History
slerena c46aef5f1e 2010-10-20 Sancho Lerena <slerena@artica.es> 
* conf/pandora_server.conf.windows: Sample conf for running pandora server
    on Windows (see windows.README).

    * lib/PandoraFMS/NetworkServer.pm: Adapted to have SNMPGET and PING functions
    redefined by each SO, this will allow to have native support on pandora
    to run under different OS (need to check FreeBSD and Solaris!). Windows
    support implemented.

    * lib/PandoraFMS/Core.pm: Removed ping functions here and moved to Tools.pm

    * lib/PandoraFMS/Tools.pm: Adapted Ping functions to work with any SO, at
    this time Linux and Windows only, need to check for Solaris and BSD.

    * util/windows.README: Small doc on how to make Pandora Server work on 
    Windows servers.

    * util/pandora_logrotate: Removed the index in the logrotation.

Pandora FMS: The Flexible Monitoring System v3.0
=================================================

http://www.pandorafms.org

How to install
--------------

Please refer to documentation on our website. This includes schemas, quick-install 
guides and how to use preconfigured packages and installers for all components.

What is Pandora FMS?
--------------------

Pandora FMS is a monitoring application to watch systems and applications.
Pandora FMS allows to know the status of any element of your bussiness systems.
Pandora FMS watches your hardware, your software, your multilayer system and, of
course, your Operating System. Pandora FMS can detect a network interface down
or the movement of any NASDAQ new technology market value. If you wish, Pandora
FMS can send a SMS message when your system or your application fails... or when
Google stock value drops below 330 US$.

Pandora FMS will adjust, like an octopus, to your systems and requirements,
because it has been designed to be open, modular, multiplattform and easy to
customize. Pandora FMS is developed for system administrators.

What else can Pandora FMS do?
-----------------------------

Pandora FMS is a monitoring tool that not only measures if a parameter is right
or wrong. Pandora FMS can quantify the state (right or wrong), or store a value
(numeric or alphanumeric) for months if necessary. Pandora FMS can measure
performances, compare values among differen systems and set alarms over
thresholds. Pandora FMS works against a Database so that it can generate
reports, statistics, SLA and meausre anything: Operating Systems, aplications
and hardware systems—such as firewalls, proxies, Databases, web servers, VPN,
routers, switches, processes, services, remote accesses to servers, etc.
everything integrated in a open and distributed architecture. Pandora FMS can be
deployed over any Operating System, with specific agents for each platform.
There are already agents for Windows (2000, XP, 2003), GNU/Linux, Solaris,
HP-UX, BSD, AIX, IPSO and OpenWRT.

Pandora FMS not only gathers information through its agents, but it can also
monitor any hardware sistem with TCP/IP connectivity —such as load balancing
systems, routers, switches, printers, etc.— through SNMP and TCP/ICMP checks.

Often the question "What kind of things can be monitored?" shows up, since
Pandora FMS can —virtually— monitor anthing, sometimes is convenient give some
specific examples. Pandora FMS can monitor any process or system that, though a
command, returns a value, and also any value inside a log file of the Operating
System.
