WatchZit 1.4.0 adds checks without an agent, a network path history and alerts that learn what is normal.
Install or update: VM images (OVA, qcow2, VHDX, ISO) or install.sh — see the README. A running console offers the update under Settings → Updates and server; agents update themselves.
New
- Linux over SSH and Windows over WinRM, without an agent: CPU, memory, swap, the fullest disk, uptime (Linux also load). SSH takes a password or a private key and trusts the host key on first use; a changed key turns the check down and shows the new fingerprint. WinRM works over HTTP (5985, encrypted with NTLM) and HTTPS (5986, with channel binding). The usual CPU, memory and disk triggers and forecasts cover them.
- Network path (traceroute): probes every hop to a destination, records the round-trip time and loss per hop for 30 days, shows the last ten path changes and names the hop where loss begins. New trigger "Loss on the network path". Works on the console and on Linux and Windows agents and remote collectors.
- Value unusual for the time (learned): a trigger that learns the usual value of a metric for each hour of the week from the last 28 days and alerts when it is unusually high, low or either, with three sensitivities. It starts after 7 days of history.
Security
- SAML sign-in checks every response before the SAML library reads it (GO-2026-6909: assertions must carry an issuer and a subject, artifacts are refused, a parser panic becomes a refused sign-in).
Fixes
- Turkish: "Arrange" on the map editor is no longer the same word as "Edit".
