MonitorWare Agent 15.3 Released

We have just released MonitorWare Agent 15.3, a significant update focused on modernizing configuration workflows, enhancing operational visibility, and providing early support for the next generation of Windows Server environments.

This release introduces YAML configuration support for service configuration files. By enabling file-based YAML configurations, MonitorWare Agent 15.3 allows IT teams to manage their agent fleets using industry-standard, human-readable formats. This is a major step forward for administrators looking to integrate MonitorWare Agent into automated deployment pipelines and “Configuration as Code” environments.

Operational monitoring also sees a major boost with the introduction of Runtime Metrics. Administrators can now enable a dedicated HTTPS query endpoint to pull real-time service metrics. This provides deep visibility into the agent’s internal performance and processing state, making it easier than ever to integrate MonitorWare health data into centralized monitoring dashboards.

For those preparing for the future of Windows infrastructure, version 15.3 includes specific improvements to the Event Monitor service, enhancing message fallback and custom-channel cleanup for Windows Server 2025.

MonitorWare Agent 14.4 released

Adiscon is proud to announce the 14.4 release of MonitorWare Agent.

In this recent update, a significant enhancement has been made to the Syslog Action. It now robustly prevents concurrent TCP connection establishment retries in the rare case of an action attempting to open multiple connections to the same target simultaneously. Additionally, we’ve improved error handling in situations where the connection fails and Syslog Caching is enabled; the action will now correctly retry the primary server once syslog caching has been activated, ensuring smooth operation even with a backup syslog server enabled.

We’ve also made corrections to the EventLog Monitor V2, specifically resolving an issue that could cause failure in processing an EventLog Message due to problems in XML-Stream Processing. Furthermore, in the Send Email action, we’ve addressed an issue where server multiline replies were not detected correctly, thereby strengthening the overall email communication process.

Our team has worked on refining the LogRotate feature, focusing on improved error reporting for situations when the feature is unavailable due to licensing constraints. In our continuous efforts towards enhancing stability, the Network Core’s performance during closing connections has been substantially upgraded.

With MonitorWare Agent 14.4, we remain dedicated to providing the highest level of security and stability to support your network monitoring needs.
