I just installed Nagios to try and monitor my 256 compute nodes centrally. It seems to work like a charm for all the public services (ping, ssh etc.) but now I was getting more ambitious and wanted to try to monitor the private services too (disk usage; process loads; torque ; pbs etc.).
I was just confused whether (1) to use the NPRE plugin (seems like a pain to deploy onto all 256 nodes) or (2) go via the check_by_ssh route. (I already have paswordless logins from master-nodes to slave-nodes) I'd like (2) because it is more secure and seems easier to deploy but I'm a bit afraid if this will overtax my central server. Any suggestions? Are other users using Nagios here? -- Rahul _______________________________________________ Beowulf mailing list, Beowulf@beowulf.org To change your subscription (digest mode or unsubscribe) visit http://www.beowulf.org/mailman/listinfo/beowulf
