I need some ideas how to use spare server
-
I've been wanting to get a Fedora 26 KVM with Kimchi fully functional.

I'm gonna try it this weekend in my personal lab.
Your server would be nice for something like that!

I've used Zabbix in the past and wasn't impressed. Web interface was horrible, and there was no comparison to Nagios in terms of what you could monitor.
Icinga is a fork of Nagios so I don't know how I feel about it, Nagios has one of the worst config structure I've seen, defining hosts or checks in Nagios is a pain and require more babysitting than a newborn baby. I don't know if Icinga devs learned the lessons or if they continued with the mess. Nice web dashboard on top doesn't make things any better.
Icinga used to be a fork of nagios. They started from scratch for icinga2. Maybe they learned the lesson... Not really sure.

Host your own blog, bulletin board, Irc, mail client, and I'm running out of ideas.
Wrong direction. All that is more of a hobby. Elk stack was a good suggestion, I'm leaning towards Sensu, Vector, Salt, Consul, perhaps Snipe-It, that kind of stuff.
Sensu looks like it could be interesting. I may give that one ago too.
