Server Monitoring software recommendations

VitabytesDev@feddit.nl to Selfhosted@lemmy.world – 83 points –

I want something that has a WebUI, can show in a graph like the CPU and RAM graph for this day and maybe some days before. Also I would like to view what was running at any given time (I mean from 2-3 days before to now).

Is there any (FOSS) software that does that?

Thanks.

I use Check_MK

Same here. I still don't understand why everyone is about Grafana. I've tested it and checkMK is more... Everything.

@darkham @Luci What do you think about zabbix?

Switched from CMK to Zabbix at my previous job. Zabbix is far more comfortable and has all the same possibilities that CMK has. But you can setup everything in the web GUI and don’t need to reload anything.

@mbirth In Zabbix you can configure everything via web ?

Yes! And if it gets too complex for simple checkboxes and formulas, there are a few places where you can enter JavaScript into a textbox. But it’s all inside the web GUI. No need to fiddle with files on the server.

+1 for cmk. Been using it at work for an entire data center + thousands of endpoints and I also use it for my 3 server homelab. It scales beautifully at any size.

+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.
