README for AMAAPS
Purpose: To take entries from the database used by OpenAudit and
insert them into the database used by NagioSQL so that
new hosts will be monitored automatically by Nagios.
Once new hosts are in the database, trigger a file write
so that config files for Nagios will be updated and the
service is ready to be reloaded.
Implementation: Two MySQL databases are accessed: OpenAudit and
db_nagiosql_v3. First, servers that are running Microsoft
Windows Server operating systems are selected and added
to the windowsservers hostgroup in Nagios. Then, the following
software is detected and added to a hostgroup for each:
Exchange, SQL Server, Lotus Domino.
The initial platform of choice will be Alpine Linux, however the code should be portable to other *NIX OSes as well.
