Enhancements:
-
Add md5_hash function to IMPACThttps://bigblue.aha.io/ideas/ideas/IRISCART-I-533
A new MD5Hash policy function is now available which, returns the MD5 hash of a given string. This function can be used along with the md5_hash() function in the object server and probe rules to quickly compare hashes.

https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/tivoli-netcoolimpact/7.1?topic=functions-md5hash - Load balancing for webservices
https://bigblue.aha.io/ideas/ideas/IRISCART-I-1054
How to load balance and provide high availability for Netcool/Impact Server Connections (Web Services, REST Interface, and others) - Add clustering information to the REST interface
The internal REST interface was updated to return information about the cluster and primary status. Querying https://hostname:9081/restui/serverinfo/clustername returns the server name, cluster name, and the name of the acting primary.{"clusterMemberName":"NCI_2","clusterName":"NCICLUSTER","activeClusterMembers":["NCI_1"],"primaryClusterName":"NCI_1"}
Querying https://hostname:9081/restui/serverinfo/isprimary returns true if the current host is an acting and/or preferred primary.
{"isPrimary":true,"isPreferredPrimary":false}Get the server name, cluster name, and the name of the active primary and any secondaries (/clustername):
