Prometheus Monitoring subreddit. ... depending on your use case, zabbix or nagios might be better ... I went with check_mk and love it.

We use check_mk to generate service checks for NagiosIV and it works quite well. After that, the checks are visible in Nagios web interface, or Thruk since we use Thruk. Check results are sent over TCP, but port 6556 is managed by xinetd, yes. 1.

Doesn't zabbix use java? That's why I eliminated it from my list. I use check_mk now, migrated from Nagios. Plus, Nagios (and thus check_mk) are easily maintained using Puppet. No idea about zabbix tho. Finally, the Nagios community is huge, more chance of finding an issue already explained, an uncommon check already written, tons of docs, etc.

Hey everyone I'm considering moving to a different NMS platform, specifically Zabbix or Check_MK. We've used Auvik (no cross-client ...

Am I better of going with Zabbix? I need to monitor Windows, Linux, ESX, Network ( linux vms ) and web services like Jira, Confluence, general ...

+1 for Check-MK. Version 2.0 is just around the corner which has a tonne of new features and fixes. The beta is currently available for the free edition (up to 10 hosts / 2 sites). To my excitement they've added their own data source which can be used in Grafana. The beta for the raw edition should be released in January iirc.

Played with Check_MK for a while, hated it, and ended up with Zabbix. The jury is still out on zabbix but so far I like it.

As always, I'll shill for Check_MK Raw Edition or OMD here; both follow the same model but have different ideas about what extra packages to include.. By installing one .rpm/.deb, you get Nagios core (optionally Icinga, Naemon, or Shinken) bundled with WATO (a rules-based Nagios config file generator) so you don't have to write Nagios config anymore, PNP4Nagios for graphs (OMD also bundles ...

Nagios, Zabbix, Prometheus or Splunk ? Any experience in using these in your environment? Please share your feedback. I ...

Custom checks are easy to write, I just love the notification windows (business hours alerting FTW!) and there's an option to execute auto-mitigation commands rather than alert. But man, Check_MK is more complex than a NoSQL Database! Depending upon your environment, the number of config files for Check_MK can run into the thousands.

Zabbix I found really horrible unless you have a uniform environment. Even then the dashboards for it are just terrible compared to Cacti, LibreNMS, or Nagios. The graphing in it also leaves a lot to be desired as last I checked it is incapable of doing totals and a few other common things that are useful for network graphs.

We use Check MK for almost 2 years now and it is a great tool. The speed, the info, the speed is amazing. We setup a VPN with every customer and work with the managed services version. (Distributed Monitoring) This is one of the most powerful tools we have ever worked with.

I've used Check_MK in a few roles now, and Nagios before that. ... Try zabbix + grafana, and if you need syslogging throw graylog into the ...

the check_mk client for server monitoring is easy to get up and running and ... Zabbix on production, but im doing some tests on observium to see if it ...

NEMS Linux, Libre NMS or Zabbix. ... Check_mk itself has been around long enough to have its own ... Nagios or Zabbix would be perfect.

Nagios XI costs money. The OG nagios is free and still works very well, albeit a bit of a mess of configuration files. It's also compatible with thousands of plugins and its very easy to write your own. It is a bit of a dinosaur, but it just works. 44. level 2. netadmn.

Icinga (fork of Nagios). Zabbix. LibreNMS (fork of Observium). Prtg (free) ... Zabbix or Cacti are easier to configure, but lose power.

It is quickly becoming the defacto monitoring solution, especially in a containerized environment. Long term metric solution is still an issue but there are some projects popping up to solve this (Thanos for example). 3. level 1. bwdezend. · 3y. I hate almost everything about how check_mk does what it does.
