Thanks to Zenoss Community member Christopher Hubbard for providing a pair of new ZenPacks for monitoring PowerNet/MasterSwitch PDU/PCUs: PowerNet/MasterSwitch AP7930 and PowerNet/MasterSwitch AP9225.  The ZenPacks add a tab on the status page for showing the PDU controllers, outlet number, state, and host name (from the PDU perspective).

Thanks Chris!

In response to the thread Error Monitoring Virtual-Machines after upgrading 2.4.5 to 2.5, the VMware Virtual Machines ZenPack has been updated to load properly with Zenoss 2.5 and the hard-coded path issues have been corrected.  A bug in the sed call was also fixed.  Thanks to Dietmar Buck for his help in the thread and in IRC for getting this fixed.

Thanks,

Many thanks to Egor Puzanov for updating his ODBC DataSource ZenPack.  The ZenPack is now Zenoss 2.5-only because it has been rewritten as a zenperfodbc daemon.  This ZenPack is used as the basis for a number of ODBC database ZenPacks.

Thanks Egor!

Thanks again Egor!

Thanks to Zenoss Community member Egor Puzanov for updating his RDBMS Monitoring ZenPack.  This update includes a rewritten Report plugin using an AliasPlugin class and deleting the snmp modeler plugin.

Thanks Egor!

Thanks to Community member Nathan Elliott for sharing his new Event Histograms ZenPack.  This ZenPack provides templates that may be bound to your Zenoss server and other devices or device classes to show the history of events generated for those devices.  The All Devices template for the Zenoss server shows the rate of all events processed by Zenoss.  The Device Events template graphs individual device events.

Thanks Nathan!

Zenoss Community member Jürg Gerber has contributed his new Availability Per Group Report ZenPack.  This ZenPack provides a new report that shows the Availability for all devices within a selected Group.  It may be exported as CSV like the standard Availability report.

Thanks Jürg!

Thanks to Community member Richard Esteve for providing his new WMI MSSQL ZenPack.  This WMI Data Source-based ZenPacks provides a WMIPerfMSSQL template for monitoring Microsoft SQL Server.  The new template is available on the /Devices/Server/Windows device class and provides graphs for many MSSQL counters :

• Disk IOPS
• SQL User connections
• Locks
• SQL Transactions
• FullTableScans
• Cache Hit

Thanks Richard!
