# Observability — Alloy → Loki / Prometheus → Grafana

Centralized **logs + metrics** for the homelab. Every managed host runs
**Grafana Alloy** (collector). **Loki** (logs), **Prometheus** (metrics), and
**Grafana** (UI / dashboards / alerts) run on **ai-server-4080**. Grafana is
exposed through Nginx Proxy Manager at `10.0.0.230` on an external domain.

| Piece | Where | Role |
|-------|--------|------|
| **Alloy** | every host (`adama`, `roslin`, `ai-server-4080`) | Ship journald + Docker **logs** to Loki; scrape host + container **metrics** → Prometheus |
| **Loki** | `ai-server-4080` only | Store and index logs |
| **Prometheus** | `ai-server-4080` only | Store metrics (CPU, RAM, disk, container health) |
| **Grafana** | `ai-server-4080` only | Explore logs/metrics, dashboards, alerts |
| **NPM** | `10.0.0.230` (external) | TLS + public hostname → Grafana |

**What you get in Grafana**

| View | Datasource | Examples |
|------|------------|----------|
| App / host logs | Loki | `{host="adama", env="prod", app="dta_service"}` |
| Container health | Prometheus | Up/down, restarts, CPU %, memory, network I/O per container |
| System status | Prometheus | Host CPU, RAM, disk, load, network |

This guide is written for a first-time setup. Do the **manual bootstrap** on
ai-server-4080 first so you can see logs **and** metrics flowing. Then wire
Alloy into Ansible provision (`site.yml`) so new hosts get it automatically.

---

## Prerequisites

- Docker + Compose already on all three hosts (`roles/docker` via `./scripts/provision.sh`)
- LAN reachability: hosts can talk to `10.0.0.128:3100` (Loki) and
  `10.0.0.128:9090` (Prometheus remote-write)
- Access to Nginx Proxy Manager at `10.0.0.230`
- A DNS name you control (example used below: `grafana.aimloperations.com` — replace with yours)
- SMTP2GO account (for alerts; covered in [GRAFANA_USAGE.md](GRAFANA_USAGE.md))

Suggested ports (keep free on ai-server-4080):

| Service | Host port | Who can reach it |
|---------|-----------|------------------|
| Loki | `3100` | LAN only (`10.0.0.0/24`) |
| Prometheus | `9090` | LAN only (`10.0.0.0/24`) — Alloy remote-write + Grafana |
| Grafana | `3000` | LAN (NPM proxies to it); do **not** open to the public internet directly |

---

## Part 1 — Central stack on ai-server-4080 (Loki + Prometheus + Grafana)

Run these steps **on ai-server-4080** as `westfarn`.

### 1.1 Create directories

```bash
sudo mkdir -p /opt/apps/observability/{loki,prometheus,grafana,alloy}
sudo chown -R westfarn:westfarn /opt/apps/observability
mkdir -p /opt/apps/observability/loki/{data,rules}
mkdir -p /opt/apps/observability/prometheus/data
mkdir -p /opt/apps/observability/grafana/data
```

### 1.2 Loki config

Create `/opt/apps/observability/loki/loki-config.yml`:

```yaml
# Managed manually for first bootstrap; later: roles/observability template.
auth_enabled: false

server:
  http_listen_port: 3100
  grpc_listen_port: 9096
  log_level: info

common:
  instance_addr: 127.0.0.1
  path_prefix: /loki
  storage:
    filesystem:
      chunks_directory: /loki/chunks
      rules_directory: /loki/rules
  replication_factor: 1
  ring:
    kvstore:
      store: inmemory

schema_config:
  configs:
    - from: "2024-01-01"
      store: tsdb
      object_store: filesystem
      schema: v13
      index:
        prefix: index_
        period: 24h

# Keep labels low-cardinality. host / env / app / job are fine.
# Do NOT put request IDs, user IDs, or full paths in labels.
limits_config:
  reject_old_samples: true
  reject_old_samples_max_age: 168h
  ingestion_rate_mb: 16
  ingestion_burst_size_mb: 32
  max_query_series: 500
  retention_period: 744h   # 31 days

compactor:
  working_directory: /loki/compactor
  compaction_interval: 10m
  retention_enabled: true
  retention_delete_delay: 2h
  delete_request_store: filesystem

ruler:
  alertmanager_url: http://localhost:9093   # unused for now; Grafana handles alerts
```

