Congrats on the new job Matt! Have you looked at Splunk? As long as the applications generate a log file, Splunk can take it in and compare it to pretty much any other log file. It makes pretty graphs for the management too! :)
Thank you, Chris Butler Infoscitex Corporation Systems Administrator 781/890-1338 x291 617/276-5099 (cell) -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] on behalf of Matt Lawrence Sent: Wed 4/14/2010 12:48 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [lopsa-tech] Performance monitoring I have recently started a new job, that's why I'm asking questions here. I need to deploy some sort of performance monitoring tools across a few hundred systems. In addition to the usual system performance stats, I would like to find a set of tools that will easily allow me to collect and display various application level information. These are systems doing lots of real time transaction processing, so being able to see the graphs of what the applications are doing in sync with the system graphs would be a very good thing. The management structure here is that I am on the sysadmin team which does not do anything with the applications. So, being able to integrate the data collection will make my life easier and make the application support folks happier. I'm comfortable programming in C, Ruby & Perl, so writing additional code to support monitoring is not a big worry. -- Matt It's not what I know that counts. It's what I can remember in time to use. _______________________________________________ Tech mailing list [email protected] http://lopsa.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tech This list provided by the League of Professional System Administrators http://lopsa.org/
