New features

Security vulnerability monitoring

A set of features that allow us to monitor the security of our systems, supervising what installed applications are vulnerable. For that, data are cross-referenced with those from the inventory of each agent and also agents are remotely checked, to find out which applications are listening on the network. If offers a summary graph with all the vulnerabilities by agent.

Pandora FMS - Release 774Pandora FMS uses a known vulnerability database, using CVE, NVD and other public databases.

New tactical screen

Together with important upgrades in system auto-monitoring, with dozens of new metrics, we designed a tactical screen that will display the information summary on the system status when logging in.

Pandora FMS - Release 774

New dashboards and hardening reports

It complements the security assessment configuration feature (hardening), added in the previous version. It offers general dashboards and reports perfect for working in the steady improvement of system security. These reports are ideal for internal audits, regulation compliance and internal security departments.

Pandora FMS - Release 774
Pandora FMS - Release 774

New tool: Graph analytics

It is a tool conceived for failure detection, compared analysis and pattern detection. It allows users to search and compare agent and module graphs. It is accessed through the side menu Operation → Reporting → Graph analytics.

Pandora FMS - Release 774The work of organizing the most important data and information can be saved through a filter and a public link can even be shared, moreover graphs can also be exported to section Custom graph.

Complex alerts

New feature to create new alert templates, which allow processing extraordinary calculations in addition to ordinary monitoring.

These complex alerts allow calculating the average or sum, or detecting the maximum and the minimum of the information monitored, such as for example receiving a warning when the CPU use percentage in a week exceeds the average.

Pandora FMS - Release 774
Pandora FMS - Proxmox

New plugin de discovery 2.0: Proxmox

Centralized version through Discovery 2.0 from the ProxMox Enterprise plugin that allows to retrieve data from the node API, backups, virtual machines, lxc containers and storage.

Service trees view in vertical format

Some of our clients asked for an alternate way to see services, since when there were lots of them, they were not displayed correctly, so we added another alternate way in which to display them:

Pandora FMS - Release 774

Version obsolescence management

Broadened the OS management system to be able to assign expiration dates to specific SO versions, so that not only specific searches can be carried out by certain SO versions, but also generate support expiration reports (End Of Lifesupport).

Pandora FMS - Release 774

New widget: Group Status Map

New widget that shows agent state and modules from a specific group in an interactive map in real time.

Pandora FMS - Release 774

New widget: Widget cloning

Usability improvement that enables cloning a widget within the same dashboard.

Pandora FMS - Release 774

Multiple selection in the visual console

A feature that was suggested for years and that we finally implemented. Now multiple elements can be selected to move them, resize them or delete them.

Notable improvements

Continuous System Security Monitoring (Hardening)

IT and cybersecurity professionals rely on system hardening to reduce the number of “open” doors that malicious actors can exploit. The Center for Internet Security (CIS) leads the development of international hardening standards and publishes securitization guidelines to improve your cybersecurity controls.

Pandora FMS uses the CIS recommendations to implement a security auditing system, integrated with monitoring to observe the evolution of security hardening throughout your organization, system by system. It supports Linux (different distros) and Windows systems (all versions).

CIS Categories audited by Pandora FMS

  • Hardware Asset Inventory and Control
  • Software Asset Inventory and Control
  • Continuous Vulnerability Management
  • Controlled Use of Administrative Privileges
  • Secure hardware and software configuration on mobile devices, laptops, workstations and servers
  • Maintenance, monitoring and analysis of audit logs
  • Email and web browser protection
  • Malware defenses
  • Port, protocol and network service limitation and control
  • Data recovery capabilities
  • Secure configuration of network devices such as firewalls, routers and switches
  • Boundary defense
  • Data protection
  • Controlled access on a need-to-know basis
  • Wireless access control
  • Account monitoring and control
  • ACL System

These categories add up to more than 1500 individual checks to ensure the security of the systems managed by Pandora FMS. Not all of them are applicable in a system, but there are checks to verify if they apply or not.

Welcome wizard / Configuration wizard

The welcome wizard has been upgraded with rich, effective and fast features to help set up a new environment just right with the most common items to monitor. It also helps you to verify that your Pandora FMs is properly configured and working.
Pandora FMS Welcome wizard
Pandora FMS Welcome wizard
This wizard is accessible through the Configuration → Wizard configuration menu.
Pandora FMS Welcome wizard

NetFlow widget

By choosing a filter and a time interval, it is possible to select one among several representations, as in Live view:

  • Area graph.
  • Circular mesh.
  • Data table.
  • Detailed host graphic.
  • Summary.
  • Top-N connections.

