This change is only relevant for plugin developers.

Some rule specs allow the configuration of the eval_type to specify how the rules are meant to be evaluated in respect to each other. However, this configuration is not considered in some cases, instead Checkmk uses a predetermined evaluation type. For the affected rule specs this option was removed:

  • AgentConfig
  • NotificationParameters
  • DiscoveryParameters
