Icinga Cube 1.1.0 is out!

by | Jul 16, 2019

As a little introduction for everyone who has not heard about the cube yet:
The cube module is there to show statistics grouped by the custom variables that have been set for the hosts and services. They are then displayed in up to three dimensions for a quick overview to show the relations.

The services are going cubin’!

The most prominent change is the addition of services:
While it used to be only possible to have the hosts in a cube, the module has now been extended to provide full functionality with services as well.
You can easily switch between hosts and services, while we keep the filters of your cube in place!

  • Support Services #37

 

No more SQL dump crashes! (or at least fewer)

PostgreSQL rollup syntax errors are now smoothed out and will work as intended – also including the documentation for the requirements.
Having custom variables names like SQL keywords also no longer break the cube!

  • Fix SQL keywords breaking the queries #38
  • Fix rollup syntax for PostgreSQL databases #29 + #24

 

Restrictions are in place

Adds a filter that considers protected custom variables.
The cube now polls the restrictions set in the monitoring module and only shows the hosts that the user has permission to view.

  • Apply monitoring restrictions #33
  • Respect protected custom vars #25

 

And just a pinch of UX

Removed the possibility to add more than three dimensions to the cube – we live in a three dimensional world after all.
When the name of a cube tile is too long to fit, it will no longer push everything else downwards but be shortened with an ellipsis instead!

  • Limit to 3 dimensions #36
  • Truncate long headers #35

 

Fixed pröblems with ümlauts

The URL encoding has been adapted so that both white spaces and umlauts are now supported!
Name your vars however you like!

  • Fix Slices with whitespace or umlaut in data field #17
