Find ich echt nice dass so viele kleine Projekte so gut werden. Ich benutz selber Icinga2 weil ich das halt einfach mag, aber uptime kuma kann schon recht viel was mir Icinga bietet

Wieder ein sehr cooles Video. TOP! Mein Homelab ist soeben um Uptime-Kuma erweitert worden. 🙂

Would it be possible to list the github repositories to the solutions you have mentioned in this segment? Greatly appreciated. Quality content as usual. Thank you!

[CodeXploit]

Using Uptime Kuma for over 6 months now, monitoring 50+ services of various types, i can absolutely say its a top notch application and stable.
Go for it without doubt, you wont find anything even remotely close to this.

Okay, ive already seen technotims version of uptimekuma. Being honest, hes smart but hes a dev, not a sysadmin. Now your doing one... I guess i need to pay attention 😅

[vulong]

Thanks, i have setup my Uptime Kuma for a while but fail to utilize it. Now Iknow how to actively monitor all my docker container

[MinecraftLPGlotzer]

I really like Gatus as you can configure it with a conf file

[scottswf]

It would be great if they added a feature to crawl your network first, and simply click accept to the monitors it proposes, based on the crawling as a starting point.

[tubejim]

where did you find docks on how to setup docker sockets? Thank you for the video.

[GamePlayByFaks]

seeems, goods should give it a try for monitoring our servers, thank you.

Which VLAN do you recommend placing the monitoring server? Management VLAN or a Server VLAN?

helpful tool with prometheus integration. The only thing missing is the configuration via a config file. There is an issue on github but not much attention to it.
