At the moment: both. The problem with using Nagios scripts in Zabbix is that the trigger/alarm decision is made in different places. In Nagios this is done in the check scripts / on the "client" side while Zabbix mainly collects data and fires triggers if certain conditions in that data are met. New(er) Zabbix versions also have a feature called "low level discovery" that automatically creates items. It also seems that there is better RESTful/ovirt API support in python so I'm giving that a try too. Although perl is usually my poison of choice too ;) >> For this I've created a "AdminLoginOnly" role that only has >> System->Configure System->Login Permissions access. >> >> Is this the way to go for this king of configuration?

It does make the logic in the script a bit harder because you have to store the sessionid somewhere and check if the session is still valid. _______________________________________________ Users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users
