[原创]Zenoss Core 2.3.2入门--安装

Zenoss Core 2.3.2在openSUSE 11上的安装说明

Zenoss做为一款优秀的开源网管软件不测试是不行的，Zenoss对自己的定义是：Commercial Open Source Application, Systems and Network Monitoring.
关于Zenoss和其他开源NMS的对比请参阅：[转载]开源网管软件对比 - Nagios OpenNMS Zenoss

环境准备 & 下载

我的系统是openSUSE11，安装在VMWare WorkStation6.5上，分配了400M内存，关掉Xwindows和大部分系统默认的Service。
注意：磁盘空间至少要留出500M，我第一次安装出错，发现磁盘空间满了（当时还有300多M可用）。没想到Open Source的东东也会这么大。

登录Zenoss的网站，下载Zenoss Core 2.3.2 32bit Stack Installer for openSUSE 10.3，下载安装的包同时，进入doc，顺手将《Zenoss Installation Guide》和《Getting Started With Zenoss》也下载了。

includes all dependencies，原来Zenoss将所有需要的东东都打好包了，现在知道为什么需要这么大磁盘空间了吧，这个bin包有78M。

没有发现for openSUSE11的，不过后来从文档和实际操作来看，Zenoss向上兼容，这个不必担心。

安装：

看了Installation Guide，感觉安装异常简单。

将zenoss-stack-2.3.2-linux.bin赋予执行权限：a+x，然后运行就OK了。

# ./zenoss-stack-2.3.2-linux.bin

进他自己带的数据库看看，注意:zenoss将自己带的Mysql端口改为了3307。
opensuse:/disk/zenoss/mysql/bin # ./mysql -P3307 -uroot -pxxxxxx

就建了个events库？不知道在后面的使用是否还有新的库建立

总结：
什么叫商业化的open source，大家有所体会了吧，这种傻瓜式的安装几乎可以等同于Windows了。
Zenoss的收费版本有Professional和Enterprise，网站里有三个版本的对比 ，呵呵，好东西还是要花银子的，不知道Zenoss现在有没有来自中国的客户？

明天继续学习配置……
