Werk #8545: Improved error handling in case of Microcore to Check_MK helper communication error

Component The Checkmk Micro Core
Title Improved error handling in case of Microcore to Check_MK helper communication error
Date Aug 3, 2016
Checkmk Edition Checkmk Enterprise (CEE)
Checkmk Version 1.4.0i1
Level Trivial Change
Class Bug Fix
Compatibility Compatible - no manual interaction needed

In case the communication protocol between the Microcore and the Check_MK helpers leads into an exception while the helper is reading a command from the Microcore, the helper could become unusable in a way where it starts mixing check results of hosts.

In case of such an error the helper is now terminating itself. The Microcore will then restart the helper afterwards.
