[Cialug] Server Monitoring/Management

[Matt Patterson]

Sounds like a lot of people are heading down this path.  At the office, 
we have a simliar project.  We're currently evaluating zenoss, zabbix 
and opsview as the lead horses in our monitoring race.

We may go with a combination of several of the product.  Zabbix seems to 
be a great snmp poller.  Opsview handles traps well. And zenoss seems to 
do several things well, we're just wondering how many devices we can truly 
throw at it.
