Bigbrother and Nagios are the most common for service availability, however neither offers good trending information, for that look at cacti (which is just a wrapper for rrdtool), or possibly the Oreon nagios interface. Ossim provides good network and security information. I have never used pandora or zenoss. I fear places that use openview and sitescope. my 0.02 On 6/8/07, John Horne <john.horne@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:

We use BB for our server monitoring, and simply add on home-grown scripts to monitor other things. Do you run BB and hobbit together? That is, integrated together on one web server/web page in some way. Otherwise, what is the advantage in using hobbit, or indeed munin, rather than just BB? I have very briefly looked at both hobbit and munin, and whilst they offer graphs of things such as cpu/memory usage, this has not really been much of a problem for us. BB reports if either is getting over-used. Other than that though, I see no real advantage to just using BB.
