+1 for CMK. It’s built on nagios. Been using it for decades. That shit is rock solid and has never let me down.
Prometheus is metrics and grafana reports it. IMHO, better reporting and graphing, better eye candy. But also harder to setup and get right.
CMK agent works on 95% of what you want with just the agent.
I use it on reclaimed hardware … Works great for me. Has all the features you’d want for a home lab, and I run a few production hosts there as well
I have a rack in my garage.
My advice, keep it simple, keep it virtual.
I dumpster dove for hardware and run proxmox on hosts. Not even clustered, just simple stand alone proxmox hosts. Connect to my Synology storage device and done.
I run next cloud for webDav contacts and calendar (fuck Google), it does photo and do. Storage. The next client is free from F-Droid for Android and works on debian desktops like a charm.
I run Minecraft server
I run home automation server
I run a media server.
Proxmox backs everything up on schedule
All I need to do is get off-site backup setup for Synology important data and I’m all set.
It’s really not as hard as you think if you keep it simple
We had that, but people knew what the delivery driver looked like or maybe reception had a secret list of buddies to notify …whatever. When breakfast was delivered, within 10 seconds, all the vultures in the office pounced in it, leaving nothing.
Anytime pizza was given on Fridays, same vultures would rush to be 1st in line then walk out with a plate stacked with a whole pizza… Rest of us usually got nothing.
Surprisingly accurate
Does resolve.d let me use DHCP address with a manually set DNS server yet?
Would be more appropriate if it was the datetime library creator.
I would take any laser printer with a scanner/copier that doesn’t have a subscription model that has Linux drivers for all features .
Brother is the only one I’ve found to check all the boxes
I used a GPS module to feed time data to a custom ntp service with no jitter. About as close as I could get to atomic clock precision for under $150.
Starting off a noob programmer in Bash… Pure evil
This is accurate
PopOS I have to be at the bar and I will have a little early and then I’ll get you some food for the day off the road to get the title and I can come by.