### 1.3 Prometheus config

Create `/opt/apps/observability/prometheus/prometheus.yml`:

```yaml
# Managed manually for first bootstrap; later: roles/observability template.
global:
  scrape_interval: 15s
  evaluation_interval: 15s

# Alloy on each host *pushes* metrics here (remote_write).
# We still keep a tiny local scrape so Prometheus has a self-health target.
scrape_configs:
  - job_name: prometheus
    static_configs:
      - targets: ["localhost:9090"]
        labels:
          host: ai-server-4080
```

Prometheus must accept remote-write from Alloy — that is enabled with the
`--web.enable-remote-write-receiver` flag in compose (below).

### 1.4 Docker Compose for Loki + Prometheus + Grafana

Create `/opt/apps/observability/docker-compose.yml`:

```yaml
# Managed manually for first bootstrap; later: roles/observability template.
services:
  loki:
    image: grafana/loki:3.4.2
    container_name: loki
    restart: unless-stopped
    user: "0:0"
    command: -config.file=/etc/loki/loki-config.yml
    ports:
      # Bind to all interfaces so Alloy on adama/roslin can push.
      # Firewall (UFW) should restrict who can connect — see 1.6.
      - "3100:3100"
    volumes:
      - ./loki/loki-config.yml:/etc/loki/loki-config.yml:ro
      - ./loki/data:/loki
    healthcheck:
      test: ["CMD-SHELL", "wget -qO- http://127.0.0.1:3100/ready || exit 1"]
      interval: 15s
      timeout: 5s
      retries: 10

  prometheus:
    image: prom/prometheus:v3.2.1
    container_name: prometheus
    restart: unless-stopped
    command:
      - --config.file=/etc/prometheus/prometheus.yml
      - --storage.tsdb.path=/prometheus
      - --storage.tsdb.retention.time=31d
      - --web.enable-remote-write-receiver
      - --web.enable-lifecycle
    ports:
      - "9090:9090"
    volumes:
      - ./prometheus/prometheus.yml:/etc/prometheus/prometheus.yml:ro
      - ./prometheus/data:/prometheus
    healthcheck:
      test: ["CMD-SHELL", "wget -qO- http://127.0.0.1:9090/-/ready || exit 1"]
      interval: 15s
      timeout: 5s
      retries: 10

  grafana:
    image: grafana/grafana:11.5.2
    container_name: grafana
    restart: unless-stopped
    depends_on:
      loki:
        condition: service_healthy
      prometheus:
        condition: service_healthy
    ports:
      # LAN only is fine; NPM on 10.0.0.230 will proxy to this.
      - "3000:3000"
    environment:
      GF_SECURITY_ADMIN_USER: admin
      # Change immediately after first login. Prefer a secrets file later.
      GF_SECURITY_ADMIN_PASSWORD: "CHANGE_ME_ON_FIRST_LOGIN"
      GF_USERS_ALLOW_SIGN_UP: "false"
      GF_SERVER_ROOT_URL: "https://grafana.aimloperations.com"
      GF_SERVER_DOMAIN: "grafana.aimloperations.com"
      # SMTP is configured in the UI or via GF_SMTP_* — see GRAFANA_USAGE.md
    volumes:
      - ./grafana/data:/var/lib/grafana
      - ./grafana/provisioning:/etc/grafana/provisioning:ro
```

Replace `grafana.aimloperations.com` with your real hostname in
`GF_SERVER_ROOT_URL` and `GF_SERVER_DOMAIN`.

