Configurare noua (How To)

Situatie

If your workstation keeps running into the same errors (services crashing, high CPU, missing files), you can make it fix itself.

Solutie

  1. Install a monitoring agent:

    • Windows → Zabbix Agent

    • Linux → sudo apt install zabbix-agent

  2. Find common problems in logs:

    • Windows: check Event ViewerWindows Logs → System/Application

    • Linux: run journalctl -xe

  3. Create scripts to fix them automatically:

    • Restarting the Print Spooler on Windows (PowerShell):

      Restart-Service -Name Spooler -Force
    • Restarting Network on Linux (Bash):

      sudo systemctl restart NetworkManager
  4. Configure monitoring tool to run the script when the problem appears.

    • Example (Zabbix action): if service fails → execute script.

  5. Add alerts → configure email/Slack notifications if the script fails.

  6. Test: stop a service manually, see if it restarts automatically.

  7. Deploy to more machines after confirming it works.
