Yesterday Zabbix blog had a fascinating entry on how you can use Zabbix to monitor Zabbix Security Advisories. The blog post does go above and beyond to make sure that everything gets captures planned, and does so by using web scraping and AWS Lambdas, for example. Their solution for sure generates better results than what I'm going to show you, but what I'm offering here is a solution that's 100% produced within Zabbix instead of using any 3rd party code.

After all Qubes OS and monZphere blogging, let's get closer to original theme of my blog - home monitoring, or monitoring myself.

Zabbix 7.0 API got a nice little history.push method, allowing you to send data to Zabbix over its API. How I'm going to use it? Thanks for asking, I'm going to send the song names of the music I'm listening to. For the sake of simplicity, this entry shows how to send a single value.

As I now have GPT4All perfectly suitable for writing fascinating stories about everything, why not to utilize it even more? Please welcome the new spin-off website, What's up, home? Generative AI Edition. A cronjob running on my What's up, home? environment will run itself every morning 7am Finnish time, generate a fresh new story based on active Zabbix alerts, and post it to the new website over Drupal API.