Agent Hives Widget

A grid with items is shown, which contains the agent name, the operating system icon, and the general state of the agent in a colored stripe on the left. Click on any item in the box to go to the agent detail view, or click the wheel to access the editing view.
Pandora FMS Agent hive

Policy management from the agent detail view

Now seeing and managing is possible: adding, deleting and seeing the policies an agent is participating in.
Pandora FMS Agent hive

Sound alerts integrated into the console (and the Metaconsole)

Now the event console can work in two different modes: either embedded into the view or minimized in the event view as a pop-up window. This allows you to work with events while you will keep receiving sound alerts in the background. You may also leave a separate window in the background and work with other sections.
Pandora FMS Agent hive

Discovery 2.0

Although it makes no difference with the previous version visually, it implements a new way to add centralized monitoring wizards with automatic discovery. These wizards can be uploaded/downloaded from our plugin library (and therefore be created by anyone) through .disco files.

In time we will migrate lots of server plugins and specific monitoring like WUX (transactional WEB monitoring) to Discovery 2.0. This is just the first step to a major change.
Pandora FMS Agent hive
In future updates we will allow to migrate current setups to those of the new Discovery in a transparent way and soon there will be new applications in the new Discovery section.

New queued alert detail view

Now it is possible to see the detailed list of alerts yet to be executed, showing the Alert server queue in detail.

Notable improvements

Continuous System Security Monitoring (Hardening)

IT and cybersecurity professionals rely on system hardening to reduce the number of “open” doors that malicious actors can exploit. The Center for Internet Security (CIS) leads the development of international hardening standards and publishes securitization guidelines to improve your cybersecurity controls.

Pandora FMS uses the CIS recommendations to implement a security auditing system, integrated with monitoring to observe the evolution of security hardening throughout your organization, system by system. It supports Linux (different distros) and Windows systems (all versions).

CIS Categories audited by Pandora FMS

  • Hardware Asset Inventory and Control
  • Software Asset Inventory and Control
  • Continuous Vulnerability Management
  • Controlled Use of Administrative Privileges
  • Secure hardware and software configuration on mobile devices, laptops, workstations and servers
  • Maintenance, monitoring and analysis of audit logs
  • Email and web browser protection
  • Malware defenses
  • Port, protocol and network service limitation and control
  • Data recovery capabilities
  • Secure configuration of network devices such as firewalls, routers and switches
  • Boundary defense
  • Data protection
  • Controlled access on a need-to-know basis
  • Wireless access control
  • Account monitoring and control

These categories add up to more than 1500 individual checks to ensure the security of the systems managed by Pandora FMS. Not all of them are applicable in a system, but there are checks to verify if they apply or not.

Welcome wizard / Configuration wizard

The welcome wizard has been upgraded with rich, effective and fast features to help set up a new environment just right with the most common items to monitor. It also helps you to verify that your Pandora FMs is properly configured and working.

NetFlow widget

By choosing a filter and a time interval, it is possible to select one among several representations, as in Live view:

  • Area graph.
  • Circular mesh.
  • Data table.
  • Detailed host graphic.
  • Summary.
  • Top-N connections.

Agent Hives Widget

A grid with items is shown, which contains the agent name, the operating system icon, and the general state of the agent in a colored stripe on the left. Click on any item in the box to go to the agent detail view, or click the wheel to access the editing view.
Pandora FMS Agent hive

Policy management from the agent detail view

Now seeing and managing is possible: adding, deleting and seeing the policies an agent is participating in.
Pandora FMS Agent hive

Sound alerts integrated into the console (and the Metaconsole)

Now the event console can work in two different modes: either embedded into the view or minimized in the event view as a pop-up window. This allows you to work with events while you will keep receiving sound alerts in the background. You may also leave a separate window in the background and work with other sections.
Pandora FMS Agent hive

Discovery 2.0

Although it makes no difference with the previous version visually, it implements a new way to add centralized monitoring wizards with automatic discovery. These wizards can be uploaded/downloaded from our plugin library (and therefore be created by anyone) through .disco files.

In time we will migrate lots of server plugins and specific monitoring like WUX (transactional WEB monitoring) to Discovery 2.0. This is just the first step to a major change.
Pandora FMS Agent hive
In future updates we will allow to migrate current setups to those of the new Discovery in a transparent way and soon there will be new applications in the new Discovery section.

