Hi All,
Would like to know Is ClearOS or ClearVM monitoring possible from Solarwinds?
ClearOS will have similar characteristics to CentOS monitoring through Solarwinds. (http://www.solarwinds.com/topics/centos-monitoring)
ClearVM may be more difficult to monitor but should follow the same mechanisms as for monitoring a Debian install. You will need to have already initialized a hard drive and be running from the disk instead of the LiveVisor. If you are running ClearVM as an app from under ClearOS then you can follow any parameters that you would for monitoring libvirtd as a service or for disk space. For each of the various virtualized devices under ClearOS, you would need to use the methods proscribed for their platforms.
Hi daveloper so this means that if we need complete visibility on ClearVM or ClearOS, we will have to work with them to better understand and how the monitoring setup can be established...Correct?
That is correct. ClearOS/VM is just CentOS under the hood with an nice webUI for administration. You'd want to use the Linux Agent to monitor it. However, certain specifics of that ClearOS may or may not be readily available via SNMP out of the box. e.g. If you're using it for DNS, it should be be leverage BIND under the hood. So you'd most likely want to find a Bind template. Certain firewall modules use IP Tables, so you'd want to find a template for that.
If there isn't a template that you can find it would have to be a custom linux script in bash/python/perl.
