Motadata Release Notes Version 8.2.9

Release Date: October 05, 2026

What's New?​

PostgreSQL Cluster Health and Performance Monitoring Added​

PostgreSQL Clusters can now be monitored alongside standalone PostgreSQL instances, with cluster health, replication status, and node-level metrics available across the standard database monitoring workflows.

Apache Kafka Monitoring Added​

With this release, Apache Kafka can be monitored using both agent-based and agentless collection. Discovery follows the same rediscovery settings flow used by other applications.

With this release, Cisco NX-OS joins Cisco IOS-XE, Cisco IOS-XR, and Juniper RPM as a supported OS, with ICMP Echo, UDP Echo, and UDP Jitter probes over SSH.

Topology Connection Width and Bold Label Controls Added​

With this release, the topology visualization settings expose a connection width slider and a bold name toggle for node labels, alongside the existing overlay controls. Both settings apply to default and custom topologies.

Benchmark and Peak Order Counters for LAMA Integration Added​

With this release, the LAMA integration adds two counters, Benchmark and Peak Order. Values are fetched and delivered to LAMA, alongside the existing categories.

Per-Interface CRC and FCS Error Monitoring Added​

A dedicated CRC/FCS error counter is now available per network interface, distinct from the aggregate inbound-error signal, so network teams can spot failing cables, transceivers, or links early. The counter surfaces in Alert Policies across multi-vendor SNMP-monitored networks.

ArubaOS-Switch .swi Firmware Upgrade Support in NCCM Added​

NCCM firmware upgrade now accept .swi images used by ArubaOS-Switch devices. The .swi extension is now part of the accepted firmware allow-list.

Enhanced Alert Suppression with Flexible window and Notes​

With this release, users can suppress a single active alert from its detail view using a preset window, a custom length with a chosen unit (such as 45 minutes or 3 days), or until a specific future date and time. Suppressed alerts stay visible in the alert list with their resume time, and alerting fully pauses across state changes and notifications.
