Hello,
With more servers coming online, we are looking for better ways to monitor and alert on situations that arise. Dedicateds have out of band monitoring of course, but it would be good to get a little more cohesive. Something that can give a snapshot of the current status of all the servers and can notify via email, sms etc.
SNMPv3 perhaps? Though it would need to be robust enough to survive a cPanel upgrade, and also work across different platforms. Something "inband" from multiple sources would be good. Like a soap call to port 80 that returns a current status - preferably obtained from multiple sources so that a local network outage didn't cause a server outage indication.
What are people here using?
