I'm looking for some system monitoring software. In the past, I have always heard Nagios referred to in a positive way. This might be what I need. Let me define: 1) Needs to run a shell script every 10 minutes or so and check the return status. If it fails, send a page. 2) Have a web interface where system admins can see the status of the servers. 3) Have a button on the web page where system admins can run a script on the server manually. I think the 3rd requirement is the difficult one. As always, I appreciate your help and value your input. :)
OpenNMS (http://www.opennms.org) can do the first 2 and a lot more if you have enough servers to justify the configuration effort. For the 3rd one, you would have to do some custom programming.
