Some variables that were intendet to be used were in fact not used (e.g.
allTargets) but that will be needed as soon as we have a second non-dev
host in our nixfiles.
With all https://tickets.chaos.jetzt/shortcode links will redirect to
the appropriate ticket-shop without a need for us to place manual
redirect links.
With https://github.com/chaos-jetzt/website_pelican/pull/33, a lot of
orphans are to be expected which will take up space on our servers. This
introduces a timer which runs once a week and will delete any
website generations older than 28 days.
The actual 404 will be generated from pelican. log_not_found was set for
privacy reasons (since we don't have a favicon, every request still gets
logged with it's full IP due to the 404)
I didn't notice this was missing in #5 until after deploying it. Since
the ports on the monitoring-network-interface (ens10) were not open,
scraping would fail and thus generate alerts.
The goal is to create a monitoring setup where each server monitors
itself when it comes failing systemd services, disk or RAM filling up,
…. In addition each prometheus will monitor remote prometheus and
alertmanager instances for signs of failure (e.g. being unreachable,
errors in notification delivery, dropping alerts).
A lot of metrics (especially histograms from prometheus or alertmanager)
are being dropped before ingestion to disk save on space and memory.
Depending on how many servers we may or may not have in the future this
could probably use some kind of overhaul since we rightnow have n^2
monitoring peer relationships (not even speaking of possible duplicated
alerts).
I decoded on the somewhat unordered looking isDev thing in order to
clearly indicate the seperation between the dev and production setup in
E-Mails for security reasons.
