Hi Henrik
<snip>
Sorry again for bothering the other...
To me, this is informational message.

We are currently busy to set up a "Global Monitoring" project in which we are now in the phase to decide which way to go:
use Open source tools (Hobbit, bigbrother (not really open source), Nagios
Outsourcing the whole monitoring/alarming to an external provider
Use Enterprise class systems (Tivoli, MicroMuse, CA, HP Openview...)
After our last discussion it's getting clear that we will recommend using an Open source tool, preferably Hobbit, as the 1. option to the management. There are a couple of reasons for that, I guess you should best know it :)
So looks like you guys came to conclusion of selecting Hobbit by discussions, correct ? Is there a requirement analysis document that can be shared ?
I really like to see how Hobbit compare to Tivoli,CA .. enterprise class systems. Management would like to see unbiased review of monitoring systems.
I made an attempt to do some comparison but turn out I don't have enough time and knowledge to do a fair comparsion.

Is there a third-party that can spent time on doing this task ?
