Working with Nodinite

Nodinite is now installed and configured, and you can start to work with it. As described in the Planning Guide, your next goal is to enable self-service, so the business gets value from Nodinite without waiting for IT.

Become a producer, not just a consumer. Turn errors and problems into value: don't only react, use the information to plan and apply root-cause fixes for recurring problems.
