Highlighted Additions

New Service: MonitorWare Echo Reply service has been added and it ensures that always a fresh probe of the remote WinySyslog service is done.
Write to Database Action: This action has been totally rewritten and now provides more flexibility. Almost everything is customizable and fine-tunable to exact customer needs. For the SystemEventProperties table, a “Maximum value length” can be set for text fields. This allows the truncation of large text fields.
Start Program Action: Now it supports the property replacer, it means that the parameter-passing is now much more powerful. Parameters can now be drawn from the full set of event properties. Of course, the previous format can also be selected if needed.
SETP Action: With new received timeout settings, it is possible to control how long a SETP session would be established. The big plus of these timeouts is that they can save considerable network overhead especially in the case of SSL-protected sessions.
Greatly enhanced Configuration Program: There are numerous helpful additions to the configuration program, like full copy & paste support for almost all functions now, new shortcut keys, persistent treeview display and much more.
Enhanced SETP client: SETP client has been enhanced and server allows compressed transmission modes and fine-tunable session timeout settings. This greatly improves SETP performance.
Compute Status Variable action: It is added with a new action to increment or decrement a status variable, basically for complex tasks. Currently the “NTServicemonitorAlerter & Recoverer” sample uses this action to implement a reminder.
SNMP Support: Greatly enhanced SNMP support makes MIB decoding and parsing fully supported.
SNMP Action: Ability to send SNMP traps upon detection of an event, ability to forward any message source as a SMTP trap and Syslog message forwarding via SNMP are also the part and parcel of new release.
