What it does
Cassandrix monitors disk space usage on Unix systems. It performs
a df -k
on machine and notifies a list of people if the
disk consumption exceeds a configurable leve.
Installation
There is an INSTALL document that walks you through installation.
AOLserver and Oracle are required.
What's Different in Cassandrix 2.0?
We found the two-tiered master/slave architecture of cassandrix 1.0 to
be extremely cumbersome to deploy. It was re-written to run independently on
each machine with no interdependencies between systems. We use
Cassandrix 2.0 to monitor a number of our development and production
machines. We also use NetSaint to do service and disk space
monitoring.
