[Xymon] mainframe monitoring

[Root, Paul T]

You'd have to define what "the mainframe" is.

You can look at the source in ./build to see Makefiles for various systems, including generic.  And you can try to build it.

Alternatively, there is an extension called 'rclient' that can ssh into a remote server and run commands for you to pull data out of machines.
What it does is push a script out to the server in question and then run it, collecting the data. I use it for a Tripplite terminal server.

Does anyone know if there is a client for the mainframe, or some way to monitor when a mainframe is up and the status besides a basic ping test?
