The RHQ and development team is proud to have released the final version 3.0.0
of the RHQ Systems management and monitoring software - this release contains
the Jopr bits as it has been the case for all the recent community releases.
RHQ is a management platform for everything from the OS level load and network
metrics through common databases to application servers and projects. The
system includes support for monitoring and/or managing Apache httpd, Apache
Tomcat, JBoss Application Server, PostgreSQL, and other popular open source
projects. RHQ runs on PostgreSQL 8.2.4+ and Oracle as backend databases and is
written in Java.
RHQ features a powerful agent plugin model that allows for the quick
development of monitoring and management support for new projects and software.
It supports inventory auto-discovery, rich monitoring and alerting, operational
control, configuration management, content deployment, log tracking, and full
history and auditing. It supports fine-grained security and rich group
management.
This release delivers a lot of new functionality as well as many bugfixes.
Highlights are
• Server side plugins - extend the server functionality by writing
plugins
• Pluggable alert notification senders - write your own alert
notification senders to e.g. integrate with a trouble ticket system
• Provisioning - deploy software centrally to managed platforms
• Improved Search possibilities for the inventory
• Support for Authorization via LDAP groups
• Support for Oracle 11g
