[Ganglia-developers] lightweight alert tool/ enhancement
Hi all, Is it possible to get an email notification on some event like cpu load spike beyond certain threshold or low disk space. I know there's already Nagios that might do it, but it's a bit of an overhead for me. Maybe there's some event-based framework that could be a good complement to gmetad, so that it has aspects (pre/post conditions etc).

My thought is that it wouldn't be such a bad idea for Ganglia to provide some very simple alert (RSS based, email, etc.). What do the community think? I would say no. There are a number of projects out there for monitoring and alerting aside from Nagios e.g. Mon ( http://mon.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Download). Even though adding this functionality seems like an easy task this could easily suck up all your time. There are many things that are a lot more close to core Ganglia. I can provide a simple PHP script that I use with Nagios that can be easily retrofitted to send out alerts. Vladimir - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
