25     <h2>i-scream TODO list</h2>
26    
27     This is a list of things which still need to be done;
28    
29     <h3>Server</h3>
30     <pre>
31 tdb 1.6 LocalClient Monitors: Disks, Load, Processes, Queues, Service Checks, Users.
32     WebFeeder needs to dump Alerts to disk.
33     Utilise the ConfigurationProxy throughout the server.
34 tdb 1.1 Sort out GC & Configuration objects (and CorbaHandlers).
35 tdb 1.7 Thread naming, at least at a "what class it is" level.
36 tdb 1.1 Makefile stops halfway through on FreeBSD (dependency?).
37     Sort out verbosity levels of messages around the server.
38    
39     Completed:
40     ----------
41 tdb 1.5 08/03/2001 - WebFeeder needs to dump XML to disk
42 tdb 1.3 07/03/2001 - Service Checks: FTP, POP3, IMAP, SSH, Telnet
43 tdb 1.1 01/03/2001 - Make it easy to change flags to the java compiler.
44     Configuration groups need implementing.
45     28/02/2001 - Queue identification ? Use a hash of the Queue ?
46     Fix the Queue "unlimited" size problem.
47     27/02/2001 - (not needed) ClientInterface/DBInterface need to "pull" data ?
48     Builds on the website ?
49     Change build scripts to make iscream-server.java/tar.gz/zip
50     25/02/2001 - Move checking of logging verbosity to the servant.
51     23/02/2001 - print verbosity level with logging messages
52     functionality added to the LoggerServant
53     23/02/2001 - Startup of components - eg. running DBInterface on another machine.
54     Now catches any problems relating to not finding a component if
55     a component has a dependancy. The component manager will then
56     retry it after a given timeout.
57     12/02/2001 - Logging of Queue.status() somehow.
58     06/02/2001 - Make use of the PrintWriter "autoflush" feature :)
59     28/01/2001 - Add dependency checking for the DOCOPY Makefile target.
60     Client Interface needs more functionality.
61     SQL Driver doesn't work in Windows.
62     18/01/2001 - Heartbeats are still dropped.
63     CVS directories get added to build tar/zip file.
64     Problem on FreeBSD with zip file adding more files than it should.
65     Remove Component from util package -> ComponentManager.
66     Remove ReferenceManager from util package -> ComponentManager.
67     Add status methods to the Queue that return just values.
68     Clean up the util package, it shouldn't do logging etc.
69     -- done with the exception of ReferenceManager.
70     16/01/2001 - Build a util package JAR file seperately.
71     14/01/2001 - Javadoc pages on website ?
72     -- done for the server at least.
73     12/01/2001 - Investigate the use of a Queue in the Filter, to replace the
74     current FilterThread setup.
75     07/01/2001 - Makefile needs to copy non-java files to JAR (eg. images).
76     02/01/2001 - Add making of Javadoc pages to make scripts.
77     Queuing system in the root filter.
78     </pre>
79    
80     <h3>Conient</h3>
81     <pre>
82     Consider graphing of some values?
83     Allow changing of view
84     -adding removing data fields??
85     -comparing fields accross servers
86 ajm 1.4 Possibly use a JTree in place of a JTabbedPane
87     Fix bug where it can take up to two packets to display
88     correct information. This is most visible in service
89     checks, but can also be seen on disk, memory and anything
90     else that uses two data items from the packet for one
91     component.
92 tdb 1.1 Maybe handle exceptions nicer in the comms
93     Switch to using the StringUtil class for the firewall command stuff
94

99     Allow config to be written back to a local file

101     05/02/2001 - allow disk components to alter their units
102     have some icons and the i-scream logo on display
103     show errors in windows rather than on the console
104     Fix error in packet stopping update of ALL hosts
105     04/02/2001 - Write LOADS more data components
106     03/02/2001 - Allow config to be obtained from the server
107     30/01/2001 - Add option to handle firewalls
108     29/01/2001 - Allow config to be obtained from a local file
109     Fix problem with memory display showing negative values at start
110     Ensure all Swing updates use the Swing Event Handling thread (partial - only data components)

112     </pre>
113    
114     <h3>statgrab</h3>

116 tdb 1.2 Solaris - If free memory changes to < 10Mb (?) it changes to K rather than M (thus not matched)
117 tdb 1.1 FreeBSD - grabbing memory total
118     Linux - CPU %'s not always right, 2 repititions ?
119     Consider proc as a replacement for top on Linux
120     If possible, find alternatives to top, as it's very "heavy"

135     Solve OCX problem
136     </pre>
