Dear Community,
We’ve learned from different sources (#2964, using mod_gearman, PNP rrdtool illegal update time) that a performance increasing change in Icinga Core 1.7.0 (#2182) was causing trouble in the event scheduling logic, causing duplicated events when rescheduling. This resulted in duplicated (or even more) check events under various circumstances, as well as too much performance data and more output. We’ve been testing various fixes in our development branches (#2676). This included yet another bug (#2993) which helped resolve it overall – big shout out to Imri Zvik, thanks for the awesome help! Also big thanks to Jög Linge and Christophe Haen for testing the git r1.7 release branch 🙂
There were other core bugs which we’ve been working on git. We decided to fully backport them in order to keep the 1.7.x tree clean and fixed.
Download Icinga and report any issues to our Dev Tracker, or use one of the support channels for your feedback.
Thanks for using Icinga 🙂
