Monitor it’s current resources, but disk I/O usually is a thing to look at. Don’t use spinning disks

Well, switched from check_mk to librenms this morning. and indeed, it’s a much better fit. Much more network oriented compared to many other tools.

Are you kidding me? True, there is time involved. My biggest ‘sin’ right now is “home gallery” for it works on MY directory structure which I won’t give up.

The geoguessing game that hides in it is superb ! I’m still amazed with the images I’ve been able to locate. Sometimes 40 years back.

At my work all but me love microsoft. But … They started to complain about teams too. I only use the chat because it’s impossible to avoid.

Power consumption is the 2nd thing i look for in my IT devices (first is “do I need internet/cloud services to run it” … Yes is an absolut disqualifier)

Nice post. Recognisable too. I have an old server from work at home, but came to the same conclusion: with that power consumption it’s no fun running it 24/7 at home.

Thnx! This looks like the way to go.
