Release note for Gfarm Zabbix plugin 4.0.0
==========================================

[2016.12.28]

Updated feature
* restructure the templates.
Template_Gfarm_linux, which enables detection of some critical problems,
can coexist with “Template OS Linux” with this change.
The definitions which cannot coexist with “Template OS Linux” are
moved to the Template_gfarm*_alt templates. (e.g. Template_Gfarm_linux_alt)
[sf.net ticket #966]
* make Template_Gfarm_linux treat “I/O error” message from kernel
as “high” priority problem instead of an “average” problem.
[sf.net ticket #930]
* make Template_Gfarm_linux detect “bio too big device” message from kernel.
which shows a critical problem about the stroage. [sf.net ticket #931]
* make Template_Gfarm_linux detect “XFS: Internal error” message from kernel.
[sf.net ticket #976]
* report all critical “checksum mismatch” errors from gfmd,
all critical write_verify related errors from gfsd, and
all “Input/output error” / “Stale file handle” errors from gfsd
without any summarization. [sf.net ticket #977]

Documentation Update
* improve installation procedure [sf.net ticket #932]
* clarify macro settings [sf.net ticket #945]
