This Week in OpenNMS: September 12th, 2016

      It's time for This Week in OpenNMS!

In the last week we worked on data collection, the Minion, the topology
UI, provisioning, web UI cleanup, SNMP, roles and authentication, and
the OSGi plugin manager.



      Github Project Updates

  *

    *Data Collection*

    Jesse improved the datacollection APIs and modernized the HTTP,
    JDBC, JMX, NSClient, TCA, VMware, WMI, and XML collectors.

  *

    *Minion*

    Pradeep, Pavan, and Seth worked on JMX collection in the minion.
    Dustin improved the minion's heartbeat support as well as the
    handling of node location changes.

  *

    *Topology UI*

    Jesse changed the edge path drawing to use quadratic bezier curves
    to improve the visibility when there are multiple links.

  *

    *Provisioning*

    Christian has been working on support for minion requisition
    creation. Chandra added support for querying DNS from the minion's
    point-of-view and integrated support for that into Provisiond.

  *

    *Web UI Cleanup*

    Alejandro did more work on the GWT to Angular conversion in the web
    UI, fixing unit tests and asset page access, as well as improving
    report search and KSC ReST access. He also cleaned up user role
    editing to be clearer, and fixed marker-cluster rendering in the
    geomaps.

  *

    *SNMP*

    Seth worked on some low-level SNMP API code for improved handling of
    SNMP4J PDUs. Jeff fixed the display of some SNMP trap and sysName data.

  *

    *Roles and Authentication*

    Alejandro did some work on obsoleting |magic-users.properties|,
    merging it into |users.xml|. (Editor's note: "WHOOOOOO!")

  *

    *OSGi Plugin Manager*

    Craig fixed the plugin loader to make sure the license manager is
    loaded first. He also added support for handling alarm memo changes.
