[pve-devel] Monitoring services on VM's and CT's

[Michael Rasmussen]

Hi all,

I have been thinking some time to add some service monitoring
capabilities to pve using an installed monit daemon on a VPS. Access
to the monit daemon on a VPS is available through the monit webserver
using the option _status?format=xml. The output from the webserver is
nicely encapsulated by this Perl module:
http://search.cpan.org/~pallotron/Monit-HTTP-0.01/lib/Monit/HTTP.pm

What I had in mind was to add an extra tab to the cluster view as well
as an extra tab for each VM or CT to visualize the current status for
each configured VM or CT.

A configuration panel for each VM and CT will also be required to
configure and activate/deactivate monitoring. The monit daemon itself
must be manually installed on every VM and CT.

What do you think of this proposal?
