Before you upgrade

Three changes need a look first.

  1. Synology is now read over SNMPv3. Collimo no longer signs in to DSM's web interface, so a line like synology https://192.168.1.30:5001 is refused after the upgrade, and Settings → Sources says why. Turn on SNMPv3 in DSM, change the line to the NAS's address without https:// and the port, set user= to the SNMP user, and put both passwords in the secret as <authentication password>:<privacy password>. Then delete the old administrator account in DSM: Collimo no longer needs it. Synology
  2. HUB_ENROL is now HUB_ENROLL. This only matters for a site that hasn't joined its hub yet; a site already enrolled needs neither. A 0.2.0 collector still enrolls with an older hub, and a 0.2.0 hub still accepts older collectors.
  3. Ceph alerts moved to the Storage tab. Their source is now storage, so a NOTIFY_RULES rule for storage now covers Ceph, and one for Proxmox no longer does.

VictoriaMetrics is now pinned to v1.155.0 in docker-compose.yml instead of following latest. Redeploying pulls that version, and your history is kept.

New

  • Last backup for every VM. Each VM on vCenter, Proxmox VE and XCP-ng is matched to its newest backup on Proxmox Backup Server, Veeam or HYCU. Over two days warns, and over a week, or none at all, is critical. A VM that no backup server answers for says "not checked", never "no backup". Last backup per VM
  • Veeam Backup & Replication 12 and 13, with only the Viewer role, and HYCU (preview) as sources, each with its own panel.
  • Your racks on the LAN tab, placed from NetBox or set by hand. A 2U device says U10–11.
  • A Tools tab: ping, DNS, TLS, HTTP, TCP, traceroute, mail checks (MX, SPF and its lookups, DMARC, STARTTLS on port 25), and a port scan of one private address or a range up to a /24, on ports 1–1023 and 8000–10000. Admins only, closed while sign-in is off, and every run is audited. Free in every edition.
  • Drives that are getting worse. Bad sectors, reconnects and media errors warn for a week after they rise, not because an old count is above zero. Pending sectors warn while they wait.
  • UPSes shared over NUT, read without logging in, and UniFi PDUs read from the console.
  • The hub shows capacity forecasts across every site, and the setup wizard can add a Tailscale sidecar, so a site joins with no port opened.
  • License alerts for a key that has expired, been withdrawn or is ending soon. They can't be silenced.
  • Every table sorts by its header, and data tables download as CSV or HTML.
  • The VMware exit report uses your currency, puts the price first, saves as PDF, and prints in light or dark.
  • Archive copies now include capacity history and the hub's state. A hub's keys are included only when the copy is encrypted.

Changed

  • An alert already active when Collimo starts is never sent as a notification, except a license alert.
  • Capacity drops a renamed or removed source's rows at once.
  • QNAP names a disk's maker once, QuTS hero included.
  • Synology on DSM 7.2: volumes listed beside their pool are read correctly.
  • Every word Collimo shows is now in US English.

Upgrading

Set COLLIMO_VERSION=0.2.0 and redeploy. Read Updating Collimo first if you haven't kept a copy of SETTINGS_KEY and BACKUP_KEY.
