[Perfparse-users] Final release for the weekend.

[Ben C. <Be...@cl...>]

Final release for the weekend.  Had a few problems, now sorted.  This 
release is good!

Versions 0.99.01 to 0.99.05 suffer a risk of not importing data, for a 
number of reasons.  I would advise upgrading to this version.

This release filled a big hole:

A big hole is PP to date:-  The Nagios States (OK, WARNING, CRITICAL, 
UNKNOWN) were not imported.  They are now successfully parsed, stored 
and used on all Raw Reports.  Including the new Gant chart.  Thanks 
again to Yves.

There is a small fix needed.  Please edit nagios.cfg, find the line:

xpdfile_service_perfdata_template=$TIMET$\t$HOSTNAME$\t$SERVICEDESC$\t$OUTPUT$\t$PERFDATA$

And please change to:

xpdfile_service_perfdata_template=$TIMET$\t$HOSTNAME$\t$SERVICEDESC$\t$OUTPUT$\t$SERVICESTATE$\t$PERFDATA$

Which has the new macro $SERVICESTATE$ near the end of the line.

This is required for this version :)

In more detail:  The state is stored and used.  Older data from before 
this fix will still 'guess' the correct state from the text output of 
the plugin.  Recent data from this version onwards will use true correct 
state.

Thanks for all the feedback, please keep us informed of any problems.

Regards,

Ben
