This werk only affects users of non-Checkmk local customizations (single files and MKPs from non- Checkmk sources such as the Checkmk exchange).

Two monolithic files under cmk/gui/plugins/wato/ have been split up into multiple smaller files:

datasource_programs.py, which defined rules for configuring special agents, has been refactored into the folder datasource_programs.
active_checks.py, which defined rules for configuring active checks, has been refactored into the folder active_checks.

Hence, any customization containing imports from any of the two dissolved files has to be adjusted. The new import paths are probably cmk.gui.plugins.wato.datasource_programs/active_checks.common.

Note that this only affects non-Checkmk customizations because as of the writing of this werk, any customization produced by Checkmk will be obsolete with Checkmk 2.2.
