server monitoring software?

[hotwired007]

has anyone had any experience in installing any server monitoring tools alongside a proxmox ve solution?

any recommendations?

ultimately i'd want to be able to navigate to http://proxmoxip/monitor and see CPU/RAM/HDD temp/load with some history...

the current beta includes already some very simple history. take also a look here, http://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Monitoring_with_Icinga

I've been working with the beta, and it looks very good was just wondering if there was anything i could plug into my existing 1.9 cluster...

Try SolarWinds Server and Application Monitor SAM it helps to monitor CPU, RAM, HDD, server temperature all with simple dashboards and charts

I know one free software monitoring of individual computers and services. You can easily get all information on the website

Hi. So I prefer a sofware for an induvidual computer monitoring and network bouth. You can install it and monitor different processes. I found that the simplest one from lots of free software is TNM.

Hello,
I don't know much about proxmox but i know a lot about monitoring. Generrally monitoring depends on the type of architecture. If you have devices supporting Netflow, this could be very handy to identify bottlenecks or missues. There are just a few good tools for netflow under a low budget, try solarwinds or Pandora FMS.

For SNMP monitoring, probably the most common case, most tools do a good job: cacti, zabbix, pandora fms or nagios. OpenNMS and Pandora FMS have the best management of Traps, and only a few manage v3 properly.

For a mixed scope on monitoring: server, apps and networking, you have less tools, we use Pandora FMS for that reason, can manage netflow, snmp, wmi (for remote server monitoring) and agent based monitoring for unix & windows server.

There is also a nagios plugin called pve-monitor. You'll find it at github: https://github.com/dpiquet/pve-monitor

"It can monitor openvz and qemus virtual machines, storages and nodes without installing software on your monitored resources. It uses the Proxmox VE API to query the cluster status.[FONT=Helvetica, arial, freesans, clean, sans-serif]"[/FONT]

[FONT=Helvetica, arial, freesans, clean, sans-serif]I will give it a try in the next weeks, because i already got a icinga server running. [/FONT]
