@vwbusguy When we decided to use a new monitoring system, we checked out checkmk too. It has a lot of different plugins that work right out of the box, but we wanted to lay more focus on K8s and therefore went with Prometheus. But checkmk is very good, just wasn't the right fit for us.
@buddyspencer Yeah, we're using prometheus, as well. This is ironically for monitoring stuff like prometheus in case something goes wrong and alertmanager can't tell us about it. We also have snmp traps setup for some other server environs.
@vwbusguy I migrated approximately 1k hosts from Centreon to CheckMK, because its rule-based mindset was much more fitting for the environment. There was no Kubernetes or Prometheus involved.
It can be quite confusing which changes require an activation and which don't, but all in all I really liked it.
