Hi zbjornson, regarding your question about "Wondering what the free version uses if it doesn't include graphite for dashboarding": the answer is that free version just includes the icingaweb dashboards and not those implemented with grafana.

Also I'd like to clarify a possible misunderstanding: Monitor in a Box does not require that ansible be installed on all the servers. We only require that ansible be installed on the one machine that orchestrates the setup of Monitor in a Box.

Ah, thanks for clarifying, I misunderstood that part of your FAQ.

Looking forward to trying it out.

The free version doesn't provide any visualizations other than what you see in the icingaweb dashboards. The icinga demo (not grafana) should give you an idea of what I mean: https://solutions.stacktile.io/demo

In the spirit of shameless self-promotion, I invite you to clone our git repo and see for yourself! :-)
