Hey everyone,
I recently had a power outage at my backup location, and it seems to have messed with my TrueNAS box. It got stuck in a weird state, but thankfully a reboot fixed it. The problem is, I don't check my offsite server that often since it's a secondary location. This time, I only found out because I got an alert about my ZFS replication failing.
My question is: How can I best check if my replication is actually working properly?
I was thinking about setting up Uptime Kuma to monitor the offsite TrueNAS web interface. While this wouldn't necessarily tell me if replication is failing, it might catch issues like SSH being unresponsive. Ideally, I'd like to get Telegram alerts for any problems.
Anyone have any suggestions for a better or cool way to monitor my TrueNAS replication health?
