These are databases that OpenNMS can *monitor* (up/down, send alerts for, etc.). These are *not* the databases that OpenNMS uses to store its data--we only support PostgreSQL for that. > ... and I am interested in adding Ingres (www.ingres.com), > another opensource DBMS to its list of supported RDBMSs.... > Could you please point me to the Opennms documentation to > get started on this task? I strongly encourage you to *not* do it, unless you have a very strong reason why you need Ingres and are willing to support it in the future. One database is hard enough for us to support, at least right now <grin>. > Mainly I wonder about > > 1.

I'll decline to answer the other questions for now, unless decide you really, Really, REALLY, *REALLY* want to use Ingres after reading the above information. - djg ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Verizon Developer Community Take advantage of Verizon's best-in-class app development support A streamlined, 14 day to market process makes app distribution fast and easy Join now and get one step closer to millions of Verizon customers http://p.sf.net/sfu/verizon-dev2dev _______________________________________________ Please read the OpenNMS Mailing List FAQ: http://www.opennms.org/index.php/Mailing_List_FAQ opennms-devel mailing list To *unsubscribe* or change your subscription options, see the bottom of this page: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/opennms-devel
