I’ve been using the excellent Uptime Kuma for my monitoring, but a couple of recent incidents - an external USB mount disappeared on a remote machine, an NVME drive filled up on a different node and stopped backups working because of a configuration error - have made me start to think about more robust monitoring.

The are many great tools for this - Nagios , Prometheus etc. but they are pretty substantial time investments for the excellent power. They can save time series data and display them beautifully. However, all I really want is to add some extra ability to Uptime Kuma.

I’ve gotten interested in Plain Text Accounting , and I’m looking at using BeanCount for small business & personal finances. If you haven’t heard of this, it’s a command line program that uses text files with a human comprehensible syntax to define transactions, then acts on them to create the needed reports etc. A side benefit for developers is that it’s then easily version controlled using GIT, and of course there’s VS Code plugins for it.
