Disadvantages

• No support for LDAP• No support for huge movies

(set up now for max 110 MB)

Galicaster• Easy 2 use (touch-)interface for making

recordings. • Can record multiple screens at the same time.

Matterhorn 1.4

• All-in-one package for recording, converting & streaming movies.

What is Nagios?• Nagios offers complete monitoring and

alerting for servers, switches, applications, and services.

What did i learn?

• Working with (free) opensource-alternatives– Proxmox VE (VMWare esxi-alike)– Matterhorn– Nagios– Cumulusclips (youtube-alike website)

• Linux servers– Iptables (firewall)– Setup apache2 with php5 & mysql (webserver)– A lot of Linux commands

• Configuring routers (NAT, static IP’s)• Things never go as you plan them

Time i’ve been working

• Time estimated: 75 h. < time < 90 h.• Time spent > 120 h.

Work 2 do

• Connect Matterhorn 1.4 to cumulusclips (automatic insertion of movies).

• Setting up matterhorn for uploading movies to youtube.• Setting up live-streaming for people of KHLeuven with LDAP

(login required).• Set up Nagios (monitoring).• Set up Recording devices for classrooms. (HW-problem)

• After everything works fine – Setting up computers in classrooms.– Expend the network / storage capacity for the server
