Hi Stefan,

thanks again and again for your effort.
I keep an eye on monitoring in between, at the latest when there are 
major TW updates and zypper grumbles about problems resolving packages.

I dimly remember using monitoring at some point somewhere for some 
project that checked for differences on a site - similar to 
https://visualping.io/
Maybe this is something usable (e.g. if you draw a frame just above the 
service blocks on the status page and then let it monitor them, an info 
mail should go out if an icon changes from "running" to "dead").

ciao,
Paolo
