: disable password autocomplete in host and user admin * Fixed: Gmail didn't display multipart-formatted alert messages from M/Monit * Fixed: M/Monit should now work properly on Solaris * Fixed: The "seconds" range displayed CPU, Memory and Swap charts or their skeleton even if they were not selected or there were no data. * Fixed: Escape HTML formatted alerts * Fixed: The mysql upgrade script failed if foreign keys were missing * Fixed: if Monit was behind proxy, service actions in status page and/or host connection test in the admin/host page could fail if chunked encoding was used. * New: OpenBSD 4.9 - 5.3 build added.

M/Monit 3.0 license clarification
by Jan-Henrik Haukeland 10 Jun '13

10 Jun '13

Hello, I just want to clarify our license-plans for M/Monit 3.0. On M/Monit 3.x's Beta page, http://mmonit.com/download/beta/ we mentioned that we planed to use a subscription based model. We might want to do that in the future if we start to provide M/Monit as an online service, but if you download and run M/Monit yourself, the license model will remain as it is now. That is, a M/Monit 3.x license is a one-time payment (non-recurring cost) and the license does not expire. All existing M/Monit users can continue to use M/Monit 3.x with their existing 2.x license without any limitation. Best regards -- Jan-Henrik Haukeland http://tildeslash.com/ M: +47 97141255

[Announce] Monit 5.5.1
by M/Monit support 04 Jun '13

04 Jun '13

Hi, everyone! We have just released Monit 5.5.1 You can download the new release from: http://mmonit.com/monit/download/ This is just a minor feature and bug fix version we wanted to release before we start on the bigger changes we have planned for Monit, http://mmonit.com/monit/next/ The first thing we'll focus on is to get rid of the current poll-cycle architecture used in Monit now and replace it with a real-time scheduler so checks can truly run on-time with seconds resolution and also in parallel. The current poll-cycle architecture is not bad, it is very solid and "never" fails, but it does limit us from doing calendar or wall-clock time checks as well as monitor child-processes in real-time. Next, we need a better dependency specification between checks. The current dependency chain works bottom up, but we also need a top-down so we can say, don't run these checks if this one failed. We also plan to put the source code out on Github or similar over the summer so you can follow along if you want. Release information: ==================== IMPROVEMENTS: * Info and debug messages are no longer sent to stderr, only to stdout. Thanks to Sergey Kirpitchev for initial patch. * Improved output from 'check program', If the program returns an error message, include only that message in alert $DESCRIPTION so users can compose their own alert format. If program provided no output on error, use a default message. * Improved "check system", $HOST can now be used as a service name. $HOST will expand to the system hostname. Example: check system $HOST BUGFIXES: * Fixed "Unable to read magic" which was reported on first Monit start.

M/Monit 3.0 Status
by Jan-Henrik Haukeland 31 Jan '13

31 Jan '13

Hi all It has been a while since the last release of M/Monit and I wanted to give you a status update about our work on the next version of M/Monit. We had planned to release M/Monit 3.0 this December, but we still need a little more time. The reason is that we decided (a little late in the project) that we wanted to add full responsive design to the user interface. Implementing a responsive design requires a lot of user interface changes and that's were we are at now. A responsive design means that M/Monit will work as a web-app on mobile devices. The screen shot below demonstrate the concept by showing the same page in a Browser and on a mobile phone. Having the same app across all devices, lets us focus on implementing the best functionality. It also means that you can use the full power of M/Monit on your mobile device. By the way, the red line in the chart is a trend line, which we think will be useful, for instance to predict when it is time to invest in new HW. The Plan * We plan to release a beta version of M/Monit in January. The beta version will run for about a month and then we'll release M/Monit 3.0. I'll let you know on this mailing list as soon as the beta is available * If you already have bought a license for M/Monit 2.x this license will continue to work with M/Monit 3.0. * To be able to release sooner we have scoped out "agent-less" monitoring. If all goes well we plan to add this during the beta phase, otherwise it will be added in the next point release. Agent-less monitoring means that you can use M/Monit without requiring Monit. M/Monit will include the ability to check network service and also MySQL and Postgress databases. You should for instance be able to write custom SQL queries and monitoring them.

[Announce] Monit 5.4
by M/Monit support 06 May '12

06 May '12

Hi, everyone! We have just released Monit 5.4. You can download the new release from: http://mmonit.com/monit/download/ Release information: ==================== IMPROVEMENTS: * New process uptime test added. Allows to do some action in the case that the process uptime matches the given limit. For example to restart the process once per 3 days: if uptime > 3 days then restart * Linux uCLibc support: use internal getloadavg implementation in the case that the system libc doesn't implement it. BUGFIXES: * The monit hostname will fallback to plain machine's hostname if the lookup for FQDN hostname didn't found matching entry. The problem was, that based on the order in the /etc/hosts the FQDN lookup returned sometimes 'localhost' instead of the FQDN hostname. * The CPU usage for multi-threaded processes on multi-core machine was reported incorrectly in the case that the process used more CPU resources then equivalent to one core. Thanks to Tom Pepper for patch. * The content match test now sends one event per cycle and pattern. Even if there are multiple lines matching the same pattern, only one event will be generated. Also the event rate is fixed now, so it is possible to require match for X cycles before generating the event. * The /proc/ files content match test was skipped, as the file size on the procfs is 0, so monit supposed that there is no content to read. * FreeBSD: If the monitored process had children with multiple threads, the total memory usage was reported incorrectly. Thanks to Phil Kulin for reporting the problem. * Allow reading status and perform Monit actions when using client SSL certificate. Previously, if Monit http server was setup to use ssl and a client cert, status and action failed. Thanks to Markus Linnala for initial patch. * When the process is starting/stopping, do the process state check more effectively to not stress the low power devices with aggresive polling. Thanks to Thomas Petazzoni for initial patch. * Make the process start/stop wait resistant to large time changes. * Compilation: If PAM is enabled but the PAM headers or library are not found by the configure script, it will report error. * Cross-compilation: the configure checks the setjmp and vsnprintf with test program which usually cannot be executed when cross-compiling for other architecture. The configure script now takes the following arguments which allow to specify whether the setjmp works on this platform and whether the vsnprintf is C99 compliant. Thanks to Thomas Petazzoni for patch. ./configure \ libmonit_cv_setjmp_available=[yes|no] \ libmonit_cv_vsnprintf_c99_conformant=[yes|no] * Manual page language fixes. Thanks to Jonathan Boulle for patch. Contact: ======== If you have questions, comments or any other feedback about this release, please reply to this post. Best regards from the Monit team
