[chef] Re: Best practice for measuring and monitoring chef-client runs?

[Morgan Blackthorne < >]

We use Airbrake Handler to send the errors to hoptoad (which aggregates and emails). Haven't had time to dig into the run time analysis, not sure it matters to us at this point... complicated for us runs usually finish in about 1-2m, so that's plenty fine by me.

I would like to monitor for when chef-client runs fail on a node.

It would be nice to measure chef-client run times.

Is it safe to assume people are using handlers for both of these? What are some popular ways to accomplish these goals? Thanks!
