Hmmm. Ok. From your description it sounds like I have to do a lot of manual labor to set up the host dependencies that Nagios would do automatically, and which could turn out to be a lot of work if there are many devices. I can do "anything" I want, but it's not automatically done by the software in an intelligent way. ------------------------ Sam Darwin -------------------- m2f -------------------- Read this topic online here: http://community.zenoss.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=5761#5761 -------------------- m2f -------------------- _______________________________________________ zenoss-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.zenoss.org/mailman/listinfo/zenoss-users
