What is new in version 3.7.7:

What is new in version 3.7.6:

• Minor feature enhancements, Minor bugfixes
• enhancement Support for PCI attached storage (new in OMSA 7.0.0) was added.
• enhancement Support was added for negative temperature readings and thresholds from temp probes.
• bugfix Fix for physical disk check. If a disk was marked as predictive failure, and also had other failure conditions of a more severe nature, check_openmange only reported the predictive failure state. This has been fixed so that the most severe failure takes precedence.
• enhancement The iDRAC6 and iDRAC7 controllers was identified via SNMP using integer values that are not defined in the MIB. This resulted in internal error warnings if the '-o' option was used. The plugin now defines these integer identifiers even though they are undocumented in the MIB.
