I’ve got a lot of services, some in docker, some in LXC or a VM in proxmox. Currently I’ve got no monitoring service. Recently a service went down and I didn’t notice for quite a while so now I’ve got a bunch of missing data. What monitoring tools do you all use? Looking for something that works with docker and plain Linux CTs/VMs and can notify me if a website is down, docker container crashed, VM is offline, etc.
and as a bonus feature something that I can run on two machines so if an entire machine dies, the other will notice and I’ll still receive a notification.
notification can be anything, email, sms, push, etc.
Monit works for me. Good basic monitoring solution that can also restart a service/interface.
I also use LibreNMS to do alerting for a variety of conditions (syslog events, sensor conditions, outages and services via nagios). But this is more work to get set up.
