Thank you willard for your answer, we know Zenoss is a good product but we want 
to explore other alternatives, could you or anyone elaborate on the pros and 
cons of the different monitoring products that are available?

Thank You

Asunto: Re: Cloudstack monitoring

My organization uses Zenoss as our monitoring solution. We leverage the good, 
but horribly documented, API to automate the addition/deletion of new 
VM’s/devices. Minimizing the management requirements of the monitoring 
solution. Aside from Zenoss, Zabbix, Nagios, and Pandora are all good choices. 
Each, has their pro’s and con’s.

You’re always going to face management problems in a public cloud. one quick 
and dirty way to ensure easy management would be to enable SNMP polling on all 
of your templates and monitor your entire public block. It’s lazy, but it would 
minimize the time need to manage new VM’s in your monitoring solution.

Hello Everyone,
Im looking for a Cloudstack monitoring solution to use in a production 
environment for Kumo a public cloud service provider in Colombia, currently we 
use Zenoss but we want to change to a different solution, does anyone can 
recommend any solution , product , service anything?  it does not matter if it 
is open source or not. Or do anyone have any insight on how monitoring should 
be done in cloudstack?
Thank you for your help
