In my previous post I did show some command-line tools that could be useful for showing interesting metrics about your Mac. I also told that in the follow-up post I would show you how to monitor your Apple Silicon (with that, I mean Apple M-series chips CPU/GPU/ANE [Apple Neural Engine]) with Zabbix.

I'm almost successful with that, but then still embarrassingly far. This has not been my most successful project so far. I am sure there would be so many better ways -- if so, please let me know! 

Can you monitor your MacBook behaviour with Zabbix? Of course you can!

My personal Mac is old. It's way too old, actually. It's a MacBook Pro Retina mid-2012 -- yes, I bought it back in August 2012. It has served me well, even so well that with OpenCore Legacy Patcher it has been if not snappy, but fast enough to use for my blogging purposes and so forth. The laptop was running macOS Ventura until few days back, but then I made a mistake -- a big mistake -- as I upgraded it to latest macOS Sonoma.

Can you monitor your webcam activity with Zabbix? Of course you can! By day, I work as a monitoring technical lead in a global cyber security company. By night, I monitor my home with Zabbix & Grafana and do some weird experiments with them. Welcome to my weekly blog about this project.

Can you monitor your Bluetooth headset usage hours with Zabbix? Of course you can! By day, I earn living by being a monitoring tech lead in a global cyber security company. By night, I monitor my home with Zabbix and Grafana and do some weird experiments with them. Welcome to my weekly blog about how I monitor my home.
