@LateNightLinux no, Windows with WSL have everything I need from Linux world and play nicely with the rest of the family. Had Linux desktop for couple years without and it mostly fine, but overhead to make it work with family devices with Windows and Apple ecosystems does not worth it. Linux is happily running on all servers and appliances and cloud machines. As a side note - looks like it is a nice Linux only bubble what doesn’t overlaps with the real windows users.
@ironicbadger works good, auto discovery really makes life easier and removes some Nagios pain. Experience with Nagios really make life easier but it is doable from scratch. I went RAW edition, which is actual nagios engine under the hood. Opposed to the free tier which is using proprietary engine under the same GUI a little bit faster and have some nice features. Conditions similar to the old Tailscale free plan - enough for a small deployment, like 5-10 server.

@ironicbadger
0 - various local scripts and crons jobs to a single location on primary server
1 - local pull ZFS replication to dedicated backup server
2 - remote ZFS replication - testing at the moment
3 - restic to Backblaze B2 for very important stuff

All of the above is monitored by CheckMK. Started with Nagios which is really enough, but CheckMK just a bit nicer.

Monitoring is a key, I'll know backup is not working OR zfs have checksum errors within hours max.

@synack it’s a shame they went this way. Was really useful for AU. Thanks for your work!
