NSClient 1.0.8.0 Released

[Dean Bishop]

Good morning,
 
            I just had to set up a site with nagios monitoring eventlogs on
windows servers.  I did this by installing the BackLog service on each of
the windows servers configured to send all events to the nagios box.  The
nagios box acted as a syslog server.  I then configured swatch to watch for
specific things (e.g. certain events AND certain servername).  Upon finding
such an instance in the syslog file swatch executed a perl script which
formatted the event message, added the rest of the items necessary for a
nagios external command, and then pushed it into the nagios external command
file.
 
This hogs resources on the nagios box.  It would be more efficient to let
the windows servers watch for events in their own logs and then only fire
pre-formatted events at the nagios server.  This would effectively
distribute the load.
 
Later,
dean

There is some discussion around this in the Enhancements forum at
support.tsmgsoftware.com. I am trying to determine from various requests for
Event Log monitoring exactly what should be implemented. If you would
participate in this discussion it would be greatly appreciated.
