Talk:List of systems management systems

message: By the way, you've just added the descriptions of those system administration tools to the list of systems management systems. Once again, these articles are about enterprise-wide management systems, not system administration tools. You should revert your edits or allow me to do it. Maybe you were confused by wrong categorization of the articles, weren't you? — Anrie Nord (talk • contribs) 2007-04-17 23:55Z
: Please repost this comment in the talk section of the appropriate page. (Done by me - Djbclark) You seem to be confusing your personal definition of "systems management" with the canonical truth. There is not a single taxonomy that everyone agrees on; there are multiple points of view. And again with the nebulous "enterprise"; how is Nagios (which you put on the list and/or left in) more "enterprise" than say Cfengine? The former is pretty much just a monitoring system; the later can do monitoring type stuff, plus "enterprise management" type stuff (whatever that means). If you can come up with clear definitions of different categories of systems management applications that do not reference standards that are not agreed on, I would be fine with using that categorization within the articles (along with a note of the category definitions). — Djbclark 00:22, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

message: The list appears to be missing one vendor/product I am aware of: NetIQ AppManager. If in agreement, please add or respond and I'll look at submitting the edits. 208.223.102.8 (talk) 14:43, 16 June 2008 (UTC)

thread_title: Supported Operating Systems?

message: There's an issue with the table on this page when sorting. Sorting by "Open Source" descending seems to put the table back into order, but sorting by any other column breaks the table. Browser: Google Chrome 11; OS: Windows 7; -- Swivelgames (talk) 03:11, 2 May 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Sorting Breaks Table

thread_title:  No sources for verification 

message: Several very relevant items have been removed from the list.
No specific reason has been given.  I accept there may be reasons.  And there may be different reasons on different entries.  And some entries may be retainable if fixed.
I have reverted the edit (I would have preferred to re-instate particular entries on a one by one basis) and welcome discussions on why particular entries should be removed.

replies: text: As it says at the top of the article, this is a list of notable systems management systems. 'Notable' on Wikipedia means that they should have a preexisting Wikipedia article. See Wikipedia:Stand-alone_lists#Common_selection_criteria and Wikipedia:Write the article first for more information. - MrOllie (talk) 10:54, 12 February 2017 (UTC)
