Navigate to "Dashboards" (four squares icon) in the left sidebar + - Click on your imported dashboard + +2. **Verify Metrics**: + - Panels should display data if the tracker is active + - If panels show "No data", verify: + - Prometheus data source is configured correctly + - Tracker is running and processing requests + - Time range is appropriate (try "Last 1 hour" or "Last 6 hours") + +### Troubleshooting Empty Dashboards + +If dashboards appear empty: + +1. **Check Time Range**: + + - Use the time picker in the top-right corner + - Try "Last 1 hour" or "Last 24 hours" + +2. **Verify Data Source**: + + - Go to dashboard settings (gear icon) + - Ensure the correct Prometheus data source is selected + +3. **Test Queries Manually**: + - Go to "Explore" and test individual metrics + - Common tracker metrics to test: + - `torrust_tracker_announces_total` + - `torrust_tracker_scrapes_total` + - `torrust_tracker_connections_total` + +## Step 6: Create Custom Dashboards (Optional) + +### Create New Dashboard + +1. **Start New Dashboard**: + + - Click "+" → "Dashboard" + - Click "Add visualization" + +2. **Select Data Source**: + + - Choose your Prometheus data source + +3. **Configure Panel**: + + - **Query**: Enter a Prometheus query (e.g., `rate(torrust_tracker_announces_total[5m])`) + - **Visualization**: Choose chart type (Time series, Stat, Gauge, etc.) + - **Panel title**: Give your panel a descriptive name + +4. **Save Dashboard**: + - Click "Save" (disk icon) + - Provide a name and optional description + - Choose a folder or leave in "General" + +### Common Tracker Metrics + +Here are some useful metrics to monitor: + +```promql +# Announce rate (requests per second) +rate(torrust_tracker_announces_total[5m]) + +# Active torrents count +torrust_tracker_torrents + +# Active peers (seeders + leechers) +torrust_tracker_seeders + torrust_tracker_leechers + +# Error rate +rate(torrust_tracker_errors_total[5m]) + +# Response time percentiles +histogram_quantile(0.95, rate(torrust_tracker_response_time_seconds_bucket[5m])) +``` + +## Configuration Examples + +### Example Prometheus Configuration + +If you need to verify your Prometheus configuration, it should include: + +```yaml +# prometheus.yml (for reference) +global: + scrape_interval: 15s + +scrape_configs: + -

**root user crontab** (`sudo crontab -e`), but this can be +improved for better security: + +**Recommended Approach**: Use **`torrust` user** for cron jobs with appropriate sudo permissions + +**Benefits**: + +- ✅ **Better Security**: Reduces attack surface by avoiding root cron jobs +- ✅ **Easier Management**: User-specific crontabs are easier to manage and audit +- ✅ **Consistent Permissions**: Aligns with application file ownership + +**Required Permissions**: + +1. **SSL Renewal**: Requires docker group membership (already configured) +2. **Database Backup**: Requires access to MySQL container and backup directory +3. **Container Management**: May require limited sudo for container restart operations + +**Sudo Configuration** (if needed): + +```bash +# Add to /etc/sudoers.d/torrust-automation +torrust ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/docker, /usr/bin/docker-compose +torrust ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /bin/systemctl restart nginx +``` + +**Note**: The current cloud-init setup already adds `torrust` to the `docker` group, so most +operations should work without additional sudo permissions. + +### Task 3: Integration and Documentation + +#### 3.1 Cloud-Init Integration for Crontab Setup + +Add to `infrastructure/cloud-init/user-data.yaml.tpl`: + +```yaml +runcmd: + # ... existing commands ... + + # Setup automated maintenance tasks + - echo "Setting up automated maintenance tasks..." + - crontab -u torrust /home/torrust/github/torrust/torrust-tracker-demo/application/share/container/default/config/crontab.conf + - echo "Crontab configured for SSL renewal and database backups" +``` + +#### 3.2 Create Production Deployment Validation Script + +Enhance `infrastructure/scripts/validate-deployment.sh` to check: + +- MySQL backup directory exists and is writable +- Crontab is properly configured +- SSL certificate status (if domain provided) + +```bash +# Add to validate-deployment.sh +check_backup_system() { + echo "Checking backup system..." + + local backup_dir="/var/lib/torrust/mysql/backups" + if [[ -d "$backup_dir" && -w "$backup_dir" ]]; then + echo "✅ MySQL backup directory: READY" + else + echo "❌ MySQL backup directory: NOT

crontab: NOT CONFIGURED" + return 1 + fi +} +``` + +## Technical Implementation Details + +### Implementation Approach + +The implementation **extends the existing `infrastructure/scripts/deploy-app.sh`** rather than +modifying cloud-init, since application deployment and automation are already handled by the +twelve-factor deployment scripts. + +**Current
