We use Zabbix 2 because our managers want cute graphs.

I made my own monitoring solution as a school project once, it was pretty nice.
I don't use any monitoring software now but I discovered this the other day which looks dank

SSH and a terminal is all most people need.

We're a Nagios shop as well.
A different arm of our company still uses Patrol...

Primary monitoring bounces between ZenOSS and SCOM.

Secondary is Cacti and Smokeping.

I like ZenOSS better, but SCOM can kick off powershell scripts to self heal.

We're on Nagios but a Zabbix switch is on my to-do list. Ideally the monitoring system is capable of auto-adding compatible hosts,which Zabbix supports better than Nagios.

Incidentally if you want purdy graphs get something like ELK or Graylog to ingest your logs and spit out a custom designed set of graphs. I tend to think monitors should primarily communicate via email and SMS, the graphs are either irrelevant when stuff is OK, or too slow to interpret when shit's gone wrong whereas logs benefit from historical crunching like that, it gives you a better idea of your patterns when you can see it visually.

I don't think you really understand what these tools do.

I am asking because is thread related.
Are there any simple program to monitor logs from syslog server in real time.
I need something simple just for a test project, but the cuantity of logs is big and I need something to filter

>put all this bloated fucking bullshit on your nodes to monitor them
>realize that they're always at 10% CPU usage and 50% memory usage because of this stupid shit spamming statistics 24/7
delet this
