January, 5th 2016 - kit version 43
New features
- None, bug fixes only
...
- Number of CPUs displayed could be wrong if it was not forced in the configuration file, corrected. Warning: the number of CPUs displayed does represent the number defined in the configuration file or the default number of cpus for this hardware model. The real number of CPUs the virtual machine owns depends on the CHARON server HW limitations, licenses and also licenses on the virtual machine side
- Show host information HTML output did not correctly display the semicolon ';' character, corrected. The HTM file is now sent in zipped format
- CHARON setup (menu option 1) does not display 'ncu' as an emulator anymore
- Fixes a bug that prevented from gathering information from software licenses
- Expiration check: fixed an issue that could prevent from informational alerts to be sent with daily checks. Runtime limited licenses are now taken into account
- Disabled network interface will no more generate an alert at guest startup
- The install/upgrade/remove menu now handles CHARON-AXP V4.6 correctly
- Minor update information reported in the log when stopping a virtual machine
- Scheduled license expiration check: if the dongle is not present, the alert is sent once until the dongle is reconnected and no more each time the script is executed.
- Console log file view: fixed an issue that prevented from using 'gedit' in some cases (unreadable characters)
- Exit code issue found in expect script given as an example (in case of timeout for example)
- Main and backup licenses are now correctly handled: this affects license display menu option, expiration check that both will display and check all license detected (depends on CHARON version, "
hasp_srm_view -all" option must be available) and log monitoring alerts that will report the correct license number. - The expiration check script log file is now currently archived weekly
If the virtual machine ends with a "license has expired" message, this will be correctly reported in the alert
Expect script: Tru64 shutdown command replaced by "
init 0" as some old versions of Tru64 do not execute the shutdown scripts. Added also "send_slow" settings to prevent from losing characters while sending commands- License expiration checks: if multiple products have expired, only one alert email is sent instead of one per product
Known issues
- All described operations will have to be performed on the CHARON server and logged in as 'root' (no other user supported).
Virtual machines log monitoring: the log file name must be defined with full path within the configuration file. Rotating log files are not supported.
- Licenses updates: gathering information (c2v) and applying updates (v2c) cannot be performed when more than one dongle is connected to the Linux server.
