Werk #16269: Adapt date formatting in most of the service outputs
| Component | Checks & agents |
| Title | Adapt date formatting in most of the service outputs |
| Date | Dec 2, 2023 |
| Checkmk Edition | Checkmk Raw (CRE) |
| Checkmk Version | 2.3.0b1 |
| Level | Trivial Change |
| Class | New Feature |
| Compatibility | Compatible - no manual interaction needed |
According to one of our surveys, most of our users prefer dates to be displayed in the format YYYY-MM-DD. This Werk changes the library function that many check plugins use when rendering their service summary.
As a result, the service output of many plugins will now format the date in the new format. For instance the next Interantional Talk Like a Pirate Day will no longer be rendered as "Sep 19 2024", but as "2024-09-19".
The following plugins are affected:
- Checkmk Agent: Deployment properties
- Checkmk: Performance and Settings
- Job Monitoring
- Kaspersky Anti-Virus: Updates (KESL)
- Kubernetes: Pod Containers
- Microsoft Azure Resource Health
- Microsoft Azure Virtual Network Gateways: Connections
- MS SQL Tablespaces: Successful Backups
- Nutanix Prism: Alerts
- Nutanix Prism: Hosts
- Oracle Database: Number of Active Sessions
- SAP HANA: Backup
- Virtual Machine under ESX: Snapshot Settings
