Extended Monitoring Guide
The AixMonitor ZenPack enables Zenoss to use Secure Shell (SSH) to monitor AIX hosts. Zenoss models and monitors devices placed in the /Server/SSH/AIX device class by running commands and parsing the output. Parsing of command output is performed on the Zenoss server or on a distributed collector. The account used to monitor the device does not require root access or special privileges.
Specifically, the AixMonitor ZenPack provides:
Filesystem monitoring
Network interfaces and route modeling
CPU utilization information
Hardware information (memory, # CPUs, machine serial numbers, model numbers)
OS information (oslevel command style information)
LPP and RPM information (for example, installed software)
