Incus Server¶
Monitoring¶
updown.io sits at the top of the monitoring stack: it watches both Uptime Kuma and the Incus server via Pulse, a cron-based dead man's switch. Everything else in the infrastructure is monitored by Uptime Kuma itself. Alerts from updown.io are sent via SMS, since all self-hosted notification channels (email, etc.) could be down at the same time.
The Incus server sends a Pulse ping every hour; if the ping stops arriving, updown.io triggers an alert.
