Major Upgrades Include Automatic Change Tracking and Remediation
January 29, 2007 (Press Release) --
Annapolis, MD — January 29, 2007 — Zenoss, Inc. today announced a new version of its open source Zenoss Core enterprise network and systems monitoring software that adds automatic configuration change tracking, automated remediation of IT infrastructure problems, and other features that are critical for effective IT management. Zenoss Core is the most complete IT management solution available as a free downloadable open source product, providing powerful, integrated and easily deployed inventory, availability, performance and event monitoring capabilities.
“Release 1.1 addresses two key challenges: configuration change tracking and automatic remediation of failures. We focused on change tracking in particular after surveying attendees at the recent Large Installation Systems Administrator conference in Washington D.C., who told us that configuration tracking is their second most pressing systems management need after monitoring,” said Project Leader Erik Dahl. “This release significantly raises the bar in open source IT management.”
New features in Zenoss Core 1.1 include:
Automated Change Tracking
- Automatically detect and log changes to network and server configurations
- View reports of changes at a node level or group level over time
- Automatically notify operators of configuration changes using alerting rules
Automatic Remediation
- Build policy rules for automatic remediation steps based on availability issues, performance issues or alarms
- Automatic execution of standard actions (e.g. start/stop) or custom remediation scripts
Expanded Reports & Export
- New cross-system reports on availability, performance metrics and event classes added to the standard report library
- Supports export of all reports to flat files for importing and analysis in spreadsheet tools and other systems
User Interface Enhancements
- 100% administrable through web-based GUI, including viewing of Zenoss log files, starting/stopping Zenoss daemons, etc.
- Ability to zoom and pan time-series performance graphs through an AJAX component for easier problem identification and analysis
