Operating System / Re: Thoughts on CentOs
« on: July 17, 2013, 04:17:00 pm »
In the course of writing my thesis paper I had a lot of experience withe Cent OS 6.3 (server) and a little bit with desktop.


The server is one of the most stable linux server OS's I've ever used. Very nice documentation, pretty small footprint on the harddrive(the minimal iso). SELinux can cause issues if not configured properly or disabled, but that holds true for any system with SELinux. Not sure which is "stabler" Cent OS or Debian Stable.


The desktop is ages behind the popular distribution in terms of out of the box driver support and flashy new features, but that is to be expected.


Also Fedora for me is utter crap and has always been utter crap.

Am I misunderstanding how PhysX works? I thought its purpose is to offload physical computation from the CPU a Nvidia GPU?

As far as I know Nvidia GPU's can accelarate physical enviornment computation(PhysX). Check the PhysX software and the Nvidia drivers. I think you either have to enable it or disable it. I have not had Nvidia in a long while...

Well we did a little research beforehand and found that Check_MK probably involves the least configuration of all of them. You can get a demo version from their main website which come with everything pre-installed. Their desktop/ server plugin is quite nice and can be easily extended. Very comprehensive documentation. :)

Hello,


Did not have that much time this couple of weeks to help you. Anyway, since Nagios has been out of active development for some time now and you want to do distributed monitoring I suggest you check into Check_MK.


This is an open-source plugin that sits on top of Nagios and provides a better check capabilities than Nagios and a much better web interface. The website includes everything you need to know to get it running, administrate and extend it.
