From what I've seen, RHEL5 derivatives seem to be what they target in primary development, and is what I think they've said most Enterprise users are using. For 2.2.4, I've found SL5.2 (which is a modified RHEL) to be perfectly reliable. Then again, I also have a Linux guru to help when I get into deep water.
Per your other post, I don't run on a VM however. I expect it would take some work to tune a VM environment to run well - Zenoss is big on RAM and I/O, two areas that VMs add additional overhead to. Just writing lots of events or to the RRD files can overwhelm direct disk access if there are enough monitored items. -- James Pulver Information Technology Area Supervisor LEPP Computer Group Cornell University dlebowski wrote, On 2/17/2009 12:26 PM: > What is the best distro of Linux to run zenoss on?
