For monitoring lovers, For lovers of operational visibility, For lovers of having everything under control… Comes… Monitoring with Centreon – Part II in a podcast for YOU, where we will talk about visualizations and business!
Today in “A Podcast for IT” we have a talk about Centreon, We talk about what it is, What you can offer us, How it can be assembled, Things to keep in mind, What we can monitor, how… And above all, how we can exploit and grow the infrastructure monitoring layer.
A historic feature of NagVis is the possibility of having a quick map with all our monitored Hosts, An automap! And it looks great if we first configure the dependencies between the hosts correctly. In less than 5 In a few minutes we will have a different map that you may be interested in!
At last, Last document in this super interesting series! Where we can measure the SLA offered by our Business and the time it has been offering service, we will also see how to transfer this Business monitoring to interactive maps with NagVis; in addition to carrying out impact analysis on our Business, where we can analyze the critical points of our business!
Part 2! We're going to keep shaping this… Once you more or less have documented on paper or Excel (or however you prefer) this hierarchy of Services that we saw in Part 1 of our Business Service Monitoring, We will therefore proceed with the following, which will be the installation of the Plugin in Nagios, followed by its configuration already in Centreon to be able to use it!
Well, Well… I wanted to start with this type of posts and let's see how far we can go with our Nagios!! In a series of 3 documents we will see how to measure the SLA offered by different layers of our organization. We will not only use Nagios to monitor our Infrastructure Layer, we can scale by leveraging this foundation and monitor your Company's Operational Services, This is achieved by interrelating the infrastructure services already monitored with departmental needs, even monitoring the Business Service provided by your company.
Very good! If you feel like drawing and taking your monitoring to a new dimension, This is your document! With NagVis we can have fully customized real-time status maps! We will design maps that help us detect problems, to document our platform, Interconnectivity maps, both LAN and WAN… maps that we will make with Visio or PhotoShop and we will easily make them come to life!
I wanted to bring you a monitoring solution for all those who don't know it, It's a ready-made Linux distribution with almost everything you'll need already installed. It is FAN, that is, Fully Automated Nagios which, as its name suggests, has Nagios, Centreon and Nagvis among others already installed!
Let's start getting more out of monitoring, Something fun and enjoyable to watch, at least something different and it doesn't have to be as technical as it has been until now. We are going to integrate into our Nagios and/or Centreon a layer of visualization of interactive maps or drawings, it is nothing more than taking the monitored items to fully customized live drawings, are drawings of logical schemes, of photos of the DPC, SMTP traffic… of what our imagination gives us!
