Zenoss is an Open Source IT infrastructure monitoring package that can identify a large number of devices on a network. The software can monitor availability, performance, events and configuration changes of devices as well as applications. It allows you to monitor multiple subnets, servers and apps. The information regarding all the resources is collected via SNMP, WMI, Telnet, SSH and Syslog components, which run as daemons. Here, we show you how you can setup Zenoss, to monitor your enterprise IT infrastructure
Before installing this software, you need to configure a few basic things on your Zenoss machine. The software runs on Linux, UNIX or Mac platforms. On top of it, you need MySQL 5.0.x which can be downloaded from http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/ mysql/ 5.0.html. You also need Python ver. 2.3.5 or higher which can be downloaded from http://www.python.org. Make sure you have assigned password to user in MySQL. You can do this by giving this command 'mysqladmin –u root –p password'. The existing password will be replaced by a password that you want to set for MySQL root user.
