Running Ollama locally or on dedicated hardware is straightforward until you need to know whether a model is actually loaded in RAM, how fast it generates tokens under load, or when memory consumption reaches a threshold that affects other workloads. A simple TCP port check confirms the process is alive, nothing more. This tutorial shows…
Read MoreWelcome to version 4.47 of our NetEye v4 Unified Monitoring Platform. As you log in, you’ll be greeted by the Rittner Horn at sunset, overlooking the valleys of South Tyrol as warm evening light settles across the landscape. The rugged silhouettes of the mountains are softened by gentle shades of pink and gold. Considered one…
Read MoreHello to you all. It’s been a while. Don’t worry though, this won’t be a long and technical post. It’s just to let you know I’m doing (almost) well and to tell you about our latest news. The Metrics Challenge In the last year we’ve had a lot on our plate, but this hasn’t affected…
Read MorePreface In the landscape of self-hosted Digital Asset Management (DAM) solutions, more and more companies are choosing platforms that allow complete control of their corporate data. Among these, Immich is rapidly emerging as the best self-hosted replacement for Google Photos, thanks to its advanced AI capabilities, high performance, and modern architecture. A Comparison of the…
Read MoreTL;DR: In GLPI, access permissions for assets have traditionally been tied mainly to entities. That works well in clean structures, but in reality, responsibility, ownership, and organizational hierarchy do not always follow the same lines. With GLPI 11, group-based permissions are extended from Tickets to all asset types, and together with the new multi-select group…
Read MoreSNMP monitoring is the standard method for obtaining information and metrics from network devices. Typically, we focus on extracting data from a single interface to monitor its status, traffic, or errors. But in many cases, we’re only interested in getting an overview of the interfaces, or, to avoid overloading our somewhat outdated devices, we limit…
Read MoreIn recent days I came across an interesting case: inventorying a fleet of Cisco phones… without SNMP. The devices only exposed a web UI, so no classic polling was possible. The solution was simple: query the phones’ HTTP pages, extract useful information, and send it to GLPI. The Idea The approach is intentionally minimal: No…

Read MoreRecently we had to monitor an EKS cluster and several other resources using NetEye. AWS already provides solid dashboards out of the box, but log analysis isn’t as flexible as in Elasticsearch, and costs can easily grow out of control. Our goals were to: AWS CloudWatch is a monitoring and observability service that collects logs,…
Read MoreIntroduction Managing Elasticsearch effectively – especially as environments grow in size and complexity – can quickly become a challenging task. Performance tuning, identifying the true root cause behind slowdowns, and optimizing resource allocation often demand specialized expertise and a significant investment in time. In enterprise ecosystems, where observability underpins critical services and reliability expectations are…
Read MoreRecently, it’s become noticeable that the use of OpenShift environments is spreading more and more, and has now firmly established itself within many companies. This naturally leads to the need to integrate these environments into monitoring in a sensible and purposeful way. Some of my colleagues have already written blog posts in the last few…
Read MoreWelcome to version 4.46 of our NetEye v4 Unified Monitoring Platform. As you log in, you’ll be greeted by the iconic bell tower of Curon rising from the frozen surface of Lake Resia (Reschensee). The tower stands alone amid the wide expanse of winter ice, where fine cracks and muted textures hint at the water…
Read MoreEvery IT department has it: the mythical stockroom with all those small parts, cables, plugs, adapters… and mice everywhere (each one with a long cable 😉). Once perfectly organized, it’s now the place where “things we might need someday” go to disappear – and no one remembers the rules for handing something out to the…
Read MoreToday we continue our journey into monitoring automation in NetEye. In my previous post we discussed the possibility of automating Business Processes. As you may remember, for those of us working on NetEye Cloud monitoring dozens of clients, it’s important to be able to standardize and automate the creation of BPs to have a consistent…
Read MoreIntroduction to NetApp and S3 NetApp offers a unified data storage system. NetApp’s ONTAP operating system supports a combination of file, block, and object protocols. We can use common storage (disk array), such as NetApp AFF or FAS, and operate it as file, object, and block storage. On an existing ONTAP cluster, we can enable…