### 1.5 Provision Grafana datasources (Loki + Prometheus)

Create provisioning so Grafana auto-connects on every restart:

```bash
mkdir -p /opt/apps/observability/grafana/provisioning/datasources
```

Create `/opt/apps/observability/grafana/provisioning/datasources/datasources.yml`:

```yaml
apiVersion: 1

datasources:
  - name: Loki
    type: loki
    access: proxy
    url: http://loki:3100
    isDefault: false
    editable: false
    jsonData:
      maxLines: 1000

  - name: Prometheus
    type: prometheus
    access: proxy
    url: http://prometheus:9090
    isDefault: true
    editable: false
    jsonData:
      timeInterval: 15s
```

Prometheus is the default datasource so new panels default to metrics;
switch to Loki in Explore when searching logs.

### 1.6 Firewall — allow Loki + Prometheus from LAN only

On **ai-server-4080**, open ingest ports to the LAN (not the world):

```bash
sudo ufw allow from 10.0.0.0/24 to any port 3100 proto tcp comment 'Loki ingest from Alloy'
sudo ufw allow from 10.0.0.0/24 to any port 9090 proto tcp comment 'Prometheus remote-write from Alloy'
sudo ufw allow from 10.0.0.0/24 to any port 3000 proto tcp comment 'Grafana for NPM'
sudo ufw status numbered
```

Later, when this is Ansible-managed, add these ports to a host-specific UFW
allow list in `inventory/host_vars/ai-server-4080.yml` rather than opening
them on every webserver via `ufw_allowed_tcp_ports`.

### 1.7 Start the stack

```bash
cd /opt/apps/observability
docker compose up -d
docker compose ps
curl -s http://127.0.0.1:3100/ready          # expect: ready
curl -s http://127.0.0.1:9090/-/ready        # expect: Prometheus Server is Ready.
curl -s -o /dev/null -w "%{http_code}\n" http://127.0.0.1:3000/login   # expect: 200
```

Open `http://10.0.0.128:3000` from your LAN, log in with `admin` /
`CHANGE_ME_ON_FIRST_LOGIN`, and set a strong password when prompted.

Confirm both datasources: **Connections → Data sources** → Loki and
Prometheus both **Save & test** green.

---

## Part 2 — Expose Grafana on an external domain (NPM)

Nginx Proxy Manager lives at **10.0.0.230** and is **not** managed by this
repo. Do this in the NPM UI.

### 2.1 DNS

Create an A (or CNAME) record for your chosen hostname pointing at the public
IP that reaches NPM (same pattern as your other `*.aimloperations.com` hosts).

Example: `grafana.aimloperations.com` → your public IP / NPM.

### 2.2 Proxy Host in NPM

1. Log into Nginx Proxy Manager.
2. **Hosts → Proxy Hosts → Add Proxy Host**.
3. **Details**
   - Domain Names: `grafana.aimloperations.com` (your name)
   - Scheme: `http`
   - Forward Hostname / IP: `10.0.0.128` (ai-server-4080)
   - Forward Port: `3000`
   - Cache Assets: off
   - Block Common Exploits: on
   - Websockets Support: **on** (Grafana live features need this)
4. **SSL**
   - Request a new Let's Encrypt certificate
   - Force SSL: on
   - HTTP/2: on
5. Save.

### 2.3 Confirm

```bash
curl -sI https://grafana.aimloperations.com/login
```

You should get HTTP 200 (or a redirect to login). Update
`GF_SERVER_ROOT_URL` if the hostname differs, then:

```bash
cd /opt/apps/observability && docker compose up -d grafana
```

---

## Part 3 — Alloy on each machine (logs + metrics)

Alloy runs on **every** host in `webservers`. It:

1. Reads **systemd journal** (host / service logs) → Loki
2. Reads **Docker container logs** → Loki
3. Scrapes **host metrics** (`prometheus.exporter.unix` ≈ node_exporter) → Prometheus
4. Scrapes **container metrics** (`prometheus.exporter.cadvisor`) → Prometheus
5. Attaches labels: `host`, `env`, `app`, `job`, `unit` / `container` / `name`
6. Pushes logs to `http://10.0.0.128:3100/loki/api/v1/push`
7. Remote-writes metrics to `http://10.0.0.128:9090/api/v1/write`

