# Requests Error Budget Alert {#blocks-monitoring-budget-alerts}
This alert will fire when the ratio between number of requests getting a 5XX response from a service
and the total requests to that service exceeds 1%.

# Configuration {#blocks-monitoring-configuration}
```nix
shb.monitoring = {
enable = true;
subdomain = "grafana";
inherit domain;
contactPoints = [ "me@example.com" ];
adminPasswordFile = config.sops.secrets."monitoring/admin_password".path;
secretKeyFile = config.sops.secrets."monitoring/secret_key".path;
};
sops.secrets."monitoring/admin_password" = {
sopsFile = ./secrets.yaml;
mode = "0400";
owner = "grafana";
group = "grafana";
restartUnits = [ "grafana.service" ];
};
sops.secrets."monitoring/secret_key" = {
sopsFile = ./secrets.yaml;
mode = "0400";
owner = "grafana";
group = "grafana";
restartUnits = [ "grafana.service" ];
};
```
With that, Grafana, Prometheus, Loki and Promtail are setup! You can access `Grafana` at
`grafana.example.com` with user `admin` and password ``.
I recommend adding a STMP server configuration so you receive alerts by email:
```nix
shb.monitoring.smtp = {
from_address = "grafana@$example.com";
from_name = "Grafana";
host = "smtp.mailgun.org";
port = 587;
username = "postmaster@mg.example.com";
passwordFile = config.sops.secrets."monitoring/smtp".path;
};
sops.secrets."monitoring/secret_key" = {
sopsFile = ./secrets.yaml;
mode = "0400";
owner = "grafana";
group = "grafana";
restartUnits = [ "grafana.service" ];
};
```
Since all logs are now stored in Loki, you can probably reduce the systemd journal retention
time with:
```nix
# See https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/journald.conf.html#SystemMaxUse=
services.journald.extraConfig = ''
SystemMaxUse=2G
SystemKeepFree=4G
SystemMaxFileSize=100M
MaxFileSec=day
'';

## Provisioning {#blocks-monitoring-provisioning}
Self Host Blocks will create automatically the following resources:
- For Grafana:
- datasources
- dashboards
- contact points
- notification policies
- alerts
- For Prometheus, the following exporters and related scrapers:
- node
- smartctl
- nginx
- For Loki, the following exporters and related scrapers:
- systemd
Those resources are namespaced as appropriate under the Self Host Blocks namespace:
