This new version is a complete rewrite, including new features and graphs,
cleaned up all the code, updated and enhanced a number of aspects in some
graphs, and fixed a lot of bugs. The most important change is that it no longer
requires 'crond' to work, instead Monitorix is now a complete standalone Perl
daemon being started and stopped like any other system service.
Please read the 'News' and 'Features' sections in the Monitorix web site to
give you an idea of all the changes and new features that include.
I want to give a huge thanks to the people that has contributed testing and
reporting bugs during its beta phase.
1.5.2 - 18-Nov-2010

same.
(thanks to Ramchander, ramchan10 AT gmail.com)
- Modified the man page of the configuration file to reflect the new alert
capability.
- Added a protection mechanism when collecting the filesystem disk usage. It

Nginx statistics are enabled. This creates less dependences for all people
that don't need the Nginx statistics.
- Optimized the accounting process of SSH connections using the same code for
Linux and for FreeBSD. Linux SSH connections using public keys are also
counted now.
(thanks to Markus Rennings, mren AT mrmx.de)

(thanks to Alessandro Soraruf, soraruf AT ntd.homelinux.org)
1.2.3 - 14-Jan-2009
====================
- Fixed the way how Monitorix creates the iptables rules. Now it uses the
parameter -I instead the -A in order to insert those rules in the top of
each chain so the data get recorded.
(thanks to Andrei Ioachim, andrei AT inteligis.com)
- Added support for the Postfix MTA in the SMTP counter of the Network Services
Demand graph.
(thanks to Andrei Ioachim, andrei AT inteligis.com)
- Fixed a typo in the declaration of $HTDOCS in the install.sh that only
affected to Gentoo installations.
(thanks to Carlos Perez, cpa.admin AT gmail.com)
- Removed the dependence of the 'lockfile' command in the init-script.
(suggested by Carlos Perez, cpa.admin AT gmail.com)
- Fixed to detect and show better the interrupt names.
- Added a minimal support for interrupt numbers bigger than 255. This minimal
support will let you see the names of those interrupts that have those big
numbers but their activity will rest still void.
(thanks to Brian Lopeman, brian.lopeman AT ctrh.org)
- Fixed a missing '127.0.0.1' in the URL of the graph images when

that were not correctly upgraded to five.
(thanks to Milos Prudek, prudek AT bvx.cz)
- Added the parameter -w during the hddtemp call just to make sure that it will
awaken the disk (if needed).
- Removed the .sh extension and the she-bang in the crond script for all Linux
distributions, although only in the Debian based ones people experienced
problems.
- Added a new configuration option to disable the crond mail related to
Monitorix errors.
(suggested by Detlef Neubauer, detlef.neubauer AT wzrz.de)
- Fixed to include the "Linux-Generic" as a supported OSTYPE.
- Fixed to include the monthly report files for the Italian language in the RPM
package.

- Added support for Linux software RAID devices of the form /dev/md/*.
(thanks to an anonymous IRC user called 'emilio')
- Added Italian language support in the monthly traffic report.
(thanks to Luca Ferrario, luca AT ferrario.net)
- Fixed the ampersand character to be an entity to avoid complaining messages
of Pango in the RRDtool 1.3 version.
- Included the "Linux-Generic" OSTYPE key that for a strange reason it was
missing.
- Fixed in the cover web page to only include the graphs that the system can
really offer. That will avoid to see more ethernets graphs than the number
of real ethernet devices and the same for the number of processors.
1.2.0 - 02-Apr-2008
====================
- Added support for systems based on LVM structure on top of a CCISS RAID of
disk drives.
(thanks to Bob McClure, Jr., bob AT bobcatos.com)
- Removed the full path of the 'pvs' command as it complicates the portability
of Monitorix to other Linux distributions.
(thanks to Eric, teknologist AT gmail.com)
- Added the "no warnings" pragma to temporarily block warnings while calling
the 'sensors' command.
- Fixed a bug introduced in the last version that prevented to see the interrupt
names on systems with 2.4 Linux kernels.
- Fixed the graph of disk temperatures in order to preserve the page layout
when there's no defined any disk device in the HDDTEMP_LIST array.
(thanks to Eric, teknologist AT gmail.com)

instead of no entries at all. That's if someone defined incorrectly the array
as @HDDTEMP_LIST = ""; instead of simply as @HDDTEMP_LIST;
(thanks to Eric, teknologist AT gmail.com)
- Removed the error messages when it has been defined in /etc/monitorix.conf a
network interface that it doesn't exist in the system.
- Fixed the error message "Use of uninitialized value in string eq at
/var/www/cgi-bin/monitorix.cgi line 454." that appeared in the Apache error
logs when using Multihost feature.
1.1.2 - 25-Feb-2008
====================

each graph (if enabled by $MULTIHOST_FOOTER) in the Multihost mode.
- Fixed to put the zero character instead of NULL when there's no value, in the
monthly file of traffic during the daily collecting of counters.
- Fixed a bug in the interrupt names that removed its first character affecting
only (mostly old) machines with "local-APIC-edge" support.

