The latest version of Foglight for SNMP is 5.9.5.
Prerequisite: Foglight for Infrastructure 5.8.5.4 (or later) must be installed before upgrading to Foglight for SNMP 5.9.5.
Note: Foglight for Infrastructure is order-dependent. Therefore, the Agent Manager must be updated on the Management Server prior to installing Foglight for Infrastructure.
Important: The BindUpTimeToHostBootTime rule was updated since Foglight for SNMP version 5.8.5.6. Before upgrading Foglight for SNMP to version 5.8.5.6 or later from old versions (for example, 5.8.5.3), ensure that the BindUpTimeToHostBootTime rule was not modified on your environment. After upgrading to version 5.8.5.6 or later, you must disable the GenericSNMPService cartridge and then re-enable it (or restart the Management Server), so that the rule change takes effect.
