Hi,

Try MRTG, there are a couple of very good scripts available for monitoring
mysql, it can monitor locally for you without requiring TCP access to the
DB. This allows you to monitor (not on a real time basis though) multiple
databases and provide some nice pictures to spot errors quickly. There are
many options available.

Thanks for the reply.  I don't think we want to open any port for MySQL
connections.  Is it possible to install some local stats collector on each
MySQL server and my central monitor polls each stats collector?  So I
don't need to directly connect to mysql.  The goal is make minimum impact
on database services.  That's just my rough idea.  Before I delve into
writing home grown scripts, anybody aware of any such server-client based
monitoring tools or have a better idea?

Thanks,

Bing
