Nagios Looking Glass 1.0.2 in Beta-testing

[Andy Shellam (Mailing Lists)]

Nagios Looking Glass v1.0.2 Beta is available for download!

This is a call for testers to try out 1.0.2 before it is released.  The
reason being there have been massive performance improvements in the way
NLG gathers the data from Nagios, and I'm hoping people who couldn't get
1.0.1 or below working in large environments can test 1.0.2#Beta
successfully.

1.0.1 and below didn't display when there were more than 200 servers in
Nagios.
1.0.2#Beta takes 6-8 seconds to render 600 servers and 6000 services for
the first visit, and 1-2 seconds per subsequent visit (when status data 
is cached.)

It is available to download at
www.nagioslookingglass.co.uk/download.phpx#nlg_dev

The Important Bits
=== ========= ====

The official project site is: http://www.nagioslookingglass.co.uk
Get the latest release at: http://www.nagioslookingglass.co.uk/download.phpx

Available in Windows Zip, and Unix .tar.gz and .tar.bz2 formats.
(Beta versions available in Windows Zip only.)

To upgrade from a previous version, please see UPGRADING.TXT in the
distribution.

The Administrator Manual for 1.0.0#PRE still applies on the whole,
however the the "server/index" folder also needs write permissions by
the web server user on the Nagios server.

If you enforce PHP memory limits on the polling server (PHP compiled
with --enable-memory-limit), you may need to increase the default 8MB
memory limit in php.ini.  For 600 servers/6000 metrics, NLG needs 48MB
allocating.

More Detail
==== ======

NLG is a Web-2.0 browser-based application that works in Firefox, IE,
Safari and Konqueror.  It shows visitors the status of your network
without giving them access to the Nagios CGIs, and starts at a "network
summary" view with the options to drill down into servers (hosts) and
their metrics (services).

NLG can easily be customised to match your company's look and feel, and
is ideal for hosting companies who run Nagios.

For the full changelog for this version, please see the CHANGELOG.TXT
file in the distribution, or visit:

Please see the 'Support' section on the NLG project website to see the
best way to report bugs / request new features etc.
