Check for the IBM ds4000 series totalstorage cabinett - FIX

[Giorgio Zarrelli]

Hi,

yes you can. I splitted all the major files in smaller files and nested
directories, so it's easier for me to manage all the services and hosts.

And I assure you, I have an heavy "split" configuration.

> -customer force us to do that
> -the number of monitored servers for each customer will never grow up
> -the services to monitor for each server are the same (raid hw/sw,
> disk usage etc)
> -we need a completly centralized monitoring structure
>
> For last sentence I thought to use the arguments option on NRPE (yes,

> Besides, to solve the problem of NAT with NRPE I'll do DNAT on

> more specific common variabiles for that customer's server like the
> public IPAddress that will be the same for each customer's server.
> -servern.cfg in wich there will be some very specific server variables
> like nrpe port (read up).
