Checkmk versions & editions

The download of the agent output or SNMP walks, that can be triggered from the hosts or Check_MK service context menus could run into time out situations with bad error messages like "Gateway timeout" in case the destination devices need more than ~110 seconds to respond.

We have now changed the process of fetching the data to be executed as background job. The GUI is displaying the progress during processing and presenting a download icon on the progress page to finally download the created file.