on, this graph will show its data in a more accurated way than before. People
can continue using the Real and Stacked modes though.
(thanks to Christian Meusel, christian.meusel AT inf.tu-dresden.de)
- Definitely fixed (I really hope so) a persistent bug during the numeric
extraction of the alpha numeric string of the lm_sensors temperatures.
- Fixed support for HP ML310 ProLiant server in the motherboard temperatures
graph.
- Changed the main page form method from POST to GET in order to be able to
remove the old /cgi-bin/monitorix.cgi and call localhost.cgi directly.
So now on, the localhost.cgi is renamed as monitorix.cgi and it's placed in
the same place where it was the old one, removing the /cgi-bin/monitorix
directory as it will not longer be used.
- Fixed to show the graph when using multihost feature and select only the
Context Switches graph.
- Improved how are showed the images when using multihost feature selecting
only individual hosts. Now they are bigger.
1.0.1 - 03-Oct-2007
====================
- Fixed some annoying messages like "Argument "+46M-BM-0C" isn't numeric in int
at /usr/bin/monitorix.pl line > 2710, line 13.". Now it extracts
correctly numbers from an alpha numeric string.
(thanks to Russell Morris, rmorris AT rkmorris.us)
- Changed from area-based to line-based the HP IPL temperature graphs in order
to follow the same aspect than the new LM-Sensors graph.
- Added a permanent "lower-limit=0" in the following graphs: Context Switches,
LM-Sensors, Network Packet Traffic and Network Error Traffic.
- Fixed the alignment of the legend in the FAN speeds graph on systems still
using the old RRDtool branch version 1.0.
1.0.0 - 04-Sep-2007
====================
- Added a new graph to see the temperatures of the system motherboard, CPUs,
fan speeds and hard disk drives using lm_sensors and the hddtemp tool. Such
graph is disabled by default since there are still a lot of motherboards with
unsupported sensors out there. This new graph can be combined with the HP
specific temperatures graph.
- Fixed some adjustments in the temperatures collector in newer HP ProLiant
servers with newer IML.
- Added the ability to select the percentages layout in the Kernel Usage
statistics. The possible options are (R)eal or (S)tacked.

- Fixed a bug that prevented to display correctly the interrupt names on newer
systems that use PCI-MSI instead of IO-APIC.
- Added the ability to change the refresh rate value in the statistics web
page. The default value remains unchanged to 150 seconds.
- Added some adjustments in the Monitorix init script.
- Extended the environment variable PATH to cover more root directories.

formatting. That only affected those who have RRDtool version above 1.2.13.
- Added the Zoom feature that, when enabled, it will permits to see a larger
picture just clicking inside any graph image.
(suggested by Dimitri Yioulos, dyioulos AT firstbhph.com)

- Added the Monitorix shortcut icon.
- Fixed a bad closing in the global tag.
- Fixed and optimized the start routine in the init script.
- Added a new composed-graph to see the Linux kernel usage per processor. The
graph will be divided by three parts (as always) only using, right now, the
biggest and the first one of the last two. The graph will show the global
percentages of total user time, nice time, system time, idle time and io-wait
time and separately, the number of context switches. Finally if the system
has multiprocessors there will be an individual graph per processor showing
the percentages of its CPU times (up to 8 processors).
(suggested by Michael Berger, MBerger AT scrippsops.com)
- Added a configuration switch (Y/N) per graph to enable or disable its
processing. This will help specially on embedded systems (where there is not
much disk space) to monitorize only what it is really needed.
- IMPORTANT NOTICE: The configuration file (/etc/monitorix.conf) has been
extended with important changes.
0.8.3 - 16-Oct-2006

(thanks to Bon, bon AT bugstudio.net)
- Consolidated to only one internal function all temperature graphs concerning
to the Hewlett-Packard server models.
- Fixed a broken image in the third temperature graph on some Hewlett-Packard
server models.
- Added support for up to 255 hardware interrupts to take advantatge of the
APIC feature in newer Linux systems. The "int.rrd" database will be upgraded
automatically.
- Because of the new support for so many interrupts, the interrupt graphs no
longer displays the unused ones.
- Added support for up to 5 NICs. The "net.rrd" database will be upgraded
automatically.
(suggested by Mike Harris, MikeDawg AT addictz.org)
- Removed the use of the generation number from the HP ProLiant servers, because
there are no differencies In the number of processors between the current
generations. Now the server names are changed from ML350G3 to simply ML350.
0.8.2 - 04-Jul-2006
====================
- Changed from dark-gray to orange the color of the last mount point in the
disk usage graph.

reload the page two times every time you want to see the most up to date
remote server graphs.
- Some cosmetic changes.
0.8.1 - 17-May-2006
====================
- Fixed problems while creating the ip counters when the network port variables
$PORT01, $PORT02, ... are removed or not defined in the configuration file.
- Added better support for Linux Software RAID devices (/dev/md0, /dev/md1, ...).
- Added specific colored logo images for black and white themes.
- Optimized the way how are used the chomp() functions, using now multiple
arguments.
- Optimized all the code that was using system commands to collect information.
- Dramatically reduced the CPU load average on most systems specially on slow or
old systems. As an example of that, a Pentium at 133Mhz sees reduced to 50%
its CPU load.

interrupts will be marked as "unused".
- Fixed the order of collected data in disk activity graphs.

- Really added the parameter "-P" in the "df" lines. In the previous version it
was only commented in the ChangeLog.
- Added a new file in the /etc/httpd/conf.d/ which will make the alias
"/monitorix", and will facilitate the installation with different html root
directories.
- Added an initial support for LVM (Logical Volume Manager) based systems.
- Added a warning indicator (changing the color background to red) on the 12
port graphs for each selected port if it seems to be down.
