that is probably what groundwork ganglia component does : http://www.groundworkopensource.com/products/components/ganglia.html you can get all the information you need for your triggers passively as well by polling the rrds, looping through gstat or getting the cluster view from gmetad. and I know some propietary correlation engine that is doing exactly that to add automated trend analysis and notifications, but I can't seem to be able to find their bussiness card or remember their name, except that the product name for their yet unreleased version was called "oxygene". > What do the community think? if there is the need for an active notification channel then we should build one, but IMHO the definition of what actions to take, or what is relevant should be done by something else than gmetad.
