The rule "Status of the Checkmk services" offers "Individual states per data source" with an entry "Special agent". This entry was never applied: special agents always used the "Overall status" settings instead.

With this werk, the "Special agent" entry is applied to all special agents of a host. If you have configured it, the state of the "Check_MK" service may change after the update.
