i'm a devops noob. what tools should i use to log / monitor all my servers?

i don't want to learn some complex stuff like cheff/puppet btw.... anything SIMPLE?

Though I haven't tried it, people tell me that ansible is pretty simple - http://www.ansible.com/home

For logging, try logstash? http://logstash.net/

Monitoring... well that's a large and complicated topic!

+1 on Ansible, great tool and super simple to configure and use.
