OI Connector 3.4.0-3.9.0
- Releases include third-party library upgrades.
OI Connector 3.3.0
- 3rd party library upgrades - Spring, jackson, jetty, apache commons, etc
OI Connector 3.2.0
- 3rd party library upgrades (spring/jetty)
- Modified installer to use kafka-installer merge module which tests to make sure kafka is accessible (we no longer ship kafka with the connector - customer needs to download and install NetOps Kafka or provide their own kafka instance)
- Set compiled code to be java 11
- Use netops kafka sdk for creation of the topic used for sending log events to NetOps
OI Connector 3.1.0
- Numerous 3rd party and internal library upgrades to address vulnerabilities reported by Blackduck
- Updated installer to no longer provide a kafka installation - the user is instead required to have pre-installed kafka using either an apache downloaded package, or preferably our NetOps Kafka package (available from our customer support download page alongside the rest of NetOps release).
OI Connector 3.0.0
- NFA/ADA integration has been removed - NFA and ADA metrics will no longer be harvested and sent by the connector
- The connector has been upgraded to use version 1.4.49 of the supportability jar
- The connector will attempt to use the Reactive NASS Client to ingest metrics into NASS. If the React support is not available on the OI server the connector will fall back to REST ingestion.
- Spring and other 3rd party library upgrades to address vulnerabilities
- The connector delays the consumption of metrics from the kafka bus until the first PM inventory harvest has been completed. This prevents loss of metrics on restart of the connector but results in a longer delay between when the connector is launched and metrics start flowing to OI.
- Internal code changes have been made to improve the memory utilization of the connector - we are now able to successfully run the connector with 16GB heap on our poda performance test environment. (This is a 1/3 reduction in heap requirements).
