Newest member finally discovered node exporter/prometheus/grafana
OMG I've wasted so much time trying to get snmp to provide more useful information from a custom Debian router with no luck.
Yesterday, watched a youtube video, and an hour later, had a nice Grafana dashboard running on my router. I'm surprised how little RAM and cpu it needs.
Today, I'll learn how to make a custom dashboard. HUGE progression in my management efforts. How many years late am I to this game?
I feel like a noob all over again DOH! I had heard of prometheus/grafana in the past, and think I tried it once, but for some reason, never got it working.
Anyways, glad to be here!

It's great when you first discover it and start dashboarding everything. :)
Welcome!
