Servermon is a Django project with the aim of facilitating server monitoring and management through Puppet.

Servermon at this point offers two applications

1. A Web frontend to the Puppet database.
2. hwdoc: A simple datacenter hardware documentation database

If you have no idea what Puppet is, it is possible that you don't need this software. Do note however that hwdoc will still be usable even without a Puppet infrastructure

For an up to date list of the Django version we support, take a look into requirements.txt. Those are the version tested and developed for

Get the python modules:

pip install -r requirements.txt

Copy servermon/settings.py.dist to servermon/settings.py

See doc/install.rst for details.

./manage.py syncdb
./manage.py migrate

Run!

./manage.py runserver

More details in the installation tutorial.

The documentation is maintained using Sphinx (under /doc/) and is automatically generated at https://servermon.readthedocs.org/.
