  • SNMP does what you want. You just need a good monitoring solution that’s not as involved as Prometheus+grafana (I feel you, I’ve been there)

    I really enjoy PRTG, but it’s way too expensive for a home lab, still throwing it out there if you feel like you have money to burn.

    I hear good word about libreNMS, it’s next on my list when my PRTG licence runs out.

    Be warned that monitoring is ultimately a fickle thing; what you don’t write in yaml config for grafana, you get to dig through obscure SNMP libs to find out (though I find that’s easier for me, ymmv) for other tools.

    I recommend against: nagios (I like it but if you hate Prometheus it’s definitely not for you), checkmk (throw checkmk into the sun please it just fucking sucks), cacti (NO!), solar winds (why?)

    if you feel like you want to become a datacenter admin: zabbix scales very very well, both in performance and ease of admin against hundreds of servers, but it’s overkill for a home lab, and it can get you lost in configs for hours.







  • I’m not fully familiar with the overheads associated with all things going on on a chipset, but it’s not unreasonable to think that this workload, plus whatever the chipset has to do (hardware management tasks mostly), as well as the CPU’s other tasks on similar interfaces that might saturate the IO die/controller, would influence this.

    B350 isn’t a very fast chipset to begin with, and I’m willing to bet the CPU in such a motherboard isn’t exactly current-gen either. Are you sure you’re even running at PCIe 3.0 speeds too? There are 2.0 only CPUs available for AM4.




  • The soaking rain thing has happened to me with a not particularly water resistant phone and it was fine. The water ratings are more intended for direct splashes and full immersion.

    My opinion is that this is a comfort we can do without, especially given the ecology and consumer rights implications (not that a phone with a user replaceable battery is necessarily porous to water, plenty of phones meet both criteria)

    While Microsoft and Google merely pretend to like open source but transparently hate it, it is (was) not quite as obvious that red hat wanted to capture the enterprise Linux market wholesale. What red hat has done is terrible for the ecosystem, much more so than Microsoft just throwing out worthless tokens of appreciation.
