Hi Pete,
Zabbix looks pretty nice... does it allow you to get insight into 
currently running apps, such as checking on the health of individual 
tables within a db?

you just want to check a db is up though

Subject: mysql heartbeat

Has anyone used or built a db monitoring tool for MySQL?
I have come across various system-level heartbeat tools, but I am 
specifically looking for a solution that will work on Win2K Server and 
RedHat boxes, as we have several servers that each run different 
instances of mysql.

No replication or clustering here, just looking to get notification and 
execute some php if a specific db or table isn't accessible. I have a 
rough plan for making my own, but I thought I would check here to see if 
anyone had a suggestion...

Thanks,
~mathew

I don't know of anything in open source or shrink wrapped that does it,
least of all cross-platform but perl and Java each run with good
transparency on both *nix and Win32..  a script/program to perform basic
heartbeat check would take less than an hour and be completely portable.

Hi Michael, thanks for the info. I guess I will go ahead with my plan to 
make something a little bit more robust that will check the avialability 
of every table of every db on a box and send out notifications on an 
interval until they are corrected. Seems like a nice little sourceforge 
project though...
