We are primarily using RedAlert [www.redalert.com] for public-internet monitoring. That was set up before I joined the company. Inside our cage, our NT folks have some NT boxes running SNMPc and listening for traps from our load balancers, and I believe they're also using some monitoring function of WebTrends. For a setup with 50 webservers, 45 NT application servers, a mail server, 2 YP servers, 2 database servers, and matched pairs of Extreme switches, Cisco 12008's, Alteon 180e's, and Arrowpoint CS150's, the combination of RedAlert and WebTrends is keeping up decently. At some point, we may add another layer of monitoring with NetSaint, or bb if I can keep it from pulverizing the host. As others have pointed out, NetSaint is also a very good alternative. I was evaluating BigBrother, but it was beating the hell out of the machine I was running it on. Then again, so were the developers :/... -j -- -Jonathan Disher -Systems and Network Engineer, Web Operations -Internet Pictures Corporation, Palo Alto, CA -[v] (650) 388-0497 | [p] (877) 446-9311 | [e] jdisher () eng ipix com On Tue, 21 Nov 2000, Bora Akyol wrote:
Does anyone out there have a set of scripts (or a commercial product) that is used to monitor a set of servers including sendmail, dns, etc and page/email people as necessary. I had written such a set of scripts a while back but that was too many years ago. Thanks Bora
