Nagios still works well for me. And it'll do some wmi stuff, IIRC. I've |
| 22 |
been using a combination of Mysql backed Puppet with stored resources |
| 23 |
for system management. Then push Nagios configs to the Nagios server via |
| 24 |
tags in Puppet. Still working to get it right, but it's about there. |
| 25 |
Next step is to get collectd working with Nagios as well. |
