[op5-users] Merlin? What is it?

[Gabriel - IP Guys]

Mr Gabriel said,

"So, to clarify, how many systems can be connected to the Merlin
daemon?"

Mr Andreas Ericsson replied,

So the real answer is "more than you can possibly imagine, although
you'll run out of bandwidth if you really, really try"

Mr Andreas Ericsson - I salute the above statement, it's almost like a
challenge! I think I'm going to like the Merlin project.

It would be so nice, if I could just build a system, and tell it to
connect to a daemon on my client nodes, and retrieve their current
status, (which is nagios/op5), but it would be beautiful, if each of
those systems dumped their data and logs into a database backend, and
also retrieved all their hosts details from that same database, at least
that would mean that I would never really have to reconfigure my setup,
and I could just add monitoring nodes with very minimal
configuration....


... well, I guess an Admin can dream!
