Submitted by “BixData is a system, application, and network monitoring tool which allows you to easily monitor nearly every aspect of your servers. The newly released version 2.6 is the only application that has the ability to control both Xen and VMware virtual machines. You can control both VM Hosts (the computer that’s running the VM software) and VM Guests (the virtual machines running on the hosts).
This looks pretty useful, I never heard of it before. From the looks of it You could even automate failover where if one VM goes down it triggers bringing up a differnt VM on another host….
Will have to try it out.
“Funny” name.
Why not go ahead and call it N^iggerMon?

Probably because they were not aware of that particular usage. It is not an uncommonly used phrase for non offensive terms. Googling for bix nothing on the first three pages related to the slang use you list. I stipped at page 3.
