If I can add a wildcard to the mix, I use LogicMonitor for my NetApp health/performance monitoring and I'm very happy with it. Lots of pretty graphs and data correlation and you can pull the raw data via API if you want to do something with it locally. It's an expensive service, but IMO worth it.

Please let us know if anyone's knows more about it, as I am new to Zenoss monitoring Tool.

Sorry for veering off-topic but I?ll second LogicMonitor. We?ve used it happily for years. While it can be pricey on the whole, you pay per monitored host (IP) so you get a heck of a lot of performance data by pointing at a single Cluster mgmt LIF. You also get outstanding value by monitoring a single Xen pool master or vSphere vCenter server where you get plenty of data on the entire hypervisor resource pool and guests.

OCUM will do a lot out of the box while the main advantage of zenoss is
going to be the ability to customize any kind of monitoring you want and
hte single pane. In this case I would use OCUM unless you plan to spend a
lot of time looking up things like what OID does what and creating custom
graphs.
