Downloads :: CMDB.info :: An Open Source Approach to Configuration Management

VMware Virtual Image Server technology is the formating for most of the downloads. The build of the servers is a fairly time consuming event, and is never as straight forward as detailed in the build guides. If your unfamilar with the VM Technology have a review of their site. These images will run under their free distributions of VMPlayer and VMServer. You will find most of the download links will take you straight to download from Sourceforge. The downloads for ecdbtools and Nmap2Mysql have been zipped with 7 ZIP. This is a great compression tool for zipping files. Its achieved a further 25% reduction in file size. View the 7 Zip details later in this section for the link to the download.

TIP: Logon to the server and run the command "ifconfig" to get the IPaddress. (The Nmap2Mysql and ecdbtools Guests have the server user name set as "root" and password is set to "passw0rd" . This is only if you need to gain direct access to server console to get the IPaddress. For this information on other guests you may need to access install instructions at the specific websites.) All functionality should then be available under a web browser. ie: http://your-ipaddress/

The ECDB Toolset

The ecdbtools-1.0 is a VM Guest based on Ubuntu, it's a manually configured LAMP build thats provides for the functionality detailed in the build guide. The primary tools are Nagios, Oreon, Nmap2Mysql, The Owl Document Management system, The OCS Inventory System, Post Nuke Calendar as well PHPBB2 chat system for collaboration within your technical teams. Integration has been designed by the CMDB.info Team.

Nmap2Mysql

Nmap2Mysql is a VM Guest based on Ubuntu, it's a manually configured LAMP build thats scans your network and provides an asset based report with as much technical detail required to begin to populate your CMDB. Access to the collected data is unrestricted, but you are prompted for authentication to scan and perform admin functions. User names are "scan" & "admin" both with the password of "passw0rd".

Zenoss

Zenoss is a Web-based "Open Source Network and Systems Monitoring System" which provides for some more granular analysis beyond what has been provided in the ECDB tool set. Well worth a look at the downloads page to see what additional componentns you can add to your overall system.

Project Open

Project Open is a Web-based "Enterprise Project Management" software for project-based organizations with 2-200 users. Project Open integrates areas such as CRM, sales, project planning, project tracking, collaboration, timesheet, invoicing and payments.

GForge

GForge is a collaborative environemt with a specific focus on application development and support activies. It compliments the group of other guests very well and allows for expansion of your configuration management practice into the grey area of where applications and infrastructure interact. It can also cover off many aspects of issue tracking and bug fixes for infrastructure or organisational areas. It has close integration with several leading source code repositories and a host of other features. Well worth a close inspection of how this suite could solve some of your problems.

7 ZIP

Due to a variety of reasons but mainly bandwidth we had to get some additonal compression of the VM Images. This is a great tool which has been very useful in reducing the overall sizes of these files. It's a quick install, but there have been a few issues with the front end. Easiest way to operate is just to right click the file you want to extract, and make your selection from the dropdown menu.
