| description | Boot or verify the Grafana Alloy observability stack (DGX → Grafana Cloud). Walks the runbook — Grafana Cloud creds → .env → docker compose up → verify in Grafana Explore → import dashboards → pin image tags. Read and verify steps are safe; the compose up is gated on explicit approval. Use when standing up or checking the observability stack. |
obs-boot
Drive and verify the observability stack boot. Source runbook:
docs/recipes/observability-boot.md. Verify steps are read-only; the compose
up is shared-state and gated.
Steps
- Creds (read-only). Confirm the three Grafana Cloud values are in
infra/observability/.env (cp .env.example .env if missing). Never commit
the real .env.
- Config check (read-only). Run
compose-check on infra/observability
(docker compose config -q).
- Boot — SHARED-STATE, approval. From
infra/observability/ in place:
docker compose up -d.
- Verify (read-only). In Grafana Cloud Explore, confirm node / DCGM / vLLM /
cAdvisor metrics arrive (filter
instance="homelab-1"); healthchecks green.
- Dashboards + pin tags. Import the four dashboards; after a verified boot,
pin the
:latest image tags to the concrete versions.
