Those are the main items that I see for the next MAJOR release:
* login-profiles for nt based checks
* real webserver for setup (and probably also for
editing/creating new entries) - with some security features like SSL (https)
and login security
* additional threaded alerts
* additional threaded checks
* mib browser for snmp checks
Some parts that I'm also looking at are:
* VMWare ESX diskspace check (*nix df) <- this
would be an easy one IF we had access (in SSH) to an ESX system (hint hint :-))
* SQL2005 check
* WMI check (for Exchange for example)
* Groups alerts
* splitting the checking/alerting/displaying
And depending on the "success" for the agent-check, the enhancement of the
agents (giving it more checking options and probably also giving it alerting
options)
I'm sure that before we actualy get to the next major release that we will have
much more :-)

Yes, I did it. You might not remember the issue but you were working closely
with me on the problem. Running all the time dbgview, sending you reports ...
Ok, remote agent check is a huge new feature. That's true. I don't expect those
2 features I mentioned to be in 6.1. I mean people proposed some features they
would like to have it in the SA, you said, ok, I'll think about that. Most of
them were really interesting things so I think it will be nice to have a page
(or whatever) with a list of features and short comment with them (might be in
6.5, definitely not in 7, not possible etc) ... nothing more.
Thanks you will think about that ;)

About the stability, did you make the registry change explain on the beta page
for build 2149?
I see about 40 "added" items. For example adding the "remote agent check"
might be one line, but is a huge new feature.
The 2 features you talk about (password manager and mass editing of checks)
will NOT be in v6.1
The current beta is from a feature point of view what will be in v6.1
I'll see for a "roadmap" for the next major release…

Well I do check the beta page. Alright there's been some updates to the Salive,
I can't say there wasn't, but I think those were mainly bug fixes. Don't get me
wrong I was just asking for some road map or anything because there were so
many requests ...
As for features ... again, there were many requests, password manager, mass
editing of checks etc. ... and actually my main concern is stability. Since we
upgraded from the 5.x to 6.x and 6.1 beta (we were forced, just because of a
bug in the SMPP alerting engine) we lost stability. The SA hangs from time to
time for no reason. The problem wasn't detected so I'm forced to check the SA
service by vbscript. I believe I'm not alone since I do read mailing list.
Thank you
Petr

The proposals that were done at that time were not realy GUI improvements. I
"think" we did add a few things that were said at that time. There is a beta
site/page that shows all changes that we did, it's on http://beta.woodstone.nu
(http://beta.woodstone.nu)
Saying "lacks many features" is very vague, can you be more concrete with that?

Hi Dirk,
a couple of weeks ago you asked us what we would like to improve on GUI and
many of us sent a bunch of proposals for a new features. You said that some of
them might be very easily included in future betas (6.1). So I'd like to ask
whether you have some roadmap or some beta status page stating what you are up
to.
I don't really know where is salive going and it might be useful to give us
some info. Indeed is Salive a great product for a great price but it also lacks
many features. At this moment I'm being pushed to look for other alternatives
(IP Monitor, OPS Manager 2007 ...) and there are many reasons like
manageability, reporting, stability ...
Thank you
Petr
