Monitoring
Subnets. What is a subnet? How does it work?
Subnetting is the process of dividing a network into several smaller, independent subnets. Each subnet is a portion of the core network that follows a specific logic. We know the definition of the use of subnets in local networks that we could use in our company,...

New static graphs (not all in life is Flash!)
I've rewrite some code on old 2.x code for static graphs. New graphs are more useful, and has been added a much better support for stacked graphs (line and area). See some samples here, I hope this help to provide a nice reporting :-). Also...

Using PandoraFMS to monitor LOM-enabled hardware

New asynchronous mode in Windows agent
Maybe one of the worst things of Pandora FMS is that it's not oriented to real time systems. The way Pandora works is running periodically a bunch of checks and processes that give a snapshot of the system in a specific time. This week we gave...
PandoraFMS vs some other monitoring systems
One of the most typical questions in the monitoring systems is: "What can PandoraFMS offer that Nagios (Zabbix, Zennos etc) doesn't?" It's always a pain to start a flame about that, so, for all of you who want to read some comparisons between...
