xymongen tells me I have 3848 hosts on 447 pages.  Of those, about 1800 are
registers, with another 400 seasonal registers that are just starting to be
spun up for the holidays.

I've got a Xymon VM server that's monitoring 100 hosts, mostly collecting
PowerShell Client data from Windows clients.
Disk = 10G and has filled to 86% after 3 years.  I'll probably need to
expand it a little bit one of these days.
CPU = 1 core, utilization hovers around 1%
Ram = 2G, utilization hovers around 15%

I've got another Xymon server running at a client location on a Raspberry
Pi.  It's been running for 2 years with no trouble.

I had one running on AWS once, but had trouble with backups and migration,
so I abandoned AWS.

The beauty of Xymon is that it can run very lean.  I normally use Ubuntu
headless server, but I got it working easily on Raspbian too.

I'm 4/20 gig after 495 days of uptime.  Graphs for 30 hosts.  I have data
from an older server that started probably 2006.


Xymon is not disk intensive, it's all text and RRD.

Good morning!


I am attempting to spin up my first Xymon server and would like advice on
system requirements, primarily disk space required but CPU count and RAM
would also be greatly be appreciated.  Looking at initially monitoring 20
hosts and would like some room to grow.  Most likely will be running Xymon
on FreeBSD.


Any help would be greatly appreciated!


Thank you!

Brad
