vmalert on control evaluates rules (declared in git) against VictoriaMetrics and
remote-writes alert state back, so firing alerts show as the ALERTS series in
Grafana. Covers SOA divergence between ns1/ns2, secondary zone expiry, scrape
target down, and root disk full. No notifier yet (notifier.blackhole). Also adds
TODO.md roadmap.
Docs live in docs/ (DNS, ZeroTier mesh, monitoring), built at Nix-build time and
served as static files over the ZeroTier mesh on control:8080. Commit-to-edit:
change the markdown and redeploy to publish.
control runs VictoriaMetrics (loopback) and Grafana; every machine exports
node metrics and the nameservers export Knot stats (mod-stats + knot-exporter).
Scraping and the Grafana UI ride the ZeroTier mesh only, scoped by nftables to
the mesh /88; the public side stays closed by the Hetzner cloud firewall. The
provisioned DNS dashboard includes a per-zone SOA serial table to catch
primary/secondary drift. ZeroTier ULAs are centralised in mesh-hosts.nix.
Extract the per-firewall rule data out of control's configuration into
modules/hetzner-firewall-rules.nix, imported like the DNS domains list.
The evaluated rules are unchanged.
control runs a oneshot on each deploy that creates each firewall if
missing and replaces its rules via the Hetzner API set_rules action,
using a Read/Write token stored as a clan secret. Public SSH is not
exposed; admin access rides the ZeroTier mesh, with emergency-access as
the console fallback.
