RE: Central Reporting/Monitoring

[Steve Bergeon]

One of the scripts that we have cfengine run will log a 'happy running' line to
syslog on completion. Since syslog entries are sent to a central system for
parsing it gives easily checked feedback on the agents health.

For more than the binary did/didn't run, the same script reads the latest log in
outputs and puts the anomalies into syslog.

I have done one braver thing
  Than all the worthies did,
And yet a braver thence doth spring,
  Which is, to keep that hid.
