I have been looking into some  monitoring solutions, I like the look of Zenoss, 
but am wondering if it will work for my needs.  Everything I read talks about 
using Zenoss for 10-1000 devices.

I need to monitor approximately 6000 devices.  I really only need 'ping' type 
monitoring on about 5000 of them that are running Windows XP.  The other 1000 
are running 2003 Server R2 on Dell servers and I could see a need to monitor 
more in depth information.

These devices are spread across approximately 300 locations which are connected 
via a private WAN.   The connections are about 400 Kbs to the locations.

Would a single server be able to handle this kind of load?  Is SNMP the only 
way to populate devices aside from doing it in a manual fashion?   If I have 
another product with a database of all known devices, could I use that data to 
populate the list of manageable items?

Any info would be appreciated.

Matt
