These are public release notes for ProTop 326. They include changes, fixes, and additions to the client-side code that monitors your OpenEdge resources and sends metric data and alerts to your ProTop portal.
| Feature | Added support for API keys for portal communication. |
| Feature | Improved the monitoring of Pro2 queue status. Added visibility for the cdcadmin queue when CDC is in use. Updated the data-sharing between the cdcq and pro2qmon data collectors. |
| Feature | Added support for the local definition of special key mappings (comma-prefixed command keys for ProTop RT) via file etc/keys.local.cfg. |
| Feature |
Added detail counters for classic App Server status values: Starting, Receiving, Connecting, Connected, Running, Limbo. These can be found in alert.cfg. Also added the capability for translation of these values.
|
| Feature | Added logging to dc/pasoe.p at dbgMode >= 4 to write pseudo-curl commands and record JSON responses for OEM err responses. Use echo 4 > tmp/protop.name.dbg or tmp/pt3agent.name.dbg to enable it. This works for ProTop RT and pt3agent. |
| Feature |
Added logging in dc/pasoe.p at dbgMode >= 3 to write pseudo-curl commands and record JSON responses written to $TMPDIR/pasoe.<shortname>.details.
|
| Feature | Added a dbgMode >= 5 for "unknown response type" in the socket code. |
| Feature |
Added German translation for classic app server, including support for dd.mm.yyyy date formatting; added translation file estub/translate.cfg.german.
|
| Feature |
Updated the protermcap to improve the visibility of INPUT fields with PuTTY, split xterm color definitions from the base xterm definition, and created an xterm-mono variation.
|
| Feature |
Updated the default output directory so that when utilities and reports run stand-alone, they will use ProTop directories if the environment variables are set.
|
| Feature |
Added the environment variable UPLOADUIO=yes|no. If not set to "yes" it suppresses the upload of tt_uio (_UserIO data) to the portal. This allows the userIOActivity data collector to be enabled in pt3agent.cfg, thus populating related alert enhancers without sending ridiculous amounts of data to the portal.
|
| Feature |
Fixed the startup process to honor the usual cfg file hierarchy for logmon. Also added an optional “friendlyName” parameter to bin/logmon.sh so that both logmon.cfg & log_*.cfg can be fine-grained and multiple instances (with distinct names) can be run.
|
| Feature | Added support for "script" alerts to util/logmon.p. |
| Feature | Added the diskfree alert enhancer to dc/df.p. |
| Feature | Added support for portal port, options, and proxy settings to util/maintenance.p. |
| Feature | Changed the log monitors' nag checks to be specific to the monitored log file. |
| Feature |
Added headers to portal messages to aid in detecting cloned servers and/or cloned ProTop installs so we can detect when multiple agents may be updating the same resource.
|
| Feature | Added support for Consultingwerk's Service Telemetry. |
| Feature |
Added monochrome xterm option to support putty and SecureCRT better. Set your terminal to xterm-256color in your emulator settings (SecureCRT: Terminal > Emulation > Advanced > Terminal Type) to use ProTop colors or e.g. set TERM=xterm-256color in your .bash_profile
|
| Bug fix | We fixed the logic in config.p so we can correctly parse the tainted flags in the master block to detect a failed idxbuild state. |
| Bug fix | Fixed a typo in the definition of the INPUT color in protermcap.protop. |
| Bug fix |
Fix for the file handle leak in dbmonitor.p/pt3clean.p. pt3clean.p no longer stops and restarts dbmonitor. Also, some ProTop log deletions only happen when they are older than 14 days to aid debugging.
|
| Bug fix | Updated the ProTop help URL in the help screen in ProTop RT. |
| Bug fix | Fixed a bug that prevented syncio.bat from working (in ProTop 326-preview3 and later). |
| Bug fix | Improved error handling to deal with data collectors that are defined but missing. |
| Bug fix | Adjusted the column width for the zResourceDetails alert enhancer "Resource" column. |
| Bug fix | Accommodate overstuffed character field in the alert context. |
| Bug fix | Made improvements to the fileio data collector performance. |
| Bug fix | Added some context variables so that webget can follow the hierarchy. |
| Bug fix | Improved error handling for invalid HTTP responses. |
| Bug fix | Added some missing key definitions to protermcap.protop. |
| Bug fix |
We added the "raw" argument to LENGTH() functions in HTTP response handling to size strings going into MEMPTRs properly, allowing us to handle multi-byte characters.
