More details and support in the cmk forum. I m using cmk for more than 10 years now. Free versions works fine. If you ve often changes on your clients try ansible for a central management or use the commercial version with the agent bakery. Ralf

check_mk is licensed on the terms of GPLv2 so you are "free" to use it as you wish, I'm monitoring around 200 hosts currently with the RAW edition.

I would recommend the Check_MK RAW edition for your home, and enterprise, monitoring needs. They only offer SLES server packages but it should install fine on any modern OpenSUSE system with minimal effort. For your client systems you can download/install the included client RPM package, accessed from the WebUI. You could install the client package from the server:monitoring repository, however those packages are old (v1.2.8) and work fine but you'll be missing newer checks. I would not recommend trying to setup a check_mk server using the server:monitoring repo any more as it is a tedious manual process and the verison is ancient. FWIW I "tried" updating server:monitoring to version 2.x but could never successfully get it working so I gave up. Having said that, I have considered packaging the 2.x client, but I haven't had the time to invest in that effort.

Hi, all --

Same here :-)

On a somewhat related off-topic note, what are "little" folks using to monitor systems to see that everything is healthy? I miss BB4 :-( For a dozen machines at home and a few on other networks I can't go with a true enterprise-level monitoring tool, but rolling my own ssh-and-peek and/or collect-and-phone-home scripts, not to mention parsing everything for problems to somehow report, is a huge pain.
Got any recommendations for Mr One-Man Shop?
TIA
