What solution do you use for configuring monitoring? (lemmy.world)

We currently have ansible, solarwinds and librenms in our environment but ran into an issue recently where a config setting was lost. I know ansible can check these things but then I'll have to configure email and stuff I guess to send alerts? What solution are you using?

If you have LibreNMS, why not run the Oxidizer plugin to pull the units config?

Because I didn't know about it... Thank you!

Is this a plugin or a hook into yet another server that runs oxidized?

It's up to you where to run it. We ran it on the same server as our main LibreNMS poller and didn't have any issues getting the config.

Thanks I just got it running. Now to figure out what to do about credentials 😞. Our enable creds are different depending on region.
