Monitoring is out of scope for NetBox. Please see the documentation.

@jeremystretch I think you misunderstood the point of this. This is not to monitor other network assets, this is to have an endpoint within netbox itself that is able to report the health of itself. In other words, is netbox healthy and operational?

IMO the functionality proposed does not meet the bar for introducing a new dependency (django-watchman).

This is why we implemented Prometheus metrics. You don't have to use a Prometheus server to use the exposed metrics as a health page.

I don't think this belongs in core. Maybe a good candidate for a plugin in a future release.
