OpenNMS On the Horizon – September 9th, 2019 – Flows, CI, Threshd, UI Fixes, and More!

Github Project Updates

• Internals, APIs, and Documentation
  • Matt updated the sFlow adapter to set the sequence number.

  • Dustin continued his work making the meta-data DSL work with the PageSequenceMonitor.
  • I worked on refactoring some common shell code to a separate project, and making it so Minion and Sentinel can launch differently depending on JVM.

  • Matt continued his work on persisting and sharing Threshd configuration.
  • Marcel worked on splitting up the default JMX datacollection config into separate files.
