Tools AIX & Nagios like application.

Hello to all.

I am working as a Linux System Administrator since 5 Years & Now,my company is going to purchase 3 numbers of IBM-P Series Server with AIX support.

We will install Oracle Database Application on AIX version 5 OS Platform. Now,my questions is:

Is it possible to install NAGIOS like application on AIX? I am fully confident with NAGIOS & I have implemented it on Linux Platform. But, for AIX, I don't know anything.

Simply,I want to monitor all my new IBM-P Series Servers from remote side. For Example : I want to check CPU Usage,Network In/Out Traffic,Hard Disk Usage & other tools of AIX,which is necessary to monitor.

If I type AIX Server IP Address, it should show me above listed items as a GUI Display.(same like Nagios showing)

Help would be great if I can get another softwares too,which I can implement on my AIX server & access then from remote side,by using AIX Server IP Address.(Web-GUI Tool)

please let me know if anyone knows.......

Advanced Thanks,
Nishith Vyas.
INDIA.

Why can't you use RedHat/SuSe on LPAR?

I'm using nagios & nrpe plugin compiled for AIX. It work really great.

check_aix_mem
check_aix_paging
check_aix_procs
check_df_main
check_df_opt
check_df_oracle
check_df_usr
