If you want a dashboard, Netdata does that out of the box. If you want a pretty dashboard for Zabbix, then that's when Grafana is going to shine. Build an amazing sexy dashboard for your Zabbix data on Grafana to make management happy about a monitoring solution.

I've had some fun with Grafana, Telegraf, and InfluxDB but it's been a while.

The above were done during one of our SMB S2D cluster proof runs. Grafana was great for helping to pinpoint what was going on while it was happening. We were able to do some pretty good tuning to pull off great IOPS and Throughput numbers from a little Intel Xeon E3 single socket platform with SATA SSDs for cache and SAS HDDs for capacity.

@dashrender However centrally managed doesn't mean site to site VPN. I don't get MSP that have site to site VPNs to their customers. It is not feasible to maintain, it is a high risk and very old school.

of course it doesn't.

using a tool like ScreenConnect - having all customer machines in a single account - means SC's hacked, then ever client is hacked...

Very easy to implement, You can have notifications in your smartphone.

Found this and might be helpful to this traffic issue. In a Windows Computer you could use Glasswire on a wim to find out what traffic is going out of it:

With Appflow you need to make sure you have authentication enabled for the users so it tracks per user. The Data Collection is for sure nice but it is only the top sites and no much information.

@Pete-S said in Service provider - monitoring questions:

Thanks guys for your replies!

I had a feeling that monitoring was "underutilized" compared to what is technically possible. But as always, it's the business needs and the effort (cost) that determines the service level.

totally underutilized compared to what is possible. you are 100% spot on with that.

WTF is up with the use of the word "Sources"

VatesFr does this as well with Xen Orchestra.

It's dumb and makes no sense to an English speaker, as it's clearly wrong.

I've done both. I tend to like MariaDB / MySQL better because that is what I'm more comfy with.

@dbeato said in Zabbix Server Setup on Debian 9.0:

Prior to doing anytighing if you are basing this on a Debian 9 NetInstall you need to install the following packages as root

apt install ufw sudo -y

Then setup the user in the sudo group

sudo adduser username sudo

Technically, you do this if you don't select certain packages during the installation. It has nothing to do with it being a NetInstall ISO or not.

Technically, these packages are selected by default. I believe both sudo and ufw are part of standard system utilities.

Additionally ufw is not the firewall. That is iptables, but ufw is the simple way to activate and use iptables.

Yes, netinstall has that option as below Figure 1 while though it does not install ufw and sudo on those standard utilities Figure 2 & 3 with the fresh install Figure 4

@hobbit666 said in Monitoring low level server hardware health:

Might depend on the Server and what they have built in.

Dell have the iDRAC that you can log onto and look at hardware logs. (Not sure if you can setup E-mail alerts been a while since i've used one)

The new ones you can since version 7 I believe.

Not exactly - it's for all the DIY stuff im doing anyway. Bought it with a friend.

A few friends and I were talking about doing this.

I can highly recommend the Anycubic I3 Mega. I do have access to quite a few printers, incl. Ultimaker 2/3 Extended, BigReps and others. The Anycubic is outstanding given the price and at least compareable to the Ultimaker IMHO. Great results, good build quality, no open wires like other cheap printers.

This is missing a few: Protected access for admin over all files & PC's, Visuals (graphs) , Easy to use interface.

Here is what I have so far for important features outside of the standard. Do you guys see anything that is more important than another?

Anything I'm missing completely?

This list is not complied by priority, however it needs to be ( my Boss asked me to make a list) so any / all input would be greatly appreciated.

Wow, major changes since I last tested it!

Here's what the alerts look like in both alertmanager and prometheus:
