[Notifications for system updates?]

Is it / will it be possible to get system OS updates availability?

An aptitude monitor to return number of system updates would be fantastic.

[MySQL Monitoring?]

@Chris

Top 5 features for MySQL monitoring:

1. Overall load (thread count)
2. Overall transfer (bytes i/o)
3. Busiest table
4. Cache status
5. (not set)

We would really enjoy having MySQL monitoring support on Linux (Debian specifically)

[Managed Virtual Server (Cloudways) w/o root]

What would be the best practice for installing the agent on a virtual Linux machine where I don't have root access?

• The server is managed at/by cloudways.com
• Their support is phenomenal, I can always direct them to install for me (but then I would have to give them my account password)
• For the most part I would just need to monitor a running instance of Laravel (web framework) on Apache and MySQL (i saw MySQL monitoring is currently in the works)
• Would the API be a better solution for this case?

Any thoughts appreciated.
