Zabbix dla homelabów "Arvalis" po pół roku - czy było warto?

Od ostatniego wpisu na temat projektu “Arvalis” trochę minęło, w zasadzie około pół roku i od tamtej pory sporo się zmieniło. Jako że jest to projekt czysto związany z selfhostingiem i cięciem kosztów tak bardzo jak to możliwe, to uznałem, że powinienem Wam co nieco opowiedzieć. Czym jest projekt “Arvalis”? Pod nazwą “Arvalis” kryje się w rzeczywistości hosting własnej instancji oprogramowania Zabbix w celu monitorowania domowych homelabów. Mówię o liczbie mnogiej, ponieważ w projekt zaangażowanych jest kilka osób, a instancja Zabbix jest współdzielona. Projekt też wykorzystuje wiele praktyk i czynności kojarzonych raczej z infrastrukturami produkcyjnymi, a nie domowymi, jednakże zostały one wybrane, aby ułatwić deployment i utrzymanie. O projekcie więcej dowiecie się z tego wpisu.

Accessing my Debian system’s .local address fails periodically and I’ve had to restart it to get it working again.

A restart is such a pain, so I dug into what was responsible: Multicast Dynamic Name Server (or mDNS).

But how does one restart a random network service? On Debian, I found Avahi Daemon.

‘sudo systemctl restart avahi-daemon’

That’s all it took!

Current mission, recycle, repurpose or recoil! That iMac has a glitchy screen, Logic/MBoard issue? There's maybe a slim chance I could install and run minimal Debian on it for 'something'. Yes, that's a MKI AppleTV you can see. Three laptops and misc hard drives (even an IDE).

Building a Mostly IPv6 Only Home Network – Varun Sinai Priolkar

OK nerds: if all I need is a local NAS/Jellyfin server, is 2.5Gig ethernet gonna be enough for my local network

Are you *really* seeing everything your UniFi network is doing? 🤔 Most setups are missing a crucial piece – real insight beyond the dashboard. Learn what you might be overlooking. New video! 💻 #UniFi #NetworkMonitoring #HomeNetwork

When migrating a site's config and devices from UniFi Network to UniFi OS Server I accidentally configured a invalid inform address that resolved to a wrong IP address.

All devices which got the wrong inform address recovered somehow and found the new controller - except for the the UXG router.

So now I have to travel there today and reset and readopt the router. If you don't have SSH enabled on the unifi router there seems to be no sane way to recover this. 👀
