So are you using netdata cloud?

[karmic furnace]

Yep

[dense cloud]

Ok so, what you can do is just disable the local dashboard

[karmic furnace]

How?

[dense cloud]

Did you already locate the netdata.conf?

[karmic furnace]

Wait, if I disable it no one can access it except Netdata?

[karmic furnace]

And yeah, /etc/netdata/netdata.conf

[dense cloud]

if you disable it the dashboard located at :19999 and the api will be disabled, the only way to access your graphs etc. would be through the cloud

[karmic furnace]

Ah, so how do I disable it?

[dense cloud]

There should be a section called [web], if you put mode on none it is disabled

[karmic furnace]

ah ok

now how do i setup discord monitoring?

[dense cloud]

So you dont have a file called health_alarm_notify.conf?

[karmic furnace]

Nope.

[dense cloud]

If you just run the command and paste the discord part in it, it should be working, i just checked on my server without notifications and i also dont have the file there

[karmic furnace]

Is this located at /etc/netdata/health_alarm_notify.conf?

[dense cloud]

it should be ye, just create it

(@fathom yoke is this correct? (tldr; setting up discord ntoifications but no default file))

[karmic furnace]

How can I test it works?

lol what-

still no alerts...

lol even benchmarking RAM and no alerts

[fathom yoke]

• discord notification configuration: https://learn.netdata.cloud/docs/agent/health/notifications/discord
• test alerts: https://learn.netdata.cloud/docs/agent/health/notifications/alerta#test-alarms

[karmic furnace]

bash: /opt/netdata/netdata-plugins/plugins.d/alarm-notify.sh: No such file or directory

oh nvm they r coming through

just a bit delayed- haha.

[fathom yoke]

Some alerts has configured delay (https://learn.netdata.cloud/docs/agent/health/reference#alarm-line-delay)

[karmic furnace]

I see...

This is insane.

I have never noticed how in-depth netdata is.

Already getting alerts that I was never aware of. This is great.

Thank you to the team who contributed to this.

any plugins to add more detections? 😜

What do you exactly mean by this?
