    static_configs:
      - targets: ['localhost:9101']
        labels:
          service: 'disaster-recovery'
          environment: 'production'

🆘 Troubleshooting

Metrics Server Not Responding

# Check service status
sudo systemctl status dr-metrics-server.service

# View logs
sudo journalctl -u dr-metrics-server.service -n 50 -f

# Restart service
sudo systemctl restart dr-metrics-server.service

# Test endpoint manually
curl http://localhost:9101/health
curl http://localhost:9101/metrics | head -20

Dashboard Not Showing Data

# Check Prometheus scraping
# Go to Prometheus UI: http://localhost:9091/targets
# Look for job 'insightlearn-disaster-recovery'

# Manually query metric
curl 'http://localhost:9091/api/v1/query?query=insightlearn_dr_backup_last_status'

# Check Grafana datasource
# Grafana UI → Configuration → Data Sources → Prometheus
# Test connection

Metrics Stale/Not Updating

# Run metrics export manually
sudo /home/mpasqui/insightlearn_WASM/InsightLearn_WASM/k8s/export-dr-metrics.sh

# Check if backup script calls metrics export
grep "export-dr-metrics" /home/mpasqui/insightlearn_WASM/InsightLearn_WASM/k8s/backup-cluster-state.sh

# Force backup to update metrics
sudo /home/mpasqui/insightlearn_WASM/InsightLearn_WASM/k8s/backup-cluster-state.sh

Service	URL	Credentials
Grafana Dashboard	http://localhost:3000/d/insightlearn-dr/insightlearn-disaster-recovery	admin/admin
DR Metrics Endpoint	http://localhost:9101/metrics	-

🔄 Automatic Updates

Metrics Update Triggers

Every backup (hourly at :05)
- backup-cluster-state.sh → calls export-dr-metrics.sh
Every restore (at boot if crashed)
- restore-cluster-state.sh → calls export-dr-metrics.sh
On HTTP request (real-time)
- dr-metrics-server.py → executes export-dr-metrics.sh on /metrics call

Dashboard Auto-Refresh

Grafana dashboard auto-refresh: 30 seconds
Prometheus scrape interval: 60 seconds
Effective update frequency: 30-60 seconds

✅ Acceptance Criteria

Requirement	Status	Notes
Metriche Prometheus esposte	✅ PASS	13 metriche, HTTP port 9101
Grafana dashboard importato	✅ PASS	10 pannelli, auto-refresh 30s
Auto-update metriche	✅ PASS	Trigger backup/restore/HTTP
Systemd service running	✅ PASS	Enabled & active
