Features The features added by this ZenPack can be summarized as follows. They are each detailed further below. Discovery and periodic remodeling of Neighbor Switches using CDP/LLDP. Monitoring of MAC Address table or Forwarding Table for each network interface of device. Event suppression based on MAC Address table. Discovery CDP/LLDP based collector plugin zenoss.snmp.CDPLLDPDiscover performs discovery of switches located nearby a selected device. Monitoring The ZenPack binds Layer2Info monitoring templates to the /Network device class in Zenoss. This activates monitoring of Layer 2 MAC forwarding tables for devices under that class. On the detail view of Interfaces components, the Clients MAC addresses subpanel is added with a list of MAC addresses. Those addresses are grouped by the client device they belong to. Event suppression When an upstream switch goes down, a flood of Device is DOWN! events for every device in an affected subnet can be generated. This ZenPack adds a zenevent plugin which suppresses such subsequent events for leaf devices. As a result, a system administator receives only a primary, core error event.
This ZenPack provides RRD templates and command parsers for monitoring Linux hosts.
MS Exchange Monitoring
MS Message Queue
MS SQL Server
This ZenPack allows for monitoring of memcached. See the Usage section for details on what is monitored. This ZenPack previously existed as a commercial-only extension to Zenoss called ZenPacks.zenoss.MemcachedMonitor. Upon being released as open source its name was changed to better match today's standards. There already exists a very good community ZenPack for memcached by braudel. As far as I can see there is no compelling reason to use this version over that. Ultimately I'd like to see the ZenPacks come together to reduce confusion. At the time that this ZenPack was originally written, the community version didn't exist.
ZenPacks.zenoss.Microsoft.Windows module
This ZenPack provides support for monitoring Microsoft Windows. Monitoring is performed using the Windows Remote Management (WinRM) and Windows Remote Shell (WinRS) to collect Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) and perfmon data.
MySqlMonitor provides a method for pulling performance metrics from the MySQL database server (http://www.mysql.com/) directly into Zenoss without requiring the use of an agent. This is accomplished by utilizing the MySQL client library to connect to the database remotely. The following metrics will be collected and graphed for MySQL server. * Command Statistics (SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE) * Select Statistics (Scan, Range Check, Range Join, Full Join) * Handler Statistics (Keyed & Unkeyed Reads, Writes, Updates, Deletes) * Network Traffic (Received & Sent)
