[nflug] Nagios Ubuntu

[DANIEL MAGNUSZEWSKI]

1) Cacti is nicer than MRTG (both use RRDtool).
2) I'm not too familiar with Nagios these days, but if you'd like a
Nagios type of monitoring solution, with the integrated
graphing/trending features of RRDtool, then you should check out
Hobbit:

1- Cacti is nicer than mrtg for graphs.
2- To answer the question, for system/service health monitoring, nagios
is
tough to beat. Unfortunately the learning curve/setup is not trivial.
The
daemon will fail on config errors. To fully utilize it you need to set
up
server groups, services, dependencies, and monitor groups. Once it's
set up,
add-on's and changes are pretty easy and you will have a great
monitoring
solution.
