• Uptime Monitor

  I’m using https://checkmk.com/ to monitor stuff and it seems to work great. Lots of built in features and functions and if they don’t have what you need you can also create custom scripts to check and report on anything you can dream up. Runs great in docker (I’m using portainer but will run fine in plain old docker). Source: 12 months ago

• Actually usefull or uneccessary? SNMP, AD, Monitoring...

  Have a look at CheckMK open source version is really good, you can spin it up in a docker container and is relatively easy to get some initial monitors going. As to whether it's worthwhile, I guess it depends how much you want to know how you servers are doing and when something goes wrong. Source: about 1 year ago

• Pipeline metrics help

  If you already have some form of infrastructure and application monitoring solution, you could monitor data (job status, job duration, etc.) from the key jobs in your existing infrastructure and application monitoring solution. Splunk, Datadog, and several others have existing integrations to Jenkins. I've used the open source https://checkmk.com/ in the past. I'm confident that others have used Zabbix or...

• Very lightweight monitoring of various Ubuntu/Debian Servers?

  I tried few monitoring systems from PRTG, TIG, Observium, even Uptime Kuma. I end up with checkmk. It's not easy to set up, but once you understand how to do it, things are getting simple. It presents very in-depth information, and helped me find issues I've never expected (e.g. Network interface errors in VM because of wrong driver). It's build on Bash + Python, so writing the own modules or adjusting agent code... Source: over 1 year ago

• status pages with manual on an off button?

  It's better to use a system like CheckMK (a German company) to monitor and a dashboard to get to your app. The free edition has all the main features, is not limited, and it's really easy to setup with docker.. You can setup multiple dashboards so different users can monitor custom areas. Source: over 1 year ago

• Need Help - Network Monitor & Security

  Hello, and in conjunction to Checkmk for monitoring you can use SIGNL4 to alert you when an issue has been detected. It can even notify you on your phone when there is no (or a slow) Internet connection. Source: over 1 year ago

• Log Monitoring/Alerting - Alerts for Common Systems

  We use Checkmk. However, for Window we converted all event messages to come in via the event console (like syslog style, like graylog). From there we have filters that toss a large amount of messages and the rest we bulk up for periodic email (yes, it's that much). This way our Windows admins don't get thousands of alerts and can sift through the myriad of messages and we can create filters and so on. Source: over 1 year ago

• Resources for a one-man IT department?

  If you are responsible to keep IT systems and services running you need to know what's going on. And, ideally, you know about issued before your users. So, having some nice monitoring is key. You might want to checkout Checkmk for this. There are several installation options, plenty of material and a super helpful community. And, it fits your budget with a free (yet powerful) version available, too. Source: over 1 year ago
