My answer would be to give it a try - I'm sure that for the workload type monitoring you are talkign about you could turn down the frequency of the checks if the load is too high. It would be interesting to hear your findings on the list when you try it. Re NRPE, why do you say it would be too difficult to deploy? The method would be to get it right on one node, then set it up on other nodes using a parallel command shell, such as pdsh or cexec. You do have something like that in place I trust? John H
