Hi,
I'm in the final stages of putting a new monitoring system in place
and retiring Nagios.
I've already added ping checks for everyone that had them before,
and am now going through and porting the more complicated checks
that people have.
I won't cut it over or turn alert notifications on until everything
is being checked by both systems, so for a while you are going to
see service checks from:
- 85.119.80.238
- 85.119.80.244
- 2001:ba8:1f1:f040::/64
- 2001:ba8:1f1:f25d::/64
If you have firewalled your services to only allow checks from
85.119.80.244 then now would be a good time to allow the other IPs
too.
At the moment if you don't have any monitoring set up you have to
ask for it in a support ticket. If you'd like that to be set up for
you, please send a mail to support(a)bitfolk.com.
Hopefully shortly after the new system is in place I will be able to
add some sort of checkbox to the web panel to enable it, as I
already have it so the simple ping tests and alerting contacts are
built from the customer database.
It will probably be some time before more complex checks are
self-service like that, but don't be afraid to ask for something in
the mean time. Many things can be monitored without an agent, more
still by NRPE or SNMP.
Cheers,
Andy
