Nagios/CheckMK/Opsview/etc are OK. Zabbix really opened my eyes with how much better their detection and trigger system is.

I use zabbix as well, professionzlly and personally - in addition to Nagios. Nagios is on a cluster we run and zabbix is for everything else. My main take is that nagios is "flashier" than zabbix - but in the end of the day, zabbix is more usable.

The licensing was confusing at first. You are correct. The Raw version didn’t say anything about unlimited but it is. CheckMK Raw is open source and self hosted. CheckMK itself is different than Raw. It is free for 25 hosts after 30 day trial.

Nice video, I remember you mentioning HashiCorp Vault in one of your videos. Do you use it in your homelab? If so, would you ever make a video about it? There actually aren't that many videos about how to configure it on docker

Vault integrates directly with Zabbix, which is a better monitoring solution IMHO and they do not need to have an Enterprise edition

Checkmk is based on nagios - which I've been using for some 15+ years and am happy with. nice though they have a container. tried nagios xi but found that i worked better editing config files manually after being so used to core

We moved to XI from core some 8-10 years ago and have been happy with it, we like that it bundles the graphing backend and the web frontend into one. plus the plugins are really helpful in getting new monitors setup quickly.

Nice, thanks. I tried the free/enterprise appliance and it was able to talk to my single esxi host (no central vCenter). Looks like there's no raw version for the appliance so I'll probably redo things using the docker version so I can get onto the raw. Adding hosts initially wasn't intuitive, but your video was very helpful in figuring things out.

Hi, I tried Free/trail version and also talked their support team, but they didnt tell me that its just for single host. I added my 1st server it worked, but now when i'm adding other servers its keep giving me this error "CRIT [special_vsphere]: Agent exited with code 1: Cannot login to vSphere Server (reason: [500] Internal Server Error). Please check the credentials."

Isn't it just better to install Nagios? I see Checkmk use Nagios as the underlying layer.

Check_mk is just an overlay for nagios. You can also simply run standard nagios as well. Personally i think icinga2 is much nicer as it's got all the same capabilities under the hood but seems to be much less resource intensive than check_mk, nagios, and nagios xi.

Enjoyed the video but seems to be missing the DB store component. Monitoring systems need to store the data somewhere which includes storage maintenance. A very key component to any monitoring server/service. Perhaps this concern is outside the scope of the video, but I felt that it should have been covered at least briefly

yeah.... no... problem with all these "free" stuff as per monitoring is that at some point they run so slow that you simply cannot use them... free nagios to paid nagios zabbix zenoss etc etc... networkchuck channel recently released some umma kama something, sorry do not remember the name which supposed to monitor the network... From what I see, and I have built gazillion of these, prometheus grafana slack and opsgenie is go to option dockerised prom and grafana of course... + some ansible automation to deploy all that... Great video though :) hmm: ### STARTING XINETD * Starting internet superserver xinetd [ OK ] ### STARTING SITE Temporary filesystem already mounted Starting agent-receiver...OK Starting mkeventd...OK Starting rrdcached...OK Starting npcd...OK Starting nagios...OK

That point is pretty far out with Checkmk Raw. At some point it’ll fold, but we’re talking thousands of devices monitored. Just read a post on the Checkmk forum the other day of a guy monitoring 2000 hosts on one Checkmk Raw site. Let me see if I can dig up the link

In my opinion CMK is more flexible than Zabbix and has a lot more plugins/checks out of the box. Also the integrations with InfluxDB/Grafana and ntopng are a great plus. When using the cee (Enterprise edition) or cme (Managed Services edition) it comes with it's own core CMC (Checkmk Micro Core) which is a lot faster then the nagios backend.

Nice and interesting video about Checkmk. I worked with this solution for quite a while and I agree that it's easy to to setup and get some quick results. But if you're dealing with bigger environments, then the command line has to be your friend. A very interesting free solution, which I like better, is Zabbix. Please have a look and make a comparison, I'd be interested, if you agree.
