Hello, I'm thinking to choose a monitoring tool which would run on OpenBSD of course.
I have been working with Tivoli and Netview for couple of years so my idea is: * clients - heartbeats of course - simple interface to give a client some input as alert - text configuration on client node (can be pushed from central repo) - light * infrastructure nodes - proxy feature for far networks or dmz - filtering rules (thresholds, time filters ...) - text configuration - light * main server(s) - good filtering - surveillance console for monitoring center - be able to change status of an alert (acknowledge, closed, solved...) - be able to have some categories of clients based on roles I'm watching zabbix... not sure... If I wouldn't want event console I would probably check snmp -> sec -> snmptt. jirib
