Sysadmin monitoring and alert tools?

thanks for sharing

OPSView looks interesting http://www.opsview.com/technology/guides-help/monitoring-examples/application-monitoring

OPSView install http://docs.opsview.com/doku.php?id=opsview-core:centos-installation and http://www.opsview.com/technology/guides-help/opsview-installation/centos

 

Cool http://www.opsschool.org/

 

@palPalani I think posted about Mmonit http://mmonit.com/monit/ ages back on G+ Community at https://plus.google.com/107067627261591015942/posts/Sggy7NpebAt

Gist https://gist.github.com/palpalani/6535839

Seems Mmonit 5.8 is latest http://mmonit.com/monit/dist/

interesting to see if can get Monit working with Pushover notifications https://community.centminmod.com/threads/pushover.142/

edit: yup pushover API is supported http://mmonit.com/wiki/MMonit/Notification !!!

 

Mmonit gave me an idea for custom shell script to check PHP uptime and status, checkphp.sh. Will expand it to add pushover notification support https://community.centminmod.com/threads/pushover.142/

i.e. checkphp.sh against 3x PHP-FPM TCP pools www, www2 and www3.

Code:

/root/tools/checkphp.sh
/root/tools/checkphp.sh {ping|status}

Code:

/root/tools/checkphp.sh ping
pong
pong
pong

Code:

/root/tools/checkphp.sh status
pool:                 www
process manager:      ondemand
start time:           29/Jun/2014:14:04:52 +0000

thanks to @Matt idea for using constellix to check if ipv6 is working

 

Yup I alway use Uptimerobot as well monitoring and alert tools? | Centmin Mod Community

 

Nice @Floren, the Constellix is only for uptime monitoring for cpu load there's other tools. But have to check out Sealion. Thanks for sharing

 

@Floren I like

but don't think sealion likes that system has only 128MB memory - some zombied processes heh

 

it's partly due to OpenVZ and how it handles memory used it counts VIRT as used memory and with CentOS default stack size of 10M can balloon memory. Tweaked stack size for Sealion process and now memory usage is better on OpenVZ

 

yeah I use NewRelic too
