A recent post that mentioned Zabbix inspired me to have a look at them again while I was waiting on something as it?s been a while since I looked at them.

What's available to remotely monitor services? What I'd like is something that can run scripts for each service to connect to a port and verify that it's up, and then send me an SMS message (phone text) to let me know which, if any, are down. Also, does a script exist that checks all the services listed by chkconfig and reports those that should be up but are down?

Hi All, I currently make use of Icinga (nagios fork) + Puppet for fully automated monitoring. It''s worked great up to this point.

Hi, I'm seeing a trend in which SIP devices such as Yealink SIP phones (with v72 firmware), are dropping support of SNMP in favor of "HTTP eventing" if may call this as such : when configuring the SIP device, you can define a couple of HTTP URL which triggered when some event occur (end of boot, on hook, ...).
