Monitoring

[JoshData]

Add monitoring for:

• Free disk space
• Whether the IP has been blacklisted in common DNSRBLs & whether the domain is in URIBL.
• General system checks (like, is it actually functioning to receive mail?)
• Updated packages (apt-get -qq update && apt-get -qq --simulate upgrade or https://wiki.debian.org/UnattendedUpgrades)
• ...

I had a thought about this one, to setup a "dashboard@yourdomain.com" that you could email and it'd reply with an HTML email showing stats, graphs, and what not. That way you wound't necessarily have to include a web server.

Though a web based monitoring dashboard would be nice too :-).

Well, nginx and PHP are already set up for the webmail, so it seems a waste not to use them... :)

When in doubt just add New Relic for free 24 hour data, Linode's Longview is another option .... I'd prefer just adding my own monitoring vs. reinventing the wheel in some fashion.

I think monitoring could be implemented into the admin dashboard using the python module psutil.

I'll play around with it and maybe hack together a little example page.

Between the status checks and the new nightly change emails (4d22fb9), I've finished what I had in mind with this issue. Happy to discuss further if anyone has other thoughts.