New queued alert detail view

Now it is possible to see the detailed list of alerts yet to be executed, showing the Alert server queue in detail.

Pandora FMS NG 772 LTS “Renaissance” https://pandorafms.com/en/release-notes/pandora-fms-ng-772-lts-renaissance/ Mon, 26 Jun 2023 11:26:30 +0000 https://pandorafms.com/uncategorized/pandora-fms-ng-772-lts-renaissance/ The post Pandora FMS NG 772 LTS “Renaissance” appeared first on Pandora FMS.

]]>
These release notes describe the new features, improvements, and bugs fixed in Pandora FMS NG 772 LTS, also known as Renaissance.

Regular versions (RRR) are monthly versions that bring together many changes and new features. They are ideal for those users who need to be up to date and are not afraid to find some unpolished detail. LTS versions are aimed at consolidating all changes of the RRR versions and offering maximum stability. The previous LTS is  version 767 called Hope.

For more information on previous versions, visit the version notes section on our website. For information on minimum system requirements, please visit the installation section of our official documentation .

Notable improvements

Dozens of new features have been implemented since the previous LTS. Below, we list the most relevant ones that have been incorporated into Renaissance. It should be noted that version 772 itself does not include any further improvements from version 771, but focuses on bug fixes.

Improved security of credential storage

From version 768 Pandora FMS encrypts user password hashing using the CRYPT_BLOWFISH algorithm.

New dashboard widget: Data Matrix

In version 768, a new widget called “Data Matrix” has been added. This widget allows you to represent the values of the selected modules in an array.
Pandora FMS data matrix

Command Center Sound Alerts

Release 768 added the feature of setting up audible alerts in the Command Center, similar to that of nodes.

New visual console indicator: Orange frame

In release 768, we recover the feature from version 6 that consists of the ability to display an orange frame around certain elements of the visual console when the agent or module has an alert activated. In addition, recursive elements have been added that reflect the status of another visual console.

Custom filters for monitor view

In version 769, we added custom filters to the monitors view, which can be saved and retrieved by the user. These filters are similar to the custom filters used in events.

Custom filters for log viewer (audit viewer)

Like the custom event filter, a filter has been implemented in the audit event viewer that allows you to load searches and filter by user, action, source IP address, and comments.

New manual installer

Although the automatic installation method has reduced its use, we decided to start the renewal of the interface from its base, so we fully renewed the manual installer.

New Interface

In version 770, we initiated a global and significant change. It is not only about giving the console a new look, but a complete transformation in usability: menus, filters, listings, and forms among others. Since it is such a radical change, we decided to release it two versions before the LTS to fix the inevitable flaws that arise from this revolution.

Both Pandora FMS and the Command Center have experienced these changes, from the home screens to each of the system screens.

NetFlow monitoring

In 770 we added a new way to create monitoring data by applying NetFlow filters to get information. This allows for example, to identify when traffic exceeds forecasts and show the list of the ten IPs with the highest traffic in each flow. You may also set up real-time alerts on traffic volume, generate reports and create specific graphs for each defined filter.

Choose the server that executes a scheduled task

In 770 we added the possibility of selecting which server should execute a specific recognition task if there are several Discovery servers, which will allow you to ensure load distribution when necessary.

New HA system

With version 770, we launched a new database HA system for the database that allows Pandora FMS to be 100% geographically distributed. The redundant database nodes can be on different networks, separated by many kilometers. The new High Availability (HA) system 100% integrated into the interface is managed right away from the console, enabling the “switchover” feature and automatically detecting events such as failures and synchronizations.

It is even capable of overcoming a “split brain” event with a subsequent merging of data from locations that continued working, even after de-synchronization. This ensures that Pandora FMS continues operating independently, even in the event of a general network outage.

The new system can be selected in the setup and completely replaces the old system, getting rid of the need to use third-party solutions such as corosync and pacemaker. This greatly simplifies its operation.

Pandora FMS new HA

Support for the sFlow protocol

In version 770, the sFlow protocol is added to the NetFlow® protocol in real-time network flow analysis tasks.

Improved agent search system

In version 770 we improved the search system, to also use the custom fields of the agent, operating system and any custom field. These filters can be loaded/retrieved, making navigation between data much more convenient and customizable.

Favorite system

In version 770 we added a favorite system, so that certain elements of the view, such as an agent view, group view, visual console, dashboard, or report, can be flagged as favorites and can be viewed in a new menu section.

Pandora FMS favorites

New group tactical view

In version 770 we added a new group summary view that allows to better see the details of each group when there are several.

