NAV 3.11.4 is now available for download at Launchpad: https://launchpad.net/nav/3.11/3.11.4
This maintenance release contains fixes for 7 reported issues, as well as some performance improvements to the collection system:
Bugfixes:
* LP#644155 (Network Explorer never returns response to some searches) * LP#912276 (Device History Request-URI Too Large) * LP#996955 (All sensor stats are named "Sensor", and clutter the ipdevinfo view) * LP#997008 (Failed ipdevpoll jobs aren't properly rescheduled) * LP#997606 (add option to run each ipdevpoll job type in separate process) * LP#997980 (bad MAC for IPv6 addresses from Catalyst 6500) * LP#999606 (dhcping is not documented as requirement for DHCP service monitor)
Various performance-related improvements:
* Internal caching of collected SNMP variables pr. ipdevpoll SNMP session.
* Various tweaks to avoid producing unnecessary SNMP queries.
* Added database indexes for some potentially slow and frequently used queries.
* Added ipdevpolld multiprocess option to run each job type as separate subprocess (enabling this will consume up to 60 PostgreSQL connections, be warned!)
* An -n option was added to ipdevpolld. Used in combination with the -J option, ipdevpoll will run a single job for a single netbox as a foreground process.
* When new jobs are added to the internal ipdevpoll job queues, boxes are prioritized in ascending order of last update time. I.e. ipdevpoll will run jobs first for boxes that are new or haven't completed an inventory job in a long time.

Binary packages for Debian will be made available as soon as possible. The Debian package is maintained by Morten Werner Forsbring, on commission From UNINETT.
Happy NAVing everyone!