### Labels we care about

**Logs (Loki)**

| Label | Source | Example values |
|-------|--------|----------------|
| `host` | Ansible inventory hostname | `adama`, `roslin`, `ai-server-4080` |
| `job` | collector name | `systemd`, `docker` |
| `env` | Docker Compose project suffix | `beta`, `prod`, `host`, `infra` |
| `app` | Compose project prefix | `company_site`, `dta_service`, `dta_webapp`, … |
| `unit` | systemd unit (journal only) | `docker.service`, `ssh.service` |
| `container` | Docker container name | `company_site_prod-web-1` |

**Metrics (Prometheus)** — same `host` / `env` / `app` idea, plus cAdvisor fields:

| Label | Source | Example values |
|-------|--------|----------------|
| `host` | Added by Alloy relabel | `adama`, `roslin`, `ai-server-4080` |
| `job` | scrape job name | `node`, `cadvisor` |
| `name` | container name (cAdvisor) | `company_site_prod-web-1` |
| `container_label_com_docker_compose_project` | Compose project | `dta_service_prod` |
| `env` / `app` | Parsed from Compose project by Alloy | `prod` / `dta_service` |
| `instance` | scrape target | usually the Alloy exporter address |

Your deploy convention already names Compose projects `<app>_<env>`
(e.g. `company_site_prod`). Alloy parses that for both logs and metrics:

```logql
{host="adama", env="prod", app="dta_service"}
```

```promql
container_memory_usage_bytes{host="adama", env="prod", app="dta_service"}
```

### 3.1 Install Alloy (manual — one host)

Repeat on `adama`, `roslin`, and `ai-server-4080`. Example for **adama**:

```bash
sudo mkdir -p /opt/apps/observability/alloy
sudo chown -R westfarn:westfarn /opt/apps/observability
```

Create `/opt/apps/observability/alloy/config.alloy`. **Change every
`host = "adama"`** on each machine (`adama` / `roslin` / `ai-server-4080`):

```river
// Grafana Alloy — logs → Loki, metrics → Prometheus.
// host label MUST match inventory hostname.

```

### 3.2 Run Alloy with Docker Compose (per host)

cAdvisor + node metrics need host filesystem mounts and privileged mode.
Create `/opt/apps/observability/alloy/docker-compose.yml` on **each** host:

```yaml
services:
  alloy:
    image: grafana/alloy:v1.7.1
    container_name: alloy
    restart: unless-stopped
    privileged: true
    pid: host
    command:
      - run
      - /etc/alloy/config.alloy
      - --storage.path=/var/lib/alloy/data
      - --server.http.listen-addr=0.0.0.0:12345
    volumes:
      - ./config.alloy:/etc/alloy/config.alloy:ro
      - alloy-data:/var/lib/alloy/data
      # Logs
      - /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock:ro
      - /var/log/journal:/var/log/journal:ro
      - /etc/machine-id:/etc/machine-id:ro
      - /run/systemd/journal:/run/systemd/journal:ro
      # Metrics (node + cAdvisor) — host views
      - /proc:/host/proc:ro
      - /sys:/host/sys:ro
      - /:/host/root:ro
      - /var/run:/var/run:ro
      - /var/lib/docker:/var/lib/docker:ro
      - /dev/disk:/dev/disk:ro
    # No published ports required — Alloy pushes outbound to Loki + Prometheus.
    # Optional: expose Alloy's own UI/metrics on LAN for debugging:
    # ports:
    #   - "12345:12345"

volumes:
  alloy-data:
```

Start:

```bash
cd /opt/apps/observability/alloy
docker compose up -d
docker compose logs -f --tail=50
```

Healthy Alloy logs mention connecting / sending without repeated
`connection refused` to either `:3100` or `:9090`.

### 3.3 Verify logs in Grafana (Loki)

1. Open Grafana → **Explore** → datasource **Loki**.
2. Query:

```logql
{host=~".+"}
```

3. Confirm label browser shows `host`, `env`, `app`, `job`.
4. Spot-check each machine:

```logql
{host="adama"}
{host="roslin"}
{host="ai-server-4080"}
```

5. Spot-check env / app:

```logql
{env="prod", app="company_site"}
{env="beta", app="dta_service"}
{job="systemd", host="adama"}
```

If Docker logs show `env="infra"`, that container is not a `<app>_<env>` Compose
project (expected for `loki`, `grafana`, `alloy`, `web-static`).

