Moodss 17.1 has just been released. Moodss is a modular multi-platform
monitoring application, which supports operating systems (Linux, UNIX,
Windows, ...), databases (MySQL, PostgreSQL, DB2, ODBC, ...), networking
(SNMP, Apache, ...), and any device or process for which a module can be
developed (in a scripting or compiled language: Tcl, Python, Perl, C).
A very intuitive GUI with full drag'n'drop support allows the
construction of powerful dashboards with graphs, pie charts, ..., such
as one which would use the cpustats, memstats, apache and MySQL myhealth
modules to monitor a busy dynamic web server.
Proactive monitoring is achieved via a thorough thresholds
functionality, including warning by multiple emails, user defined
scripts, and an included daemon for background monitoring.
Finally, on top of real-time monitoring, any part of the visible data
can be stored in a SQL database (MySQL or ODBC) by both the GUI and
daemon applications, so that, for example, complete history over time
can be made available in web pages, common spreadsheet software, or
presentations.
This GPL software is included in Suse Professional (rpms for Redhat also
available on the author web page), used by IBM to monitor its Linux
mainframe (see the "IBM e-server zSeries and S/390: System Management"
redbook) and got an excellent review from Unix Review (further
information with screenshots at http://jfontain.free.fr/moodss/).
