Monitoring the different Monitor tools-
 
Hi,
I am using FAN (Fully Automated Nagios)- I am quite happy with this tool. Except that I am using some other Networking tools to monitor my environment. I am searching for the a monitoring tool which is able to monitor all of my different monitoring tool.

Example- Like a web-page or a slide show view of all of my live Monitoring tool. If anyone know about this kind of application, Please let me know.

Thanks,
antnish-

I am not aware of any monitoring tool which can monitor other monitoring tools within infrastruture. I would like to mention that monitoring tools are big overhead on the infra, though am not denying they are not required in production environment. As you said that you are running FAN which I am assuming is agentless (no agents running on clients for monitoring) and some other network monitoring tools. If you add another on top of it will not only affect their performance but can also be heavy on the infra.

Instead of looking for monitoring tools I would suggest script which is light weight and run on a fixed interval of 6 hours to check the status.

Im not one to use memes for comedy, but I laughed thinking about this:

On the serious side, if you have multiple web page based monitoring tools (ie the admin interface is a webpage) you can wrap all of the sites into one site,.. using PHP or Python or just about any web programming language.

Grab a developer to do it if you have any around.
