Things to Watch for when Upgrading to 5.5.x
Posted: Fri Sep 28, 2018 6:17 am
I've upgraded pretty much all of my hosts to 5.5.x now, there are some bugs / changes that I cant see anywhere in the Documentation but I thought I'd put them in here to help people who fall into the same issues
5.5.2 - Recurring downtime Services with wildcards do not work
5.5.3 - Critical Escalations do not work
5.5.4 - Recovery Escalations do not work
These commands get overwritten/reverted to default-
check_esx3_host
check_xi_service_snmp_linux_load
check_xi_service_snmp_linux_process
check_xi_service_snmp_linux_storage
So if you have changed any of these to a custom command be prepared to revert them after upgrade
