    Great work, your script was alerting me for short outages with my server.

    Now I changed provider and setup new server, working great this is truly amazing work.

    Thank you and I hope that betas will remain free, at least 3 servers.

    Keep up the good work!

  • very nice. I love it!

    Thanked by 1Joe_NQ
  • This is amazing! Thanks so much for allowing us to test it out :).

  • @Joe_NQ Apologies for going off topic, but I was wondering, is your blog custom or a template?

    P.S. Great work with the customizable notification updates.

  • Edit: Joe_NQ - I don't know if it's been suggested (or if it's there already and I just missed it), but perhaps add a way to reset statistics for a server? I shut down one of my servers for testing purposes, but I don't want that to be reflected on the true availability, as the server is actually quite stable.

    Another suggestion (and again, maybe it's been suggested or is already there, I didn't all 7 pages), would be to add SMS alerts if a server is unresponsive.

    Simply 'reinstall' the server from our interface. It will generate a new access token and reset your network availability score. SMS alerts are planned and will be implemented very soon. However limited to 10 per month during the free public beta.

    Thank you very much. The blog is completely custom made, front- and backend. It is basically a markdown editor and a single SQL table.

    Very nice. The network traffic only indicates the primary IP right? Is it possible to have it sum over all the external interfaces? Probably would need to be configured manually. Well, I can edit the bash script to do this myself.

    edit: I have a Centos 6 machine with CPanel and csf/lfd. Getting a bunch of errors:

    /etc/nodequery/nq-agent.sh: line 66: /usr/bin/who: Permission denied
    timeout: failed to run command `wget': Permission denied

    Looks like who and wget are chmod 700 by default on this system, so I'll have to add a group and chmod them 750.

    edit2: I can't get my server to start from 100% availability. I do the re-install, and put in the new api key. After the first update, it immediately starts at 50% availability, and I've tried multiple times. Looks like the only way is to delete and re-add. There should be an easy way to reset uptime%.

    And one more suggestion: have separate RX/TX total in Network Usage

    Unfortunately no, the agent script and our backend is only built to monitor the default public interface for now. I will think about possibilities to change that in the future.

    edit: I have a Centos 6 machine with CPanel and csf/lfd. Getting a bunch of errors:

    Distributions with a high level of security enforcing (like CloudLinux) will certainly have some problems with the agent script. We might implement a permissions check in the installations script at some point, for now you will have to adjust those manually.

    Thank you for spotting that bug, must have snuck in with one of the latest application updates. I deployed a fix and hope it is working now.

    And one more suggestion: have separate RX/TX total in Network Usage

    The separate total is displayed in the overview right underneath the processor information. Might not be the best spot though, however the interface will be revised at some point anyway.

  • Do you have any rough ideas on what you're going to charge for this post-beta?

  • Stupid edit limit..

    Anyhow, @Joe_NQ: It might be just my OCD talking, but the alert email bugs me. The firs sentence isn't capitalized! If you want, you can PM me the email templates and I'll make then purty :3

  • @D4X69 said:

    No, not really. We are hoping to offer the smallest plan for $10 or less with a couple of servers included. As soon as we've deployed our new HA app infrastructure it will be easier to say. Right now I am looking into possible providers that offer multiple zones within close distance to each other, so far CloudVPS.com is my favorite.

    The emails bug me as well but we are currently working on new HTML versions which will include less phrases and more actual information. I'll send you the templates later so you can have a look.

  • @Joe_NQ Can we keep the beta account?

    Early adopters will of course receive a discount on paid plans and additional features (i.e. more servers) for the free accounts.

    I assume that's monthly then? Perhaps discounts if paid yearly? :)

    I think a yearly invoice would be the only way I could keep my account, due to being so poor. :(

    Had another idea! Settable bandwidth limit alerts :3

    Maybe one free server monitoring for every beta tester.

    Supporting IPv6-only VPS' would be a plus.

  • I haven't tried it out myself, but it looks amazing.

    Just me or are your servers getting slow? Sometimes it takes a while until the next server is loaded and shows the graphs etc.

    I've noticed this too. It can take up to 30 seconds to load a page sometimes.

  • This looks pretty sweet, great work :)

    Same here

  • How much it will cost when it will be ready? Any information about price list?

  • Seems their site is being DDOSed right now, I got connection timeout and kept getting messages like once every few minutes telling me a process has been killed from every single VPS I am monitoring (presumably because it couldn't connect to the API server).

  • Seems like it's still down :(

  • okay, seems it is moving to new house

  • He said a while back that they would be setting up an HA system so them moving and some down time was expected

  • It's working again for me, just for everyone's info

    Thanked by 1ndlong75
  • worked for me a few hours ago, however you need to manually log in and kill all the hanging nodequery tasks as those are chewing away your disk I/O for some reason (I did get a warning from Linode on my disk I/O for one of my VPS with them even though I have never got one before).
