Incident Report

We've identified an issue with the latest Agent release on Windows that causes the go.d plugin to not be started. The impact is that for Windows nodes, none of the metrics from the go.d plugin are being collected and corresponding alerts don't fire. We will be releasing a patch release to address this as soon as possible today. As a workaround the plugin binary in Program Files can be renamed to add the missing .exe extension.
