Icinga PowerShell Framework

This PowerShell module will allow to fetch data from Windows hosts and use them for inventory and monitoring solutions. Together with the Icinga Web 2 module, a detailed overview of your Windows infrastructure will be drawn.

Release Icinga for Windows v1.7.1

1.7.1 (2021-11-11)

Issue and PRs

Bugfixes

  • #398 Fixes String.Builder object output, while creating new components by using New-IcingaForWindowsComponent
  • #399 Fixes repository file hash generator, which now only includes .zip and .msi files, which otherwise turned into invalid hashes because of the repository index file always changing based on the assigned hash
  • #401 Fixes the repository manager by now using Icinga WebRequests instead of Windows WebRequests, allowing the usage of the internal proxy feature

Fixing Repository Sync-Issues:

Before you can upgrade to v1.7.0 or v1.7.1 and you are using the repository sync and repositories, you will have to sync the repository by using the -ForceTrust argument first, as otherwise the older versions will fail on the same step by validating the hashes. If you want to stay secure and do not wish to force the trust of the repository, you can manually apply the patch for the Icinga for Windows environment you want to run the sync from. Once applied, simply run the following command

icinga -RebuildCache;

and start the sync process from this new shell.
