[Nagios-devel] Database integration of SysNagios project

Post by Guest »

I'm maintaining a project for distributed configuration of Nagios called
SysNagios.
(Principle, sysadmin configures Nrpe and nagios parses config and
automatically updates cfg-files).

This works great in the organization, we're currently monitoring 1017
hosts and 9724 service checks and I hardly do any support at all :-).

Anyway. Even though SysNagios supports proxies with nsca, the user
interface is getting really sluggish. I need to implement SysNagios with
some database-based frontend really soon. We have hundreds of systems in
line to get nagiossed.=20

Now i gett weary, which system shall I use!? There is'nt time enough to
try out one and see if I like it. When I choose, it will likely be
"forever". I like what I see in Merlin, but there is no real
documentation, and I also like Ninja.

NDO seems more established, but it has some real drawbacks.

Currently I use the notes_url to call a CGI which downloads the config
from the monitored host, parses, errorchecks and inserts it into the
Nagios file-structure. There is also a field in the "left menu" of
Nagios where you can choose which proxy you want to use, and enter an IP
if you are to insert a new host. These mods must be possible in the new
platform as well.=20

What shall I do!?

By the way, I'll be speaking about SysNagios on Nordic Meet On Nagios.

Best regards

P.S if anyone wants to try SysNagios, mail me for the latest scripts.
The cvs repository on SourceForge is not up to date D.S
