Hey Guys,
So I'm setting up a IT monitoring solution for my servers. We have a bunch of servers all over the city with VPN access so I can either pull SNMP or install an agent on them and get monitoring information that way.
I setup Zabbix and it works okay. I'm trying to get uncorrectable error counts via smartctl on linux servers. It works for SATA drives but not for SAS drives. I'm wondering if anyone else has set something like this up.
I'm also considering Nagios as it might be more popular so there might be more support to get these uncorrectable error counts via Nagios plugin.
What do you guys think? I know Nagios cost like 4 grand, and Zabbix is free, so that's kind of a huge deal, but I can get the 4 grand from my company if I need too. I just want a reliable way to preemptively get the uncorrectable errors from my servers so I don't have emergencies all the freaking time, so annoying.
