icinga
building a large scaled monitoring system for a customer with icinga 1.4.0 + pnp4nagios 0.6 (bulk mode with npcd), db logging. it will monitor very different stuff …. from servers to network, from esx(i) to linux machines, from firewalls to printers … good to see that all the needed software comes from the debian stable repositories (non-free). once again debian FTW !
listen !
macht ihr den scheißdreck, weil ihr blöd seid ?
they`re so right ….
say hello debian wheezy !
today i upgraded my workstation to debian testing aka wheezy with kernel 2.6.38-2-amd64. some problems with the mysql-server-5.1 and with vmware workstation 7.1.4 but overall ok. ( vmware patch : http://www.linuxinsight.com/vmware-workstation-7.1.3-runs-great-on-linux-kernel-2.6.37.html )
vmware
just updated some esxi hosts, merged a snapshot with a flatfile vm, switched 17 servers to different esxi hosts – vmware is a good product. now we can do even online backups with esxi 4.1 – ghettoVCB.sh http://communities.vmware.com/
docs/DOC-8760
one important thing left so say: never touch or move vms with snapshots ^^
