OMD, or Open Monitoring Distribution, is an open-source tool that lets you monitor your IT systems and services. In this tutorial, you'll learn how to install OMD on Fedora CoreOS Latest. This guide assumes that you have already installed Fedora CoreOS Latest on your machine.
Before you get started with the installation, it's a good idea to update your system. Run the following command to update your Fedora CoreOS to the latest available version:
sudo rpm-ostree update
OMD requires several dependencies to be installed before you can install it. Run the following command to install the necessary packages:
sudo dnf install epel-release -y && sudo dnf install omd omd-libs nagios-plugins-all nagios-plugins-swap nagios-plugins-load nagios-plugins-procs nagios-plugins-disk bash-completion -y
Once you've installed the dependencies, you can create a new OMD site. Run the following command to create a new site called my-site:
sudo omd create my-site
After creating the new site, start the OMD service using the following command:
sudo systemctl start omd@my-site
OMD includes a web-based interface that allows you to monitor your systems and services. To access the interface, open your web browser and navigate to http://<server-IP-address>/my-site/. Replace <server-IP-address> with the IP address of your server.
In this tutorial, you learned how to install OMD on Fedora CoreOS Latest. With OMD up and running, you can easily monitor your system and services using the web interface.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
