Zenoss has released a Mac installer for Zenoss Core 2.3, the latest iteration of its IT monitoring software. Core is an open-source program used to handle the configuration of networks, servers and software, and then monitor overall performance and stability. The app operates on a modeling concept, and maps all of the available IT resources into a single entity. To add items into the system, admins can use auto-discovery, web services, XML import or manual input.

Resources maps are divided into both logical and physical groups, including systems, locations and operators. Various other features of the software include a log manager, custom dashboards and web portals, and triggered responses to custom criteria; the last can be used to cope with problems such as high traffic or absent hardware. People must contact Zenoss for a Core download link.
