EDDIE-Tool 0.31 has just been released.
http://eddie-tool.net/
What is it ?
The EDDIE-Tool is an intelligent UNIX monitoring tool
written entirely in Python. It provides system, network
and security monitoring features, with an extensive
configuration facility for defining customized monitoring
rules.
What is new ?
Major new features added are directive dependencies,
programmable action call periods, and access to previously
collected data within directive rules. Also many more smaller
updates such as improved Linux memory and swap usage
statistics, more file checks, and support for remote SMTP servers.
Why is it interesting to Python users ?
Besides system and network administrators, Python users may
find EDDIE-Tool interesting as it is an example of a threaded,
multi-platform software package, providing easy access to
system statistics and using Python's power to offer a dynamic
and programmable rules engine.
Regards,
Chris
