op5 Statistics 3.0 released

op5 Statistics 3.0 has just been released. The new release features:

• an updated poller ("spine", previously known as cactid) which reduces system load
• Network Weathermap -a tool that displays in a visual way the utilization of the network links of your network
• update to latest cacti-release (0.8.6j -> 0.8.7b)

You can upgrade to op5 Statistics 3.0 using the yum update tool ("yum update") or, if your op5 server doesn't have Internet access, by downloading the installer/upgrader (.tar.gz). Please notice that you have to confirm a couple of settings when accessing Statistics the first time after the upgrade. Just click through the settings-pages and leave all values at defaults.

A manual and howto diagram for Network Weathermap are available in the user manuals section.