Pandora FMS new tactical view

“Event cardboard” widget

In version 770 we added a colored card widget, with an event count, both in the nodes and in Command Center (Metaconsole), according to filtering rules based on type of events, event status, criticality and/or severity, groups, etc. (and by servers and/or nodes if requested by the Command Center).

Event cardboard

Heatmap widget

In version 770 we added a widget, similar to the “Heatmap” view, which embeds in a variable size widget the information in pixel maps of the state of groups, agents or modules previously filtered by group.

Pandora FMS heatmap widget

New average value/max/min widget

In version 770 we added a new widget that shows the average (AVG), maximum (MAX) or minimum (MIN) value of a module, as well as the SUM (SUM) of an incremental type module. These values can be displayed along with your measure unit and a descriptive label in a given time period (by default, the last 30 days).

Welcome tips system

In version 770, a system of welcome tips was implemented, short messages that are displayed when logging into PFMS web console (Welcome tips). Those tips can be completely customized to include service tips offered with Pandora FMS to users or customers and supports multi-language.

Welcome tips system

“Modules by status” widget

In version 770 the “Modules by status” widget was added showing the modules according to their status, sorted according to their last status change, showing first the most recent ones.
Modules by status

Simple graph widget

In version 771 we added another widget to the dashboard, which shows a simplified graph of any monitored metrics. Both the color and the size of each element are configurable:
Pandora FMS Widget Basic Chart

New agent deployment wizard

In version 771 we added an agent installation wizard, so that an inexperienced user can easily deploy agents in Windows, Linux or Mac environments.

Custom filters for the log viewer

In version 771, as in events, modules and audits, it is now possible to save a filter and reuse it. This filter can also be used in log reports.

New welcome message on Web console

Replacing the message that had been with us for more than four years and adding a pinch of poetry in the IT world.

  • G2 is the world´s largest software marketplace offering their services to all
    Fortune 500 companies
  • The technology company has achieved three third positions, reinforcing the
    good ratings of the sector in its monitoring systems
  • Pandora FMS is present in a total of 79 reports, and in ten of them it is found
    at the top 10
  • Madrid, 31 March 2023.- The technology company Pandora FMS has received recognition from
    the prestigious marketplace G2. The company appears in 79 of the reports submitted, which gives
    them a high rating based on the opinion of millions of specialists. Just to show the importance of G2, all Fortune 500 companies use it as a means of hiring software, as do 60% of Forbes Cloud 100
    companies.

    Pandora FMS appears in a total of 79 of these reports. In addition, in three of the sections it appears in, it is in third position. Specifically in the analyses of Rate Index for business monitoring, Mid- market Usability Index for business monitoring and Usability Index for business supervision. An overall score that the company calls an “unwavering commitment” for offering “high-performance” solutions.

    To those three third places, we must add the presence among the ten best companies in seven
    other categories of the report prepared by G2. Pandora FMS is at the top 10 of both the previous
    sections as well as these:

    • Index of Business Results for Business Monitoring
    • Usability Index for Small Businesses for Application Performance Monitoring (APM)
    • Business Ratio Index for Business Monitoring
    • Ratio Index for Server Monitoring
    • Mid-market Ratio Index for Business Monitoring
    • Ratio Index for Log Monitoring
    • Small-Business Grid® Report for Business Monitoring

    The report prepared by G2 also awards 27 badges to Pandora FMS and &quot;excellent&quot; ratings in satisfaction and features in Enterprise Monitoring. Among others, 94% highlight the ease of doing business and compliance with requirements, and 98% point out that the product goes in the right direction.

    The technology developed by the company, according to some of the evaluations expressed by G2,
    works “in devices where all others fail”. The incident map created by the company “detects network failures, unexpected application shutdowns or bandwidth problems”, allowing you to “control everything” from the same computer.

    In addition, based on the opinions of the professionals at G2, Pandora FMS is able to cope with data management in companies with more than 1,000 employees, supporting equally both small and medium-sized companies.

    “We are delighted to receive this recognition from G2. It is a validation of our team´s efforts and hard work to deliver exceptional monitoring solutions and meet the needs of our customers”, explains Kornelia Konstantinova, Chief Marketing Officer at Pandora FMS.

    The recognition of G2 and its customers on Pandora FMS technology reinforces Spain&#39;s potential in the sector, becoming a reference in monitoring system creation at an international level.

    About Pandora FMS:
    Pandora FMS is the total monitoring solution, which allows you to see and measure all kinds of
    technologies no matter where they are: Cloud, SaaS, virtualization or on-premise: a flexible solution that unifies data display for full organization-wide observability.

    We start off with a global and very important change. It is not just a new look but rather a whole interface revamp including menus, filters, lists and forms that particularly affects usability. Since such dramatic changes were made, we wanted them to be released two versions prior to the LTS one, to smoothen out the unavoidable bugs arising from such a revolution for the product.

    Those changes apply to the whole Pandora FMS, including the Command Center, from home screens to each and every one of the screens shown by the system. It should be noted that the home page has new options (such as rotative backgrounds, configurable opacity and its different white color version, compared to the dark mode).

    Dashboard and PDF report visuals have been specifically revised so that the enhancements affect all of Pandora FMS areas.

    Netflow monitoring

    A new general configuration feature will allow you to enter data coming from applying netflow filters on traffic in real time as monitoring data. It will also enable finding out when the traffic exceeds what was foreseen as well as showing the top 10 list of the IPs with the most traffic in each flow. This allows assigning alerts in real time based on the traffic volume, creating reports and specific graphics for each defined filter.

    Choosing the server that executes a scheduled task

    In case of having lots of recognition tasks and having a Discovery server cluster, from now on you may choose which server you want to execute a specific recognition task and therefore make sure the load is evenly distributed if needed.

    New HA system

    With version 770 we launch a new HA system for the database that allows Pandora FMS to be 100% distributed geographically. The database redundant nodes can be in different networks, separated by a long distance. The new 100% interface-integrated HA system is managed right away from the console (switchover) and detects automatically events such as failures, synchronizations and even allows overcoming a split brain event with the ensuing merging of data from locations that kept on working even after their desynchronization, which makes Pandora FMS keep working independently even after a global network fallout.

    The new system can be selected in the setup and fully replaces the old system, not using third-party software solutions such as corosync and pacemaker, dramatically simplifying its operation.

    Pandora FMS new HA system

    Support for the sFlow protocol

    In version 770 the sFlow protocol works together with the NetFlow® protocol in specialized network device monitoring, given its similarities.

    Its activation and configuration is carried out by means of the general settings and shares its display in a separate and differentiated way in the menu Monitoring -> Network.

    Pandora FMS sFlow protocol

    Improved agent search system

    Now it is possible to look for agent custom filters, operating system and many more fields thanks to filters. Said filters can be loaded/recovered, making data navigation much easier and customizable.

    Pandora FMS new agent filters

    Favorites system

    Certain display elements (agent view, group view, visual console, dashboard or report) can be checked as favorites and displayed in a new menu section.

    Pandora FMS favorites

    New group tactical view

    The new group summary view allows you to better see the details from each group when there are several of them:

    Pandora FMS new tactical view

    Additional indexes in the database

    New indexes have been added to the database, particularly useful for very large environments with lots of data. Although indexes add very little additional work in databases when saving records, they streamline queries, which are always frequent and repetitive. These new indexes improve Pandora FMS performance.

    Event cardboard widget

    It allows to obtain event counting, both in the nodes and in the Command Center (Metaconsole), according to filtering rules based on type of events, event status, criticality and/or severity, groups, etc. (and by servers and/or nodes if requested by the Command Center).

    Filtros personalizados para log viewer

    Widget Heatmap

    Similar to the Heatmap view, it allows embedding in a variable-size widget information in pixel maps on the status of groups, agents or modules that have been previously filtered by group.

    Pandora FMS heatmap widget

    Avg|Sum|Max|Min Module data widget

    It displays the average, maximum or minimum value (AVG, MAX, MIN) of a module or the sum (SUM) of an incremental module, accompanied or not by its measurement Unit and descriptive label in a time period (by default the last 30 days).

    Nuevo instalador manual

    Welcome tips system

    Tips are short messages, accompanied or not by a web link to get more details on the advice shown when logging into PFMS web console (Welcome tips). Within this version you may also find a set of tips by default that can be modified by the administrator. Specific messages may also be created for the organization, made up by a message (multi language) and an image.

    You may set the language of each one of them and edit them through a filter that allows you to search by keyword in the title of each tip.

    Through the Profile classification included in PFMS you may configure the welcome tips in the drop-down list in Profile, according to the profiles they are granted users they may or may not see them.

