Syncing up Zenoss with the Citrix Netscaler using Python
Monitoring - Zenoss

The script below I created to sync up Zenoss with the Citrix Netscalers. What this will do essentially is make sure that all of our devices in Zenoss are in the correct Systems in Zenoss. So for instance lets say we have a cluster called Foo-Cluster and we have 100 devices that are in that cluster as per the netscaler. This script will move those 100 devices into that System aka {Cluster} in Zenoss.

The reason this is so important is that when you update the Citrix Netscaler you will also have to update Zenoss, but if you run this script in cron then you will not have to update Zenoss at all. This script was written in Python This script was tested with Zenoss 2.0.2, Also some modifications may have to be made to fit your environment.

Please post any questions to this script here http://linuxdynasty.org/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=3
You can download the script here  ... zenoss_netscaler_snmp.py

I wish I had a Netscaler to test this code out on the newest Zenoss.. Company I
work for now is going to let me install Zenoss in the lab, but there is not that
many interesting things I can plug Zenoss into here.....
