Devmon

Welcome to the Devmon project hosted on GitHub.
(as Google does not index GitHub Wikis)


Introduction

We're a group of telecom engineers who have taken an interest in Devmon and Xymon. Recognizing the need for updates and bug fixes, we forked Devmon from its original Sourceforge version. Our work has been about fixing issues and making improvements, and we're grateful for the groundwork laid by previous developers. Feedback and contributions are always welcome.

Devmon offers several key features

  • Flexibility: Through the use of templates close to a DSL, making it easier to set up monitoring for new devices.
  • Efficiency: Utilizes array programming for handling data, which helps in processing information quickly.
  • Performance: Built with Perl5 and supports multi-threading, ensuring fast alarm detection.
  • Scalability: Able to monitor over 500 devices in a minute, showing its capability to manage large networks.
  • Integration: Works well with Xymon, providing a comprehensive monitoring solution.
  • Growth Potential: We're open to adding more features and adapting Devmon to meet user needs.

Who We Are

  • Though we're engineers by trade, we're not professional developers.
  • We work on Devmon to create something useful, primarily focusing on what we can test ourselves.
  • We're aware that we might make mistakes or introduce changes that could affect users unexpectedly
  • English isn't our first language, so please bear with us.
  • Use Devmon understanding these points.

Roadmap

  • We plan to focus on features and improvements suggested by the community, particularly those tagged as “enhancement” in GitHub issues.
  • If you have a feature request or feedback, feel free to open an issue or comment on existing discussions.
  • We value your input to help shape Devmon's future.

Support

  • There is not an official commercial support, if you really want, we can do some.
  • If you find a bug and create issue on GitHub: as you are contributing to the project, we will help you.

Contribution

We are open to anyone who wants to contribute and we will support you! So do not hesitate to contact us through github issues

  • We will do our best to help you
  • If you have an idea or if you want to developp something, please do it and/or post it on github issues (no restriction, you can also improve this wiki: Devmon Issues)
  • We will try to integrate your work as much a possible.
  • You will integrate a “contributors/developper” acknowledgement list (and maybe more) if you want
  • Try to follow some “Developper Guide Lines

Devmon will continue to be GPL release

There are no plan to add any commercial version or modules over the next 10 years. (dixit in 2021)
