Which is best server monitoring (Traffic ) tool ?
 

Hi friends,

Which is best server monitoring (Traffic ) tool ?

Can you provide some form of monitoring on this server or recommend any server-side applications that could monitor the status, in high detail, including traffic, etc?

Thanks,
Ramesh

i think mandriva and ubuntu is the best

"best" for what? It depends on your requirement. I'm using Ganglia and integrating with Nagios to alert.

best as a server.. also centos and redhat

See for yourself: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compari...toring_systems

Read the OP's question. He's not asking about what is the best distro for a server, he's asking what is a good server MONITORING tool.

Mandriva wouldn't be a good choice for a server, and neither would Ubuntu (unless you used Ubuntu Server Edition).

Please don't continue to give bad advice.

There's a lot of server monitoring using opensource
but for me I recommend nagios which you can monitor traffic of your network and more.

Ubuntu is best to install nagios.


regards to all

This should help you in making your choice.
