Customer 1 runs a small web platform on two hosts: the web host cust1 and the database host db1.

Hosts[edit]

Host Role Agent access
cust1.gobyl.cc Website and application ssh as root, key in OpenBao at secret/customers/cust1
db1.gobyl.cc PostgreSQL database Read-only: ssh as dbops (no sudo), key at secret/customers/cust1-db. See Db1

Services on cust1[edit]

Service How it runs Port Notes
Website nginx, static files in /var/www/html 80 Public trading dashboard with a live platform-telemetry graph. Market data and the telemetry traces are generated in the browser, so the page renders with the application down and the graph is not a measurement of the host
Application systemd unit nodeapp, code in /opt/app 3000 Account service: serves customer positions from PostgreSQL on db1 as JSON at /api/positions, which the website fetches. Reads config from /opt/app/config.json

Operational notes[edit]

  • Restart services with systemctl restart nginx|nodeapp.
  • Application logs: journalctl -u nodeapp. It exits nonzero if /opt/app/config.json is missing or the database is unreachable.
  • The database is PostgreSQL on Db1, port 5432, reachable only from inside the network. If the app reports database errors, check db1 too - but remember this agent may only diagnose there, not change anything.
  • Disk pressure history: log growth under /var/log has filled the disk before. Safe to delete old files in /var/log/app-debug/.
  • Monitoring: Icinga checks website, nodeapp and disk on cust1, and postgres and disk on db1, from the ops core host.

Escalation[edit]

Before changing anything, check the Maintenance calendar and open tickets for planned work. If the fix is not obvious or requires data-destructive steps, stop and hand over to the on-call engineer in the Incidents channel. Changes on db1 always require an engineer (or an emergency access grant) - see Db1.
