Hi, Al
I am interested to participate the effort to add system monitoring function/feature into puppet. I like following equation ;) puppet=configuration management + asset management + system monitoring I am a xymon(hobbit/bb) user, I only see your doc mention nagios, so I could be helpful. Should open up wiki page on puppet wiki to document this effort ? I can do the wiki init work if you agree. tj On Fri, Mar 18, 2011 at 8:34 AM, Al @ Lab42 <[email protected]> wrote: > Good afternoon (morning|night) all, > I've just posted an article on how I manage automatic monitoring with Puppet > http://www.example42.com/?q=Test_Driven_Puppet_Infrastructures_deployment > and besides the shameless spam on this list I'd like to take this occasion > to raise again a topic discussed with Nigel, Dan and others in the last > Puppetcamp, in this list and somewhere else in the past. > > We all think, I suppose, that Puppet should somehow manage automatically the > monitoring of the resources it provides. > How this is done is a whole universe of complexity, alternative approaches > and design decisions. > > What I've done is an attempt to use standard naming to define what to > monitor in an abstract way (without reference to the tool actually used for > monitoring) and a (working in different productions) implementation entirely > based on Puppet DSL that prefers linearity and extendability over > performance and optimization of resources. > > I think it would be interesting to know how people are dealing with this > topic and how/when this will eventually implemented directly in Puppet code. > > All the best > Al > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "Puppet Users" group. > To post to this group, send email to [email protected]. > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > [email protected]. > For more options, visit this group at > http://groups.google.com/group/puppet-users?hl=en. > -- T.J.
