I am looking for an application that will monitor the status of the application, items such as uptime, drive health, free space, etc and email me when problems are found. Any suggestions??
On ZimaOS, the most practical approach is to use a small combination of tools rather than a single app that tries to do everything.
Uptime Kuma works very well for monitoring whether apps and services are actually up. It checks things like container uptime, web interfaces, ports, and basic connectivity, and it can send you an email as soon as something goes down or becomes unreachable. This covers the “is it running” side of monitoring.
For overall system health, Netdata is a strong fit. It continuously monitors CPU, memory, disk usage, temperatures, and free space, and it has built-in alerting so you can receive emails when thresholds are exceeded, such as a disk filling up or sustained high load. This gives you a real-time view of how healthy the system is, not just whether it is online.
For drive health specifically, Scrutiny focuses on SMART data and disk warnings. It is designed to catch early signs of drive failure and alert you before a disk actually dies, which is something uptime and resource monitoring alone cannot do.
Together, these three cover uptime, system resources, free space, and drive health, and they run well on ZimaOS. It is a clean, reliable setup that gives you early warnings without being heavy or overly complex.
