It's time for OpenNMS On the Horizon!
Sorry for the delay in getting this out, I was hiding in the Caribbean away from all the toilet paper hoarders.
In the last couple of weeks we worked on CircleCI workflow updates, the new time-series API, improvements to Minion configuration, normalizing our Karaf command-names, CIDR support for classification rules, a Prometheus collector, a bunch of Docker updates, and documentation improvements.
Github Project Updates
Internals, APIs, and Documentation
- I worked on backporting our CircleCI workflow to
foundation-2018as part of our continuing process to stop using Bamboo internally. - Patrick continued his work to create a new API for time-series data.
- Jesse did more work on the project to normalize all Karaf commands under an
opennms:namespace. - Matt worked on adding support for using Confd to configure Minions with a yaml file.
- Dustin continued his work on BMP support.
- Matt fixed a race condition in Telemetryd logging.
- Chandra did more work on converting to using protobuf rather than BSON for transporting flow data.
- Jesse worked on a collector for Prometheus-formatted data.
- Markus wrapped up adding support for CIDR in classification rule expressions.
- Chandra worked on fixing a bug in the Karaf command when attempting to remove something from SNMP definitions.
- Jesse worked on performance improvements to OIA's use of cached alarms.
- Ronny worked on adding support for publishing arm64/armhf Docker images for Minion.
- Bonnie did a bunch of updates to the thresholding docs in Horizon, as well as info on making PDF reports from Grafana dashboards.
- Sean updated our Kafka components dependency to 2.4.0.
- Chandra made improvements to the node cache used by flow enrichment.
- Alejandro fixed a bug in the health-check script for Minion and Sentinel Docker images.
Web, ReST, UI, and Helm
- Ronny and Bonnie did more work on wrapping up CircleCI publishing, building, and documentation for Helm.
Calendar of Events
April Releases - April 7th, 2020

The OpenNMS Group will be offering training at SecureWatch 24 Fusion Center in Moonachie, New Jersey the week of April 27th. 8 seats are available, and the deadline for signing up is April 17th.
Until Next Week…
If there’s anything you’d like me to talk about in a future OOH, or you just have a comment or criticism you’d like to share, don’t hesitate to say hi.
