Impersonation is available, reporting and callbacks WIP

New Feature: Impersonation

Windows impersonation is now implemented. Users who are only interested in monitoring some aspects of their Windows hosts no longer have to run MAGNAPing under a certain user account. With impersonation, it can run under any account but temporarily impersonate another account, for the duration of the monitoring ping. This improves security and allows MAGNAPing to run in highly-secure environments.

In the Works: Reporting, Callbacks

Notification is important, but reporting is important too. Since MAGNAPing works with many DB back-ends its reporting module requires quite a bit of work, which is underway. Soon, a dashboard will be included with MAGNAPing, as a free add-on.

We are also working on callbacks also known as user exits. A number of callback points will be offered, such as before and after a ping, before and after flagging a resource as failed or restored, and some others.

Stay tuned for more exciting news of new features that make MAGNAPing ever more powerful and flexible!
