• syncoid alerts: how are you all getting notified on sync failure/success/etc?

  I use Monit (https://mmonit.com/monit/) to manage syncoid operation, scheduling and alerts. This also assists with grouping of jobs and provides at-a-glance status on the M/Monit dashboard. Source: over 1 year ago

• monmon -- Monitor your monitoring with a Raspberry Pi (or, annoy yourself with a flashing light whenever you have issues with Healthchecks.io, Monit, or UptimeRobot!)

  I recently switched to Monit to keep tabs on my servers, and although I really like the Idea of M/Monit, a paid product that lets you monitor all of your Monit instances in one Place (as well as giving you extended functionality), I just couldn't justify the cost. So I set out to create my own super lightweight M/Monit alternative, one that would Simply alert me of any issues with my Monit instances, and then I... Source: almost 2 years ago

• Can no longer connect to protectli/opnsense device

  Using MONIT or ZABBIX plugins to set up email (text, etc) alerts for when power is switched to batter, or from battery to mains, or the device has recovered from a total power loss. And monitor and alert for other things like connection loss (WAN/LAN) and more. Source: over 2 years ago

• Monitor disk status with ssacli

  I like monit because it’s simple, and has an easy web interface. I use m/monit to aggregate all my servers into one interface. Source: over 2 years ago

• Finally got a landing page built for my little lab, after much inspiration from this sub!

  I'm only running Monit on my OPNsense box, because it lets you configure some really specific conditions to watch/ trigger notifications for, and that was important for my firewall. It's great, but I wish there was a decent UI like M/Monit, but open source. Source: about 3 years ago

• Deploying 100+ windows 10 devices per week. Need to automate.

  In case you're unable to use intune, a free approach might be https://theforeman.org/ That works well for provisioning baremetal windows (with discovery image or pxe boot) once you've set it up. It supports script access as well as a nice hierarchy for configurations. But it's really not as well documented as it should be. Source: about 1 year ago

• Configuration Management Tools for 20-30 servers

  I use the foreman with puppet and pxe/kickstart scripts to automate VM/baremetal provisioning etc. Source: about 1 year ago

• Server management tool with GUI

  Might want to look into https://theforeman.org/ if it's not too complex for you. Source: over 1 year ago

• Stockpiling Linux ISOs?

  The iso images are typically locked at a certain verison. The update repositories sounds like what you are looking for to cache updates. Look into theforeman.org and specifically the plugin Katello. This is an upstream for Red Hat's Satellite product. Another option would be Canonical's MAAS. Both of these options Sound like what you are headed for unless you really just mean synchronize into a folder and store... Source: over 1 year ago

• Repo satellite 6 beta error 404 repomd.xml

  Alternatively, you can use Foreman+Katello, the upstream base of Satellite, to get started in learning the platform. You can also use the component matrix to use the versions that most closely resemble Satellite. Source: over 1 year ago
