Anyone using nagios to monitor an esxi host?

All my raspis were using the nrpe plugin to monitor but not sure how to install nrpe from source on an esxi host.

Or the nagios plugins for that matter. There are instructions for both but esxi is not one of the OS. Is there an OS that esxi resembles, like being able to follow Debian instructions for raspberry?

“The NHL has been attempting to follow the mandates of health experts and local authorities, while preparing for any possible developments without taking premature or unnecessary measures. However, following last night’s news that an NBA player has tested positive for coronavirus – and given that our leagues share so many facilities and locker rooms and it now seems likely that some member of the NHL community would test positive at some point – it is no longer appropriate to try and continue to play games at this time.

Bringing all your smart devices together and doing automation across them?

mental moth Mar 13, 2020, 3:25 PM

#

I don't have many smart appliances, but what I want to do with it is mainly interactive dashboard. Like for example not too long ago I spent good amount of time trying to setup the dashboard to show how much milk we have left. Like a simple button that also shows the number of milk cartons we have and tapping the button would decrease the number. Found it to be almost impossible.

scenic radish Mar 13, 2020, 3:25 PM

Yeah, basically devices that can't talk to each other by themselves can essentially talk to each other if there's an integration for them

mental moth Mar 13, 2020, 3:27 PM

Well another thing I tried to do and also could not figure out was: A simple button that would execute a shell script.

#

Or a button that toggles between "baby is sleeping" and "baby woke up" and maybe a gauge next to it showing portion of day baby slept and portion of day baby was awake. Like these kind of things

#

Is home assistant not the right tool for such things?

last dirge Mar 13, 2020, 3:29 PM

not by itself

#

could integrate it with something like grafana to get better analytics

mental moth Mar 13, 2020, 3:30 PM

#

I know there is nodered dashboard I could use for such things, but I just have a feeling those are basic things HA should be able to do on its own as well

#

UX wise I assume that I could open HA > Create a button > assign an action to it and this action could be a shell script or a curl, rest or ping or something similar. But when I go to HA web ui, it only lets me search for devices on my network

Depends on how good your are at converting logic to usable scenarios on HA

What would be the way to get for example a simple button to execute a shell script?

tidal bronze Mar 13, 2020, 3:39 PM

Setup input boolean, automation triggers the script. Same for your baby sleep/wake.

mental moth Mar 13, 2020, 3:41 PM
