This ZenPack leverages the libvirt API for monitoring virtualization servers (e.g. XEN, KVM, etc...). This uses the system python and libvirt python API to monitor various virtualization platforms remotely. It provides a /Server/libvirtHost device class and this module is tested using ssh as a transport for the libvirt API, it could be made to use TLS or TCP with further development. It provides a libvirtvirtualHostlist report as well. You can set zLibvirtUsername and zLibvirtConnectType to customize access to the hosts, though only qemu+ssh:// was tested at the moment. libvirt supports: * The Xen hypervisor on Linux and Solaris hosts. * The QEMU emulator * The KVM Linux hypervisor * The LXC Linux container system * The OpenVZ Linux container system * The User Mode Linux paravirtualized kernel * The VirtualBox hypervisor * The VMware ESX and GSX hypervisors * Storage on IDE/SCSI/USB disks, FibreChannel, LVM, iSCSI, NFS and filesystems
This SSH-based ZenPack supplements the Linux Monitor ZenPack and provides perf monitoring for Interfaces and adds routing and memory as well.
