What is it ?
eventd is an event manager for pikt (and other monitoring tools) that allows you to :
- send UDP events instead of mail messages from pikt alarms (not alerts). Those events are sent as XML ciphered (you can use your favorite cipher) messages via UDP, from the client (epush) to the manager (eventd),
- consolidate events together (grouping events together or discarding them when necessary)
- eventd stores events in a backend database. The database is your choice, event if it has been developped with mysql in mind. Hooks are in place to provide future advanced event correlation,
- "manage" the events via a web interface, display alerts on user umploaded maps,
- send data from your performance monitoring application to RRDTool, via special 'data' events
