I have used MON and it doesn't only monitors but it allows you to take some action when the monitor program reports failure and then again when it comes back up.

If Nagios had been around when we wrote the book, I'm certain we would have looked at it instead. :-) As the website states, Nagios is the descendant of Netsaint (Netsaint is dead, long live Netsaint), even to the point of supporting Netsaint plugins. I might have a stab at migrating my Netsaint installation to Nagios, and report how I progress... Ganglia looks *very* interesting, but on a whole other level... The monitor component looks similar to what Netsaint/Nagios provides, but I'm not sure it has the alerting and mapping features.
