Hi

If you are trying to get Xymon running on a Raspberry Pi, as an academic
exercise, then go for it, and read no further.
If your purpose is to get it running on a small system that can sit in a DC
completely unnoticed, with minimal power requirements, then you may want to
look at one of these.

They run a stripped down Ubuntu, wireless or wired NIC, and can take
external storage if your requirements exceed SD capacity.

Regards
Vernon

Compilation would be the bigger issue. Since RPi uses ARM (I have one as
well).  You can attach and use external storage via USB...or limit yourself
to the 32 GB max SD card you can install on.

Probably. I have one, but haven't done much with it yet.

You'd need to compile Xymon (and it's dependencies) on the machine.

Disk space for rrd and history would be an issue.

Hi, is it possible to use a Raspberry Pi (512MB model running Debian
Squeeze) as a Xymon server (only for a limited number of clients)?
