I am a system admin. But I only admin 1 server. It's not worth my time to learn every in and out of all the tools that are out there. There's just so many tools and so many options. So I depend apone threads like this to tell me what scripts and tools are actually usefull. I don't have the time to test every script just to handle 1 server.
I can see that many of you already have your favorite monotoring software. But very few of you say why your choice is better. It seems that your choice is only better cause you have already installed it. Same reason people use windows so much. It's already installed so why change.
