Sometimes, I really get excited to try new things like Zabbix now, Grafana soon, even by ignoring the real work
even if not I'm good at linux/ open source things, I feel, being in touch with Open Source things, I have enthusiasm to try new things....?

Do I just need to update the link below, to get latest Zabbix version? all remains same?

Got a new fedora today. I feel like @JaredBusch
Pics or it didn't happen.
Bonus points if you’re sitting in the drivers seat of your car when you take the selfie

Go with the Newest version, But @JaredBusch would be able to answer much better as it is his guide. -

We use it already extensively and have a project underway to get even more. We have Zabbix five on hundreds of nodes today, thousands soon. It's been very good. Replacing all other RMM with it currently.

Morning coffee now. And some breakfast.

Looking for a power supply for a scale, It's a lot harder than it sounds.

So you installed Zabbix on hundreads of nodes since May 12? Did you just got rid of the Salt agents you had before?

We have been removing Salt, for now, but that's unrelated. Salt is a remote control system. Zabbix is a remote monitoring system. It's replacing the RMM that a lot of our customers are on (mix of Itarian and Ninja.)

okay, RMM ususally also have Remote access but I understand.

My Surface is one of the Samsung 123L01 models and it's just begun to exhibit the flickergate symptoms. Because it was in my saddlebag when I crashed, the screen is cracked and it's really too old to care much about any more, so I've got to replace the whole thing. Upgrade time! In like, 4 months. Bleh.

We removed that from our RMM a while ago. We never used the two together, but yes, that's common.

I'm saddled with a surface right now. The thing would be a decent mobile solution, but they chose the slowest possible HDD when they made these models (I think it's a 2). Totally ruins an otherwise okish experience. They're still priced like a high-end thing, so 100% do not recommend.

I'm on the opposite end of your experience. I had a 1 and a 2. I had been using an old Dell that weighed somewhere in the metric fucktons and moving to the 1 was a dream. I did all my Spiceworks training off it and the two. I migrated to the 4 a few years ago, and bought my wife the 3 a little before that. All were/are great machines. Even now, my surface with the screen flicker still works (if I keep it cool). I think your purchasing department may have made some poor decisions if you got the base model, which is absolutely an underperformer and no one should get that. You can get some really good cpu and drive combos in the current line, and they perform well in the ᵗᶦⁿᶦᵉˢᵗ form factor. I have no problems using my surface on a plane where others may struggle. If you're expecting a gaming machine, then you need to go big with the surface laptop, which has a discrete video card. Otherwise, I would say you and others that use the systems (VDI, Surface, iPads, Pi) always find something to complain about because it doesn't meet whatever needs you think you have. In reality, you're using a system and getting the job done, even if you feel that the extra i/o is impacting your 30 ms of work day.

The I/O is so bad that it takes at least 15 minutes of my time every day on average. I agree that someone got a model they shouldn't have, but Microsoft is still charging a huge premium for poor hardare. If you're going to charge Apple prices, I expect the same sort of baseline performance, and this isn't it. Glad you like yours, and the form factor is good, but form factors that are just as good for less money exist.
I'm not gaming on this thing, just web browsers for when I'm working remotely. It still takes minutes to wake from sleep mode.

I've installed version 5 to look at getting more out of it, like finally getting the agent on all Windows server and Linux server VM's. Then using SNMP on more network devices like switches, routers, AP
Also installed Grafana to have a look at soon.

Apple prices? The baseline Surface Pro with Keyboard is like $999, I think you can get an apple phone for that - can you get one of their macbooks?
but yeah, that $999 model is definitely the one to avoid, of course they put low end shit in there - they don't want you to buy it, they want you in the $1300 unit.
