As our 2nd birthday was just last week, Icinga has a little belated present for you: version 1.4 for download! This time round we have many new features to show in the Classic UI and new Icinga Web, alongside bug fixes and much behind-the-scenes development in Core, IDOUtils and API.
As always, our highlights from the change logs (grouped as core and web) follow:
