NetXMS Support Forum

Всем добрый день! Я решил попробовать свести воедино все планы и идеи по развитию системы, чтобы и самому не забыть, и комментарии услышать.

В ближайшее время планируется выпустить версию 0.2.20. В нее войдет:

• Возможность продвинутой корреляции событий с использованием "ситуаций"
• Функциональность "proxy node" для DCI
• Макросы в шаблонах DCI
• Поддержка UNICODE в клиентской части на UNIX
• Обновленный Alarm Viewer
• Различные мелкие исправления и улучшения

Постараюсь учесть как можно больше уже высказанных пожеланий, но в основном небольших. Если у кого-то есть простые в реализации пожелания, которые очень хотелось бы видеть в новом релизе, пишите.

Версия 0.2.20 планируется быть последней в ветке 0.2.x. Если все будет в порядке, то я собираюсь ее пригладить и выпустить версию 1.0.0. После зтого разработка должна разделиться на две ветки - stable 1.0.x и development 1.1.x. Основные большие изменения будут происходить в 1.1.x.

Основные планы на 1.1.x следующие:
1. Новая консоль - модульная и кросс-платформенная (прототип уже можно будет увидеть в 0.2.20);
2. Нормальные карты сети - топологии 2 и 3 уровня, а так-же user-defined;
3. web interface (уже очень давно пора);
4. Полноценная работа с логами NetXMS (event log, syslog, audit log);
5. Обработка лог-файлов на хостах;
6. Улучшение network discovery;
7. Ну и в соответствии с пожеланиями и предложениями сообщества.
