Fixes random host disconnections caused by blocking operations preventing timely ZMQ packet transmission.
Changes:
- Add run_command_with_timeout() wrapper using tokio for async command execution
- Apply 10s timeout to smartctl (prevents 30+ second hangs on failing drives)
- Apply 5s timeout to du, lsblk, systemctl list commands
- Apply 3s timeout to systemctl show/is-active, df, ip commands
- Apply 2s timeout to hostname command
- Use system 'timeout' command for sync operations where async not needed
Critical fixes:
- smartctl: Failing drives could block for 30+ seconds per drive
- du: Large directories (Docker, PostgreSQL) could block 10-30+ seconds
- systemctl/docker: Commands could block indefinitely during system issues
With 1-second collection interval and 10-second heartbeat timeout, any blocking operation >10s causes false "host offline" alerts. These timeouts ensure collection completes quickly even during system degradation.
Fully restored CM Dashboard as a complete monitoring system with working
status evaluation and email notifications.
COMPLETED PHASES:
✅ Phase 1: Fixed storage display issues
- Use lsblk instead of findmnt (eliminates /nix/store bind mount)
- Fixed NVMe SMART parsing (Temperature: and Percentage Used:)
- Added sudo to smartctl for permissions
- Consistent filesystem and tmpfs sorting
✅ Phase 2a: Fixed missing NixOS build information
- Added build_version field to AgentData
- NixOS collector now populates build info
- Dashboard shows actual build instead of "unknown"
✅ Phase 2b: Restored status evaluation system
- Added status fields to all structured data types
- CPU: load and temperature status evaluation
- Memory: usage status evaluation
- Storage: temperature, health, and filesystem usage status
- All collectors now use their threshold configurations
✅ Phase 3: Restored notification system
- Status change detection between collection cycles
- Email alerts on status degradation (OK→Warning/Critical)
- Detailed notification content with metric values
- Full NotificationManager integration
CORE FUNCTIONALITY RESTORED:
- Real-time monitoring with proper status evaluation
- Email notifications on threshold violations
- Correct storage display (nvme0n1 T: 28°C W: 1%)
- Complete status-aware infrastructure monitoring
- Dashboard is now a monitoring system, not just data viewer
The CM Dashboard monitoring system is fully operational.
- Sort filesystems by mount point in disk collector for consistent display
- Sort tmpfs mounts by mount point in memory collector
- Eliminates random swapping of / and /boot order between refreshes
- Eliminates random swapping of tmpfs mount order in RAM section
Ensures predictable, alphabetical ordering for all mount points.
Implements clean structured data collection eliminating all string metric
parsing bugs. Collectors now populate AgentData directly with type-safe
field access.
Key improvements:
- Mount points preserved correctly (/ and /boot instead of root/boot)
- Tmpfs discovery added to memory collector
- Temperature data flows as typed f32 fields
- Zero string parsing overhead
- Complete removal of MetricCollectionManager bridge
- Direct ZMQ transmission of structured JSON
All functionality maintained: service tracking, notifications, status
evaluation, and multi-host monitoring.
- Fix /tmp usage status to use proper thresholds instead of hardcoded Ok status
- Fix wear level status to use configurable thresholds instead of hardcoded values
- Add dedicated tmp_status field to SystemWidget for proper /tmp status display
- Remove host-level hourglass icon during service operations
- Implement immediate service status updates after start/stop/restart commands
- Remove active users display and collection from NixOS section
- Fix immediate host status aggregation transmission to dashboard
- Remove /tmp autodetection from disk collector (57 lines removed)
- Add tmpfs monitoring to memory collector with get_tmpfs_metrics() method
- Generate memory_tmp_* metrics for proper RAM-based tmpfs monitoring
- Fix type annotations in tmpfs parsing for compilation
- System widget now correctly displays tmpfs usage in RAM section
Add comprehensive hysteresis support to prevent status oscillation near
threshold boundaries while maintaining responsive alerting.
Key Features:
- HysteresisThresholds with configurable upper/lower limits
- StatusTracker for per-metric status history
- Default gaps: CPU load 10%, memory 5%, disk temp 5°C
Updated Components:
- CPU load collector (5-minute average with hysteresis)
- Memory usage collector (percentage-based thresholds)
- Disk temperature collector (SMART data monitoring)
- All collectors updated to support StatusTracker interface
Cache Interval Adjustments:
- Service status: 60s → 10s (faster response)
- Disk usage: 300s → 60s (more frequent checks)
- Backup status: 900s → 60s (quicker updates)
- SMART data: moved to 600s tier (10 minutes)
Architecture:
- Individual metric status calculation in collectors
- Centralized StatusTracker in MetricCollectionManager
- Status aggregation preserved in dashboard widgets
This commit addresses several key issues identified during development:
Major Changes:
- Replace hardcoded top CPU/RAM process display with real system data
- Add intelligent process monitoring to CpuCollector using ps command
- Fix disk metrics permission issues in systemd collector
- Optimize service collection to focus on status, memory, and disk only
- Update dashboard widgets to display live process information
Process Monitoring Implementation:
- Added collect_top_cpu_process() and collect_top_ram_process() methods
- Implemented ps-based monitoring with accurate CPU percentages
- Added filtering to prevent self-monitoring artifacts (ps commands)
- Enhanced error handling and validation for process data
- Dashboard now shows realistic values like "claude (PID 2974) 11.0%"
Service Collection Optimization:
- Removed CPU monitoring from systemd collector for efficiency
- Enhanced service directory permission error logging
- Simplified services widget to show essential metrics only
- Fixed service-to-directory mapping accuracy
UI and Dashboard Improvements:
- Reorganized dashboard layout with btop-inspired multi-panel design
- Updated system panel to include real top CPU/RAM process display
- Enhanced widget formatting and data presentation
- Removed placeholder/hardcoded data throughout the interface
Technical Details:
- Updated agent/src/collectors/cpu.rs with process monitoring
- Modified dashboard/src/ui/mod.rs for real-time process display
- Enhanced systemd collector error handling and disk metrics
- Updated CLAUDE.md documentation with implementation details
