Monitor All Your Servers with Uptime Robot (It's Free!)

[@MooseyGeek]

Wow, this is such a great tool. I can't believe you can monitor 50. Plenty for me... LOL

[@shawnp0wers]

Right?!? I thought it was a very generous offering. :)

[@fred.c.johnston]

Nice, but i would have liked to see the actual setup to Pushover! (is it API and built into UptimeRobot?)

[@shawnp0wers]

Yes - it’s built in. I do have a video on using pushover though! :)

[@fred.c.johnston]

@@shawnp0wers ya, that was the first I watched, thanks.

[@DarioCruzII]

Going to set this up for my unraid server. Thanks bro!

[@shawnp0wers]

Cool! When paired with pushover.net, it’s already saved my bacon a few times. :)

Hi Shawn,, I am using statuscake for uptime monitoring. Which one is your prefer uptime robot or the one I use? Just need your view point.

[@shawnp0wers]

Honestly, Joko -- I think they're both great. UptimeRobot focuses more on just uptime, whereas StatusCake has more robust monitoring. That said, UptimeRobot allows more free monitors. If you're already using one, I'm not sure switching just to switch makes sense. Thanks for the question!

hey, there is a new update where it says, monitor timeout, what to do with that?

[@shawnp0wers]

For most situations, it looks like you can leave it be. It allows for very precise timeouts, like if you need your server to respond is less than 3 seconds for instance. The docs say it’s 1-60sec by default.
