Opsview has introduced the Opsview Puppet Module, which automatically registers compute instances for monitoring within Opsview Monitor.
Automation , How to. Introducing Opsview Cloud. It is essentially an enterprise IT window onto performance and availability, watching hosts and services, alerting users to problems or issues and allowing them to track their resolution. IT environments are becoming increasingly diverse with a mix of physical, virtual and cloud environments as IT departments continually strive to do more with less.
Using a mix of proprietary IT management tools to monitor these environments causes unnecessary complexity which could lead to slower fault resolution times and hamper overall monitoring effectiveness. As an open source developed suite , and unlike more expensive proprietary alternatives, Opsview allows end users direct access to the source code, enabling IT departments to make changes to the root system. This enables a business to optimize individual IT monitoring requirements, for instance, tweaking status views so that they can be graphically represented in a way that delivers meaningful, at-a-glance information depending on the level of detail required.
So Opsview Enterprise edition includes software maintenance to ensure you receive critical software fixes quickly and with minimum disruption to business. Where proprietary software development is closed to all but the biggest enterprise customers, the Opsview community lies at the heart of our development model, supporting over 15, users.
Their feedback is invaluable when developing and refining new features that continuously improve the suite. The variety of different environments monitored by the community enables the identification of the widest range of problems possible before any code is certified for inclusion in Opsview Enterprise edition. Opsview is an open source application that encourages tight, two-way integration with other systems such as ticketing and help-desk consoles. In doing so, Opsview offers a cost-effective way to upgrade your core monitoring and performance management capabilities with minimal disruption to existing procedures and processes.
Another key consideration for the value of any IT monitoring system is not just only how easy it is to use, but also how simple it is to take on in the first place. The use of standard frameworks such as Catalyst and Perl DBI make development straightforward and developer documentation supported by the strong open source community is freely available online. Opsview also provides APIs for system configuration, monitoring data re-use, and the automatic population and update of host information.
This is particularly useful for integrating Opsview Enterprise edition with other IT management tools. The open nature of Opsview locks down cost because your IT department is not supporting unique versions, nor is an army of consultants required to just carry out an upgrade. It also means display of system status information on everything from a company intranet or website, to the publishing of performance and availability metrics on a customer portal is possible from a single monitoring solution rather than multiple point solutions generating siloed reports and metrics.
Opsview gives you the flexibility and control of a home-grown system, perfectly tailored to your needs, but with commercial support, development roadmap and community feedback platform. However, mission critical business applications and services demand high performance and availability.
This is where Opsview Enterprise edition comes in to its own. From Airports to Banks , Service Providers and even the Military , Opsview Enterprise stands its ground in the most rigorous monitoring environments.
With integrated redundancy, high availability and scalable architecture, Opsview Enterprise edition is designed to help organisations toward uninterrupted business operations.
Unlike proprietary solutions, the commercial version of Opsview offers entry points for all types and sizes of business. SME and large enterprise IT estates can get professionally supported, total monitoring coverage for disparate systems without having to part with hundreds of thousands a year for the privilege.

Since changing that I seem to have had no further re-occurrences of the No update prompt. I am aware that each time I update Opsview I am going to have to make this change until I manage to move the databases to their own host and rebuild the master server onto new hardware.

Setting up distributed monitoring in mission critical production environments is a complex task; configuration can be challenging and mistakes costly. Opsview Enterprise edition and Opsview Syncmaster module make deploying an enterprise monitoring system easy and reduce the risks associated with migrating configuration objects from development to production environments.
Any configuration you need to make is carried out in one place, no jumping between screens or applications required. Templates in Opsview can help you maintain consistent monitoring configurations throughout your system.
Any changes you make to a template will affect the whole configuration, giving you a quick way to make consistent, controlled changes to your distributed monitoring system.
In Opsview you can quickly configure identical objects by using the clone function. In large environments chances are you will have lots of identical pieces of equipment such as network devices. Rather than having to manually enter configuration information for each one you can simply clone an existing device as many times as you need, saving time and reducing errors. This takes away much of the time consuming configuration involved with a complex distributed monitoring system and reduces the chances of input errors which could, in some other systems, cause a malfunction.
Attributes In Opsview help you maintain checks on complex configurations. Instead of configuring service checks for individual hosts you can create one check and use attributes to carry out checks on each host. For example you might want a check on VMhosts which could be running 20 or 30 virtual machines. With attributes you can set up one service check on a guest VM and use attributes to reference all the virtual machines on the host. Find out more about setting up attributes in Opsview.
Notification profiles help you keep on top of your distributed monitoring by making sure your team get the notifications they need when they need them. You can decide who gets notified, why they get notified and how. For example you can set up your profile to get e-mail notifications during normal working hours if your system is in a warning state, but for more critical notifications, such as a system outage, an SMS can be sent to an onsite-engineer.
Opsview Syncmaster module helps you follow change management procedures and takes away the risk of errors caused by untested system configurations. With Opsview Syncmaster you eliminate costly downtime and speed up system configuration, all from one single point of control. Start off by using Opsview Syncmaster to see which hosts are being monitored. From the Opsview Syncmaster interface you can see detailed summary information about your monitored systems, such as current status, which slave servers are configured for monitoring, if configurations are up to date or even the performance latency of the monitoring system.
From here you can also directly access the configuration UI of each host. Opsview Syncmaster enables you to easily move objects between environments, whether on-premise, off-site, or virtualised, by dragging and dropping from one environment to another, e.
One of the key strengths of Opsview Syncmaster is the ability to synchronise objects between servers. You can synchronise one or multiple objects, either by using an existing profile or by creating a new one.
For example you may have created a new user and want to synchronise the user across all systems or to migrate an application in a test environment across to production. Simply select the source system and the target system and decide which configuration object s you want to synchronise. Opsview Syncmaster then safely migrates the chosen settings between environments with just a click of a mouse.
