What makes it so bad? (honest question) . Some alternatives:

- res_mon, resm, rmon (Resource Monitor)
- rmnode, rnode, rmon_node (Resource Monitoring node, similar to
Resource Monitor ID, but to reflect that it's a node in a
tree/hierarchy)
 - rdt_mon, rdtm (something with RDT + Monitoring)
 - ment, rdt_ment (Monitoring Entity)

Other suggestions?

Thanks,
David
