Questions for #fediverse #SysAdmin folk who run #prometheus and #grafana on multiple #aws accounts:

Do you use a single Prometheus server or do you have one for each account?

How do you handle auto scaling EC2 servers which could change IPs at any time?

Is it possible for servers to push rather than get pulled from?

Please share any setups that could be relevant and boost far & wide!

Thanks in advance!! ❤️❤️❤️

To anyone installing #grafana #loki into #Debian from their repos, it has a bug where the config file includes an element no longer valid and it just crashes. Also, somehow, the systemd unit that comes with it does not accept the verb reload, so you can only restart, but it might not be a packaging error but the fact that loki does not just reload the config file. Finally, the config file also sets the logging level to `debug`, so it becomes immediately very verbose in the logs.

#til that if you change a #grafana 's panel's serie's¹ colors², they're not saved with the dashboard. They're lost the moment you look elsewhere.

Also: for when can we copying a panel from instance to instance will be possible? Took me 30m to recreated this panel: 13 queries, 4 overrides, custom legends:

¹ is this valid #English
² not a possessive.

On weekend I managed to connect all my selfhosted services that support it to the #Keycloak #SSO (single sign on).
Namely #Mastodon #Peertube #NextCloud #FreshRSS #Matomo and #grafana

Why to bother with such complication for apps serving only a couple of users?
First it's quite easy nowadays.
And second, because I want to get rid of passwords and just use #passkeys .

This is one of many examples showing that good apps should just focus on one task and just use standards to cooperate with other apps focusing on other tasks.

Peertube for example focuses on videos, not user management. I am very OK that they don't support passkeys, because they implemented OpenId Connect standard to allow me use Keycloak for better login options.

On the other hand, I am quite sad that SSO is often the one feature, that is proprietary and reserved only for paying customers. SSO is not for huge corporations anymore. It's also usefull for us, selfhosters with couple of users.

Finally completed my rebuild of my #Grafana #prometheus #vps stack.

The old one was hosed in a 3 month battle with a #cryptominer
It was #docker but they kept fucking the Prometheus container.

I rebuild everything from scratch. The panels are integrated into a single JSON file, rather than in libraries.

The stack is now #podman. Rootless execution.
But I couldn't get it to get #cadvisor to feed it.
So I got a dodgy scraper script.
But even with nice, it loads the low tier VPS to 14%

Is your company looking for a keen self-hoster with plenty of #Linux experience? I grew up with #RaspberryPi and have picked up many skills along the way including #React, backend JavaScript (#NodeJS) and #Docker. My current obsession is monitoring all the things with #Grafana, #PRTG and #Prometheus. I’m based in the UK but open to primarily English-speaking roles in Germany, too. Currently wrapping up my Advanced Software Development degree but eager to continue learning! Boosts appreciated :D

This is a bit of a #grafana geek thing...

I'm fairly new to it.
I can put together a dashboard...but usually I just pick one from a library as it's got all the bits.

Since my server got hosed.
I have to rebuild everything.
And of course the panels are gone because the local library is gone.

Now here is how powerful the #AI is. I fed it the dashboard JSON...
...AND IT GUESSED (mostly correctly) the External dashboard panels.
This has saved me DAYS of work.

This is why I am sceptical of all those AI sceptics ...
"dEr iS nO usE kASe for Ai!!1!!1"

...no there isn't...not for you.

In which I monitor my home network with Grafana, Loki, Prometheus, and Alloy.

blog.fixermark.com · Monitoring Home Network With Grafana, Loki, Prometheus, and Alloy in Docker (part 1)Having gotten to three whole nodes in my home network, I’ve decided it’s about time to get some centralized monitoring going. To that end, I’ve gone with what I’m (vaguely) familiar with: the Grafana open source logs display and its accompanying pieces. Here, I’ll lay out approximately how I got working home monitoring set up after a couple missteps. Part 1 will focus on everything except Prometheus and then we’ll come back to that one in part 2.

Score! Managed to hook the cluster at home up to #Grafana #cloud over #OTLP for shipping #traces 🎉 . Next up:
* Figure out how to do a better presentation in Grafana
* Optimize OTEL collection deployment, work out all the issues etc

Then the real fun begins. As I have two WIP packages to bring out:
* One for @reactphp 's filesystem
* And one for Bunny

Both of those need to be refined, but with Shawn Maddock's (github.com/smaddock) initial push in this direction and help
