(Hi Michael et al, is this announcement an appropriate post to BALUG? We don't want to be perceived as spamming. Thanks! -Peter)
Announcing the inaugural meeting of the Monitoring SIG next Tuesday, October 10 at 7PM (in conjunction with BayLISA, the local Large Installation System Administrators chapter). They'll be a short overview presentation on Open Source monitoring tools and and then we'll open it up for a discussion of issues people want to cover in the SIG. All interested parties are invited (nay, heartily encouraged!) to attend.
Here's the text-based announcement: feel free to forward it as you see fit:
-----------------------------------------------------
What: Inaugural Monitoring SIG Meeting
Who: Anyone interested in IT monitoring issues and tools
When: Tuesday, October 10 2006, 7PM
Where: GroundWork Open Source, 139 Townsend St., San Francisco
How: 139 Townsend St. is very near AT&T Park. It is two blocks from the CalTrain Depot. Take the MUNI N trolley "inbound" to 2nd and King (ballpark stop) or take the 15 or 30 buses crosstown. Free evening street parking can usually be found.
We'll have a brief presentation and then brainstorm about ways to build the finest sys admin/IT tools for monitoring and how this SIG can facilitate that. Food (probably pizza) and drinks (definitely pop) will be provided by GroundWork.

Let me know if you have any questions. Cheers, -Peter
