I am a pretty hardcore ZenOSS user.. We use it to monitor over 1000 devices in different fashions - using a combination of SNMP (Linux), WMI (windows) and SSH (Unix/Aix). While there is a slight learning curve to get everything working the way you want - it is, in my opinion, the most powerful open source NMS. It is a very active project with excellent community (and even commercial) support.
I'd definitely suggest that you take a look at it.

I have to rebuild a new Nagios box and thought this might be a good time to migrate away. I use snmp mostly for everything but with the fork Nagios endured I wonder about putting any more effort into the project.
I probably should look at OpenNMS again, but the other options I think might work are Icinga (Should be trivial to migrate) or Zenoss or maybe even Zabbix?
Anyone have experience in Nagios and care to share comparisons with similar projects with strong community involvement?
Also, anyone currently running OpenNMS that can comment on the learning curve and level of flexibility coming from a Nagios user?
Thanks! jlc _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
