The DESY Computer Center is the home of O(1000) computers supplying a wide range of different services Monitoring such a large installation is a challenge. After a long time running a SNMP based commercial Network Management System, the evaluation of a new System was started. There are a lot of different commercial and freeware products on the market, but none of them fully satisfied all our requirements.
