In the last couple of weeks we worked on internals, testing, the Minion,
and bug fixes. We also released OpenNMS Horizon 18.0.3, OpenNMS Meridian
2016.1.4, and OpenNMS Meridian 2015.1.4.
Github Project Updates
* *Internals and Testing*
Seth continued his work on handling full event queues more
gracefully. Alejandro enhanced the RRD stresser to make the RRAs
configurable. Jesse did more improvements to our WSMan support.
* *Minion*
Seth made the syslog and trapd queues configurable. He also added
support for forwarding non-persisted events to Elasticsearch. Jesse
fixed some issues with outages and datacollection failures from the
Minion on restart.
* *Bug Fixes*
We=E2=80=99ve been spending time fixing blockers and other bugs for 1=
9.0.0,
due early this year.
New Releases
*
OpenNMS Horizon 18.0.3 (Dugong)
<https://bit.ly/opennms-changes-18-0-3>
This release has been a long time coming, with tons of bug fixes
including a fix for a discovery/provisioning regression over Horizon =
17.
Notable Changes:
* fix for the duplicate node regression
* many improvements and fixes to SNMP graph definitions
* a number of GUI tweaks and fixes (event search, alarm details,
ops board colors, node link details)
* Newts fixes: improved Measurements API compatibility for
graphing, fixed retrying when Cassandra is unavailable
* better handling of invalid or unlikely SNMP error responses from
agents
* some fixes to JMX-related code (trap counters, the config
command-line tool)
* fixes to a number of crashes and exceptions in various
subsystems (BSMD, Enlinkd, SNMP)
* the JIRA ticketer now handles HTTPS properly and now supports
additional fields
* bug fixes and improvements to WS-MAN collection
For more details, see the complete Release Notes
<https://docs.opennms.org/opennms/releases/latest/releasenotes/releas=

fixes and enhancements that have been rolled into recent 18.x release=
