Hi everyone, responding to old thread regarding netdata since my post is related to the topic. I recently started using netdata to monitor my home server and was also interested in monitoring my zoneminder monitors, so I made a plugin for netdata. If anyone is interested I uploaded it to github: https://github.com/pepe386/netdata-zoneminder

It basically monitors cameras fps, bandwidth, events, and disk usage. I have a couple of alarms set and email notifications on netdata so that I get emails when average fps drop below 5 or when zoneminder api is unreachable. Hope this is useful to someone else.

Does running netdata interfere with zoneminder mysql apache2?

What version to install repository (UBUNTU 18.04=1.9 - 20.04=1.19 or install by script?

Does it tax the CPU?

netdata uses ports 8125 and 19999 (web interface is on this port), so it does not interfere with apache2 or mysql default installations. It actually can be used to monitor apache and mysql as well.

I installed by script and so far no issues, it automatically updates. I run my home server on Linux MInt, intel cpu i5-4460 and netdata cpu usage is negligible. I also run netdata on a raspberry pi 4 and cpu usage is negligible as well.

Ok Thanks for the info will look into it
