April OpenNMS Meridian and Horizon Releases
OpenNMS Meridian
Last week we released updates to Meridians 2017 through 2019. These are recommended updates because they include security fixes:
OpenNMS Horizon
On top of the Meridian point releases, we also put out Horizon 26, a new major version of the OpenNMS Horizon track.
The biggest change involves adding support for processing BMP (BGP Monitoring Protocol) in Telemetryd.
If you'd like to see an overview of the major changes since Horizon 25, take a look at What’s New in OpenNMS Horizon 26. For an exhaustive list of issues that have been resolved since Horizon 25, see the change log.
Calendar of Events
May Releases - May 5th, 2020
The next OpenNMS release day is May 5th, 2020. Currently we expect to point/bug fix releases of Meridian 2019 and Horizon 26.
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.
