[Xen-users] What tools do you use to monitor services within instances?
Hey Chaps, I''m doing a bit of googling for research and I''ve come up with:- munin catcti mtrg zabbix mon What do you guys use? I''d prefer (i.e _want_), something that''s GPL''ed. Sooo much choice! So much Linux, so little time ;) -- John Maclean - 07739 171 531 MSc (DIC) _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

I hate writing plugins from scratch. _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

Check out SIM from http://www.r-fx.org under projects. It is great if you want something running on the server to monitor and restart services per your defined variables, etc. I''m not sure which version he has out there currently but you might want to check out the forums as well and grab version 3 as it is more modular and versatile. If you want to simply monitor availability of services then Nagios is what you probably want as mentioned before.
