We do run OpenNMS as well, and it's a good tool, but I was interested in something /like/ nagios that does monitoring and alerting.

I'm not sure I understand the distinction or why you'd need both. OpenNMS is like nagios in some ways, different in some.


Well, the OpenNMS version we have is older, and it's sitting on a Debian Sarge box that I want to blow away and install Fedora on. But that's not the reason for the question. We run nearly every monitoring tool out there, and my boss is extremely picky. He doesn't really like any of them completely. They all have flaws in his mind so he wants to see what else might be available now, that either might not have been 4 years ago, or has greatly improved since then.

Well, OpenNMS has certainly improved recently and is still being developed rapidly. Don't draw any conclusions from seeing an older version. Also, it is very configurable. It does the obvious stuff out of the box but can be extended in an assortment of ways. Plus, if you can use one of the packaged versions it is much easier to install than a few years ago.