### 3.4 Verify metrics in Grafana (Prometheus)

1. **Explore** → datasource **Prometheus**.
2. Host metrics present:

```promql
up{job="node"}
node_load1{host=~".+"}
100 - (avg by (host) (rate(node_cpu_seconds_total{mode="idle"}[5m])) * 100)
```

3. Container metrics present:

```promql
up{job="cadvisor"}
container_memory_usage_bytes{host=~".+", name!=""}
rate(container_cpu_usage_seconds_total{host=~".+", name!=""}[5m])
```

4. Labels `host`, `env`, `app` on containers:

```promql
container_memory_usage_bytes{env="prod", app="dta_service"}
```

5. Quick check from the shell on ai-server-4080:

```bash
curl -sG 'http://127.0.0.1:9090/api/v1/label/host/values' | head
curl -sG 'http://127.0.0.1:9090/api/v1/query' \
  --data-urlencode 'query=count(up{job="cadvisor"})'
```

You should see all three hostnames under `host`, and `up` series for
`job="node"` and `job="cadvisor"` from each Alloy.

Dashboard build steps (container health, system status, imports) are in
[GRAFANA_USAGE.md](GRAFANA_USAGE.md) §4–§5.

## Part 4 — Ansible provision (implemented)

Roles are in the repo. `./scripts/provision.sh` runs `site.yml`, which:

1. Base roles on every host (`common` → `tianji`)
2. **`observability`** on `ai-server-4080` when `observability_stack: true`
   (Loki + Prometheus + Grafana + UFW for `3100`/`9090`/`3000`)
3. **`alloy`** on every host (logs → Loki, metrics → Prometheus)

Alloy is Grafana’s Promtail successor; one agent covers logs **and** metrics.

### 4.1 Layout

```
roles/
├── alloy/                         # every webserver
│   ├── defaults/main.yml
│   ├── tasks/main.yml
│   └── templates/
│       ├── config.alloy.j2
│       └── docker-compose.yml.j2
└── observability/                 # ai-server-4080 only
    ├── defaults/main.yml
    ├── tasks/main.yml
    └── templates/
        ├── docker-compose.yml.j2
        ├── loki-config.yml.j2
        ├── prometheus.yml.j2
        └── grafana-datasources.yml.j2
```

### 4.2 Inventory

Vars in `inventory/group_vars/all.yml` (`loki_url`, `prometheus_url`,
`grafana_public_url`, …). Flag in `inventory/host_vars/ai-server-4080.yml`:

```yaml
observability_stack: true
```

`playbooks/site.yml` order: base → observability (4080) → alloy (all).

### 4.3 Secrets

- Default Grafana password is `CHANGE_ME_ON_FIRST_LOGIN` (role default). Change
  on first login, or set `observability_grafana_admin_password` in host_vars /
  vault (never commit real passwords).
- SMTP2GO: see [GRAFANA_USAGE.md](GRAFANA_USAGE.md).

### 4.4 Apply

```bash
./scripts/provision.sh ai-server-4080 --check
./scripts/provision.sh ai-server-4080
./scripts/provision.sh adama
./scripts/provision.sh roslin
# or all (site.yml orders stack before Alloy):
./scripts/provision.sh
```

## Part 5 — Day-2 operations

### Useful LogQL starters

```logql
# Everything from one host
{host="adama"}

# One app in prod across all hosts
{app="dta_service", env="prod"}

# Errors (text match — tune per app)
{app="company_site", env="prod"} |= "ERROR"

# Rate of log lines per host (Explore → Build a dashboard)
sum by (host) (rate({job="docker"}[5m]))
```

### Useful PromQL starters

```promql
# Host CPU % busy
100 - (avg by (host) (rate(node_cpu_seconds_total{mode="idle"}[5m])) * 100)

# Host memory % used
100 * (1 - (node_memory_MemAvailable_bytes / node_memory_MemTotal_bytes))

# Disk % used (root)
100 - ((node_filesystem_avail_bytes{mountpoint="/",fstype!="rootfs"}
  * 100) / node_filesystem_size_bytes{mountpoint="/",fstype!="rootfs"})

# Container CPU cores used
sum by (host, name, app, env) (
  rate(container_cpu_usage_seconds_total{name!=""}[5m])
)

# Container memory working set
sum by (host, name, app, env) (
  container_memory_working_set_bytes{name!=""}
)

# Containers that disappeared / stopped reporting (up == 0)
up{job="cadvisor"} == 0
```

