Hi folks, I've been playing around with Zenoss for a number of days and reading the manual (yes actually READ both the Admin and User manuals) and while I have things setup on 5 different servers and it's importing data I want to do a little more.
One of the things I want to do is keep an updated list of software we have installed on the server with the version numbers etc. I currently have a cron script on our servers that export this data to a file, but is there a way that Zenoss can get version numbers, or read the file and parse it? I've been reading on the Net-SNMP also, and really haven't found information on using SNMP to parse a file and obtain version info etc. I know I can create custom fields on the server and insert the data etc, but automation and verified "up to date" information is so much better to deal with. Does anyone have any guides or direction on where I can go to read more on doing something like this? An example would be great, but I'm fine reading docs too. I've gone through the forum here, i've been searching all over google, but nothing returning for me. Currently using CentOS and RedHat on most of our servers. Appreciate any help. -------------------- m2f -------------------- Read this topic online here: http://forums.zenoss.com/viewtopic.php?p=27234#27234 -------------------- m2f -------------------- _______________________________________________ zenoss-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.zenoss.org/mailman/listinfo/zenoss-users
