After a couple of hours in the sandbox with the new cross platform extension beta I must say it is very cool and I think this will end a lot of discussions. There is never a question which product to choose\u00c2\u00a0to monitor\u00c2\u00a0Microsoft technologies, but I often discuss Linux and non-Microsoft monitoring with customers that are about to but a new monitoring solution. Here are a couple of screenshots from today<\/p>\n
In\u00c2\u00a0the screenshots you can see how I first receive an alert regarding the syslog daemon on my SUSE machine (SLES-10-SP1-i386-DVD1.iso). I then simple restart the daemon from health explorer, really nice!<\/p>\n
