Systerm Monitoring

I removed Zabbix from our environment because it was too resource
intensive (it wanted to use about 50% cpu on a quad core 2.4GHz, 8GB RAM
machine) just to monitor a few dozen servers. Maybe I could have done
some investigation of why it was like this but the product was installed
by a colleague who'd spent about 4 months getting it to this point.

I replaced it with Nagios in about 2 days and that barely registers on
any measuring tools :)
