We use this on our clusters to good effect though we use batched ssh calls to tell each cluster node to run their backups but it is all called from the same script on our head node so that only one backup opperation is running at a time. It makes the logs cleaner and we don't run into a problem with dozens of boxes all trying to sync data back to the head node at the same time and slowing things down.

I like backuppc (http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/) which is a little
more than a monitor, but it will email you if things go wrong and has a
nice web page to check.
