Recently I upgraded us from 2.9 to 3.0.6 and I'm looking for
recommendations for a book or two on 3.0 to take my

wondering which ones are the best:
        
Any suggestions would be _greatly_ appreciated!
        
5. This list. Try to discover the answer to as many questions
as you can yourself by reading the docs and source and by
trial. Try to understand the why of an answer you discover or
provided by someone else. I consider it a much more
interesting and varied resource than the few standard
examples a book might have; plus it's free =).
      
Only once you reach a certain level. There are no doubt many lurkers
who have trouble getting started. I know I did. I got a copy of
"Building a Monitoring Infrastructure with Nagios" (Feb07) and found
that invaluable, but we're still on nagios version 2
    

Agreed. Dave Josephsen's book is excellent. I'm currently on the
visualization chapter. It's very comprehensive and practical. He's
opinionated enough to make reading chapters interesting.

I agree about the book. You may like to know that Dave Josephsen has also written some excellent articles in ;login: (the Journal of USENIX http://www.usenix.org). Unfortunately, all but the first article (http://www.usenix.org/publications/login/2007-08/pdfs/josephsen.pdf) are only available to members at this time.
