[Xymon] Raspberry Pi Xymon Server

[Vernon Everett]

Hi

If you are trying to get Xymon running on a Raspberry Pi, as an academic
exercise, then go for it, and read no further.
If your purpose is to get it running on a small system that can sit in a DC
completely unnoticed, with minimal power requirements, then you may want to
look at one of these.

They run a stripped down Ubuntu, wireless or wired NIC, and can take
external storage if your requirements exceed SD capacity.

Regards
Vernon