### Check Alloy → Loki / Prometheus path

On a shipper host:

```bash
cd /opt/apps/observability/alloy && docker compose logs --tail=100 alloy
```

On ai-server-4080:

```bash
curl -s "http://127.0.0.1:3100/loki/api/v1/label/host/values"
curl -s "http://127.0.0.1:9090/api/v1/label/host/values"
curl -sG "http://127.0.0.1:9090/api/v1/query" \
  --data-urlencode 'query=count by (host, job) (up)'
```

### Restart / update images

```bash
cd /opt/apps/observability && docker compose pull && docker compose up -d
cd /opt/apps/observability/alloy && docker compose pull && docker compose up -d
```

### Disk

Loki + Prometheus retention are both ~31 days in the sample configs. Watch:

```bash
du -sh /opt/apps/observability/loki/data \
      /opt/apps/observability/prometheus/data
```

## Part 6 — Checklist

### Central stack (ai-server-4080)

- [ ] `/opt/apps/observability` created
- [ ] Loki + Prometheus configs + Grafana datasource provisioning in place
- [ ] `docker compose up -d` — Loki ready, Prometheus ready, Grafana login on `:3000`

- [ ] UFW allows `3100`, `9090`, and `3000` from `10.0.0.0/24` only
- [ ] Admin password changed from default
- [ ] DNS + NPM proxy host with SSL + websockets
- [ ] `GF_SERVER_ROOT_URL` matches public URL
- [ ] Both Loki and Prometheus datasources green in Grafana

### Alloy (each of adama, roslin, ai-server-4080)

- [ ] `config.alloy` has correct `host = "..."` (or Ansible `inventory_hostname`)
- [ ] Alloy container running privileged with host `/proc` `/sys` mounts
- [ ] Can reach `10.0.0.128:3100` and `10.0.0.128:9090`

### Follow-ups

- [x] Encode `roles/alloy` + `roles/observability` and add to `site.yml`
- [ ] Optional: drop or keep Tianji side-by-side (they do not conflict)
- [ ] NPM proxy + change Grafana admin password
- [ ] SMTP2GO + dashboards — [GRAFANA_USAGE.md](GRAFANA_USAGE.md)

## Troubleshooting

| Symptom | Likely cause | Fix |
|---------|--------------|-----|
| Alloy: connection refused to Loki | Loki down or UFW blocking | `docker compose ps` on 4080; `ufw status`; `curl 10.0.0.128:3100/ready` from shipper |
| Alloy: connection refused to Prometheus | Prometheus down, no remote-write flag, or UFW | Confirm `--web.enable-remote-write-receiver`; `curl 10.0.0.128:9090/-/ready`; open `9090` from LAN |
| No container metrics / empty cAdvisor | Missing privileged / mounts | Alloy compose needs `privileged: true`, `/sys`, `/var/lib/docker`, docker.sock |
| Node metrics look like container’s own tiny FS | Wrong `rootfs_path` / mounts | Use `/host/proc`, `/host/sys`, `/host/root` mounts as in §3.2 |
| No `env`/`app` on Docker logs/metrics | Container not from Compose, or missing compose labels | `docker inspect <id>` for `com.docker.compose.project` |
| Wrong `host` label | Hardcoded wrong in `config.alloy` | Fix host string or use Ansible template |
| Grafana behind NPM shows blank / websocket errors | Websockets off in NPM | Enable Websockets on the Proxy Host |
| Grafana redirects to wrong host | `GF_SERVER_ROOT_URL` mismatch | Set to `https://your.domain` and recreate container |
| Disk filling on 4080 | Retention / volume growth | Lower Loki `retention_period` / Prometheus `--storage.tsdb.retention.time` |
