What’s New?
Firmware Upgrade in NCM
This release introduces the ability to perform firmware upgrades within NCM, streamlining device management. Users can now plan and execute firmware upgrades using NCM Explorer.
Support for Nutanix Devices
This release extends Motadata AIOps to support the monitoring of Nutanix infrastructure. Users can now effortlessly monitor Nutanix Prism, Nutanix Hosts, and Nutanix VMs, enabling better visibility into performance, resource utilization, and infrastructure optimization.
Hardware Details for NCM Devices
This release adds a Hardware Details tab to NCM, enabling users to directly fetch and view detailed hardware specifications within the platform.
Enhanced Health Monitoring
The Health Monitoring screen now includes two new tabs: Application, which provides JVM performance metrics and diagnostic data, and High Availability, offering insights into observer connections and sync statistics for high availability and disaster recovery deployments.
Interface Counters Update
We’ve updated the default monitoring templates to display interface traffic in bits per second. The counters for `interface.traffic.bytes.per.sec`, `interface.in.traffic.bytes.per.sec`, `interface.out.traffic.bytes.per.sec`, and `interface.speed.bytes.per.sec` have been replaced with `interface.traffic.bits.per.sec`, `interface.in.traffic.bits.per.sec`, `interface.out.traffic.bits.per.sec`, and `interface.speed.bits.per.sec`. The bytes per second counters remain available in the system but are no longer used in the default templates.
NCM Data Retention
NCM data retention can now be configured through the Data Retention settings, allowing users to set the retention duration for NCM versions with a minimum of 7, a default of 15, and a maximum of 90 versions. Note that any backup version set as a baseline cannot be deleted and will be retained even if it exceeds the configured retention settings.
Enable Logging for Deployment Artifacts
Users can now enable logging for each deployment artifact using the Enable Logging option available in the Deployment Settings Screen. This feature helps in tracking and auditing deployment activities more effectively.
Drill-Down Support for Availability and Alert Gauges in Dashboards
Users can now drill down into availability and alert gauges on the dashboard to view detailed information about the monitors displayed in the widgets. This enhancement provides deeper insights into monitor status and alert details directly from the dashboard.
Sound Notifications for Alerts
With this release, users can now receive sound notifications when alerts are triggered. Additionally, these sound notifications can be mapped to different alert severities, allowing for customizable and effective alert management.
Key-Value Tags as Columns in Monitor Screen
This update extends the feature of adding key-value-based tags as columns to the Monitor screen. Users can now select and display specific tags directly in the Monitor screen, enhancing the customization and visibility of monitored data for more detailed and flexible analysis.
Auto-Detected Bandwidth for Fortinet SD-WAN Routers
With this update, the bandwidth for Fortinet SD-WAN routers is now automatically detected, and traffic utilization is calculated based on this auto-detected bandwidth. This enhancement ensures more accurate monitoring and reporting of traffic utilization for SD-WAN environments.
Custom Branding for Alert Emails
Alert emails now support custom logos and branding, allowing for personalized integration of client-specific branding while maintaining existing functionality.
Bug Fixes
Agent Registration with Correct IP
The agent registration now accurately validates and registers the correct IP address, ensuring proper functionality across different deployment scenarios.
