Sharingan is the monitoring solution for the AniNIX, replacing legacy, homebrew Heartbeat.

# Etymology
Sharingan is named after the mythical technique from the Naruto anime series. Sharingan confers deep insight abilities to its user, and our implementation of it will do the same for our administrators' domains.

We are considering a Greylog or rsyslog service alongside Nagios[[Category:Nagios]] to implement a security best-practice.[[Category:TODO]]

# Relevant Files and Software
Sharingan maintains all of its configuration in [file:///etc/nagios/ one directory]. You can validate the configuration there with the following.
<pre> nagios -t /etc/nagios/nagios.cfg</pre>

Sharingan can be installed from the [https://aninix.net/foundation/ConfigPackages ConfigPackages]' Sharingan Makefile. Clients will communicate over SSH, so there is a statement to make a nagios user ("make nagiosuser").

# Available Clients=See [[WebServer#Available Clients|AniNIX::Webserver's client list]].

# Equivalents or Competition=Various monitoring SaaS vendors are available, including one that Nagios sells.
