It has a large community around it and provides all the enterprise features you'd need from such a system. http://www.zenoss.com/ and Zenoss can use Nagios plugins as well. I'd see a chance for such a new tool, though: Zenoss can be very complicated to setup, esp. if you're not using SNMP on all your machines. -- Marc-Andre Lemburg eGenix.com Professional Python Services directly from the Source (#1, Jun 16 2010) >>> Python/Zope Consulting and Support ... http://www.egenix.com/ >>> mxODBC.Zope.Database.Adapter ... http://zope.egenix.com/ >>> mxODBC, mxDateTime, mxTextTools ... http://python.egenix.com/ ________________________________________________________________________ 2010-07-19: EuroPython 2010, Birmingham, UK 32 days to go ::: Try our new mxODBC.Connect Python Database Interface for free ! :::: eGenix.com Software, Skills and Services GmbH Pastor-Loeh-Str.48 D-40764 Langenfeld, Germany.
