<extra_service_checks>
# on which host / sections should this serice be created
host = ANY
section = ANY
name = dns # the actual service description
check = check_dns # snclient check
args = -H thruk.org # check arguments
# add arbitray naemon config attributes here as well
first_notification_delay = 30
</extra_service_checks>
</snclient>

The BP plugin can now revert changes in case the core has issues reloading. This usually indicates
issues with the config.
In this case you can continue to edit the business process and try again.
While on it, Icinga2 support has been improved.
Also, the aggregation functions at_least() and not_more() do support percentage thresholds now.
The rest api got some improvements as well.
It is possible to do calculations in the query itself, ex.:
%> thruk r '/hosts?columns=name,num_services_crit+num_services_unknown+num_services_warn as num_services_problems'
This sums those num_services* columns into a combined value.
Read more about calculations in the rest api docs.
