A mindstorm place to gather ideas for new projects. Somewhat like a pre-incubator project.
Configuration
Requirements
- A mechanism for managing configuration.
- Archive
- Version and change control
- Some sort of "schema definition" to be able to validate configuration
Ideas
- Using something like SVN as a backend might ease versioning data.
Proposals
- Use XML as configuration base
- Implementing the XML configuration with XMLbeans for the SNMP and common server was quite easy.
Alarming and Events
Requirements
- Storing events
- Subscribing to events of interest
- Searching in event archive
- User Interface
- Test Client
- Test Server
