Comment on What sort of things do y'all monitor with Grafana / Beszel / etc.?

I mean, I got the whole set of default dashboards, some for the networking and one each for backups (k8up) and Postgres (CloudNativePG), but I don’t look at them often, usually only if something’s wrong. I also have logs available via Grafana, but I don’t have any dashboards for that, I just query what I need. Image

I think aggregating logs would be a good choice, yeah. My homelab is distributed across 5 machines, so it’s been getting a little unruly to ssh into them all the time.

Yeah, for most things, a premade dashboard exists, and if it isn’t fully to your liking, just customize it. Also for more professionally maintained metrics exporters like the node-exporter, there’s usually an official dashboard. But learning PromQL before relying on premade stuff is probably a good idea, so you know how to adapt them to your needs
