I haven't tried Hyperic myself, but maybe more people would jump in here if you could provide more detail on what kind of information you're trying to get out of your equipment.
What information are you interested on the Workstations? One thing Zenoss does very well is software inventory. It can pull the list of install software from Windows system and organize it in very useful ways. You can use standard Windows server monitoring tools on your VMware hosts (assuming they're Windows servers of course.) Such as Windows service monitoring and event log monitoring via WMI, and performance (CPU/RAM/Paging/Disk Utilization & Performance) with the SNMP Informant MIB extension. This is just some starter information. What products works best for you all depends on the kind of information you're interested in. I do believe you'll find that Zenoss is the most flexible option. ------------------------ Chet Luther -------------------- m2f -------------------- Read this topic online here: http://community.zenoss.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=6859#6859 -------------------- m2f -------------------- _______________________________________________ zenoss-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.zenoss.org/mailman/listinfo/zenoss-users
