I looked at Internapper years ago when I was running a Wireless ISP and it looks very nice at the time. Still, I also suggest you take a hard look at OpenNMS. It has the power or HP Openview, without the price, but with some, but not all, of the setup headaches. Compare Internapper pricing to have the OpenNMS commercial support help you set it up. ___ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss/
Re: Network/System Monitors
Have you looked at Zabbix? http://zabbix.com I found Zabbix much more flexible and feature rich then Nagios. ~k On Thu, 2009-08-20 at 14:49 -0400, Kenny Lussier wrote: > Hi All, > > We are currently using Nagios for monitoring systems and some network > gear.

It discusses thresholds, but not in a predictive context - though maybe that just means you need smarter plug-ins. SFlow does not appear to be covered in the book.

Let me know if the book is likely to be useful.) > > Does anyone have any experience with network/system monitors that > combine the functionality of Nagios, Cacti, SFlow, etc.?

Network/System Monitors
Hi All, We are currently using Nagios for monitoring systems and some network gear. However, we have found that it is a little lacking in a few areas: Predictive threshold SFlow tracking Monitoring several sites from a single data collector. Does anyone have any experience with network/system monitors that combine the functionality of Nagios, Cacti, SFlow, etc.? We are looking into products from Solar Winds and ManageEngines right now, but I would like to hear from others what they think? I am open to OSS and commercial products. Thanks, Kenny ___ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss/

My "take-away" from this conversation is that the 'listening to your logfile' thing is more a novelty or 'one-off' accommodation for corner cases. I saw a USB based toy missile launcher in the Edmunds Scientific catalog today...could be the basis for indicating when a system has gone ballistic ;-) Regards, Mark http://EllisonSoftware.com/ ___ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss/

[GNHLUG] GamingSIG Disbanding
Hi all - Well, we gave it a good college try, but after 5-6 months of no attendees at the Gaming SIG, Arc and I have decided to let the project retire. If anybody else wants to pick it up and have a go at it, they're certainly welcome to but as of now there are no more scheduled Gaming SIG meetings. -- Cole Tuininga Lead Developer co...@code-energy.com ___ gnhlug-announce mailing list gnhlug-annou...@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-announce/ ___ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss/
