1. Overview

The software should be viewed as a toolkit of Perl modules which can be used as seen fit by a sys-admin, for example:

1.1. Data-Collection Modules

1.2. Syslog Message Scanning Modules

...

1.3. Module Output Streams

1.4. Application Output Streams

1.5. Applications/Daemons

A simple application script — symon, SyMon.pm — is provided. This is a single-threaded script in which an event-loop calls each used module after its configured interval, and which sends output to the ticker, warning and trouble application output streams.

1.6. Clients

A proof-of-concept script for providing a Web-based monitoring client, wsymon, is also supplied. Alternatively, multitail makes a lightweight but excellent monitoring client!

1.7. System Abstraction Layer

There is a system-abstraction layer, provided by LocalConfig.pm, in which code which is host and/or operating-system-dependent lives.