    Each user will be able to set their own user settings:

    Nuevo instalador manual

    Modules by status widget

    The Modules by status widget, both for nodes and for the Command Center (Metaconsole) allows to display modules by status (by default those in critical status) grouped by page (five by default). They are sorted by their Last status change, the most recent first, for example:

    Informix Pandora FMS plugin

    New feature for the plugin for VMware®

    Added snapshots taken from virtual machines to the plugin for VMware®. It is an Enterprise feature that has been improved and updated in Pandora FMS online library.

    Informix Pandora FMS plugin

    SingleStore plugin

    Since 2020, the SingleStore database engine (previously MemSQL) stopped focusing on speed based on the RAM memory to take an approach aimed at online storage (Cloud native), therefore becoming a powerful cluster database.

    This new Pandora FMS plugin for SingleStore works for both global monitoring (for example the maximum amount of connections, current connections, bytes sent and received through an agent for the database engine) as well as for monitoring each database (online database, connection, etc.).

    The SingleStore plugin for Pandora FMS is an Enterprise feature and can be downloaded from the online library, its specific documentation is available for everyone in Pandora FMS Guides.

    • Technology company Pandora FMS has developed this system with the advice of researchers from University Carlos III of Madrid.

    • The aim of the research was to develop a tool capable of monitoring large amounts of data and automatically adapting to each management environment.

    • This new technology will be unveiled at the ASLAN 2023 Congress & Expo in Madrid that will bring together the whole IT sector.

    Madrid, March 20, 2023.- A group of Spanish researchers have developed the new technology MADE, known as Monitoring Anomaly Detection Engine. The tool, powered by the technology company Pandora FMS with the advice of specialists in Artificial Intelligence of University Carlos III of Madrid, uses this cutting-edge technology to improve the data management of large companies and be able to alert in case of any unusual behavior. 

    AI also allows the system itself to adapt to scenarios based on the data history. That way, the monitoring technology goes a step further by giving enough capacity to Pandora FMS to automatically improve issue detection. The announcement comes ahead of the 30th edition of the ASLAN 2023 Congress & Expo held in the capital that will bring together the biggest brands in the tech sector, as well as authorities and technology investors.

    Monitoring systems are very common in different companies and public administrations. Its function is none other than to collect data in real time and allow more efficient management by sorting and processing it. The key with the use of Artificial Intelligence is that, despite the constant data collection, it is no longer a problem to adapt the rules of the system since it is done autonomously.

    “Before, monitoring had manual rule configuration so that the system understood what was right and what was wrong with great precision. But by increasing the size of the data, the scenario becomes more complex”, explains Sancho Lerena, CEO of Pandora FMS. “What AI does is provide sufficient capacity for the system to readjust to the dynamics of the data. That is, over time adapt its definition of anomaly to be able to detect them”, highlights the expert.

    MADE’s innovative technology is simple in its application, according to its developers. Thanks to the incorporation of Artificial Intelligence, the system takes into account variations related to the seasonality of the data, thus allowing predictions to be made that make decision-making easier. In addition, this model combines both the precision of manual configuration and the potential of automatic detection by algorithms.

    The ASLAN 2023 Congress & Expo that will be held in Madrid on March 22 and 23 will take into account this new tool developed by Spanish technological experts. MADE, as they indicate from Pandora FMS, is viable and reliable for companies from different economic sectors and is expected to change the dynamics of monitoring systems.

    This is a minor update with new functionalities and features. The latest version with maximum stability is Pandora FMS 767 HOPE LTS (Long Term Support).

    Regular releases (RRR) are monthly releases that bring together many changes and new functionalities. They are ideal for those users who need to be up to date and are not afraid of finding some unpolished detail. The LTS versions are oriented to consolidate all the changes of the RRR versions and offer maximum stability.

    Notable improvements

    Custom filters for monitor view

    Custom filters can be saved and retrieved in the monitor view, similar to event custom filters.

    Filtros personalizados para la vista de monitores

    Custom filters for log viewer (audit viewer)

    Similar to the event custom filter, a filter has been incorporated to load searches in the audit event viewer that allows it to filter by user, action, source IP address or comments.

    Filtros personalizados para log viewer

    Additional indexes in the database

    New indexes have been added to the database, especially useful for very large environments. Although indexes add very little additional work in databases when saving records, they speed up queries, which are always frequent and repetitive. These new indexes improve Pandora FMS performance.

    Event checkout from the event sound console

    Now it is possible to access events right away from the event sound console.

    New manual installer

    Although the automatic installation method is not frequently used, we wanted to revamp the interface from the very basics, so we fully renewed the manual installer.
