Chris Moates' adventures in the land of Mox » Nagios http://www.mox.net The ramblings of Captain Overkill Sun, 30 May 2010 01:57:39 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 en hourly 1 Icinga http://www.mox.net/2009/05/13/icinga/ http://www.mox.net/2009/05/13/icinga/#comments Wed, 13 May 2009 18:44:09 +0000 cmoates http://www.mox.net/?p=122 Looks like Nagios finally had someone come along to fork it; there’s a new project named Icinga which promises to have better developer involement and an improved web interface, among many other improvements. This is a welcome change, and has long been needed. For more information about why they forked and why it was necessary, read their FAQ and Fork page.

I for one welcome our new overlord monitoring services. While I will probably not switch immediately over to Icinga in our production environment, you can be sure I’ll try it at home and keep a close eye on their progress.

The openness of the device vs the Sidekick really can’t be argued. There will likely never be an AIM application for any phone that is as good as the Sidekick, and I really do like my AIM. But nothing else about the phone is great. And lots of other things about Android are great.

I’ve just been playing around a little, so I don’t have anything significant to report yet. Except that the Nagios app crashes when I try to run it. So I guess I’ll be learning how to diagnose crashes soon. :)
