[18:45] :( [19:44] Whats a really good hosted monitoring tool / service? Doesnt have to be free. I am looking to run checks on web, mail, dns servers etc + up/down host notifications [19:46] To clarify, does it have to be 3rd-party, versus setting up your own off-site monitoring? [19:47] umm, people seem to like pingdom for RUM and uptime monitoring [19:47] but munin hosted on another box grabbing data from the boxes being monitored would work too [19:48] i've heard good things about this svc: https://www.serverdensity.com/server-monitoring/ [19:49] Does ARP use such a service? Or am I just confusing the paging service? up_the_irons [20:13] brycec: for setting up my own, nagios or icinga would probably be the way to go. However, I am looking for a reliable 3rd party to monitor specific services, kind of like a hosted nagios. [20:46] mnathani: there's nodeping and pingdom [20:46] there are a few more probably too. [20:50] *** jcv has joined #arpnetworks [21:44] i use exactstate for uptime monitoring. i think they can do some limited svc testing too (internet-exposed svcs) [22:20] brycec: i use pagerduty [22:45] Do they monitor individual services, a la mnathani's question? [22:46] brycec: no, we have an internal nagios that upon certain failures will alert pagerduty [22:47] up_the_irons: what happens when s* go down and ARP is in the dark? [22:49] brycec: pingdom also monitors some things and alerts pagerduty. pingdom, being offsite (obviously) and running tests in multiple locations, provides enough alerting for our "oh shitballs" scenario [22:49] So that's another +1 to Pingdom [23:03] yeah [23:17] Thanks: mercutio brycec up_the_irons & m0unds - Some interesting services / solutions I need to check out [23:37] m0unds: adding first2know.net to the mix [23:37] "only" http/ping/dns but thats a feature in my book :)
