Quick Start

Automated Deployment (Recommended)

Deploy everything with a single command using a config file:

# Install from dev branch (latest features)
pip install git+https://github.com/cryptolabsza/cryptolabs-proxy.git@dev --break-system-packages
pip install git+https://github.com/cryptolabsza/dc-overview.git@dev --break-system-packages

# Deploy with config file (no prompts)
sudo dc-overview quickstart -c /path/to/config.yaml -y

Or install from PyPI (stable):

pipx install dc-overview
sudo dc-overview quickstart -c config.yaml -y

Interactive Setup

For first-time users or when you don't have a config file:

sudo dc-overview quickstart

The Fleet Wizard guides you through:

1. Site Name - Customize your datacenter branding (e.g., "CryptoLabs", "AmericanColo")
2. Components - DC Overview, IPMI Monitor, Vast.ai exporter, RunPod exporter
3. Credentials - Fleet admin, Grafana, SSH, BMC/IPMI
4. Servers - Import from IPMI Monitor or enter manually
5. SSL - Let's Encrypt or self-signed

Then deploys everything automatically without further prompts.

Note: This automatically deploys cryptolabs-proxy as the unified entry point and authentication layer for all services.

---

Configuration File

Create a YAML config for automated deployments. See test-config.yaml for a complete example.

# fleet-config.yaml
site_name: My Datacenter

# Fleet Management Login (unified auth via cryptolabs-proxy)
fleet_admin_user: admin
fleet_admin_pass: YOUR_ADMIN_PASSWORD

# SSH Access (for all servers)
ssh:
  username: root
  key_path: ~/.ssh/id_rsa
  port: 22

# BMC/IPMI Access (default for all servers)
bmc:
  username: admin
  password: YOUR_BMC_PASSWORD

# SSL Configuration
ssl:
  mode: letsencrypt  # Options: letsencrypt, selfsigned
  domain: dc.example.com
  email: [e-mail]

# Components to install
components:
  dc_overview: true
  ipmi_monitor: true
  vast_exporter: false    # Set to true if using Vast.ai
  runpod_exporter: false  # Set to true if using RunPod

# Vast.ai API Keys (only needed if vast_exporter is true)
# Supports multiple accounts with labels
vast:
  api_keys:
    - name: VastMain
      key: YOUR_VAST_API_KEY
    - name: VastSecondary
      key: YOUR_SECOND_VAST_API_KEY
  # Legacy single key format also supported:
  # api_key: YOUR_VAST_API_KEY

# RunPod API Keys (only needed if runpod_exporter is true)
# Supports multiple accounts with labels
runpod:
  api_keys:
    - name: RunpodCCC
      key: YOUR_RUNPOD_API_KEY
    - name: Brickbox
      key: YOUR_SECOND_RUNPOD_API_KEY

# Servers to monitor
servers:
  - name: gpu-01
    server_ip: 192.168.1.101
    bmc_ip: 192.168.1.201

  - name: gpu-02
    server_ip: 192.168.1.102
    bmc_ip: 192.168.1.202

# Grafana settings
grafana:
  admin_password: YOUR_GRAFANA_PASSWORD
  # Home dashboard: dc-overview-main, vast-dashboard, node-exporter-full, or null
  home_dashboard: dc-overview-main

# IPMI Monitor settings (if ipmi_monitor is enabled)
ipmi_monitor:
  admin_password: YOUR_IPMI_MONITOR_PASSWORD

Deploy with:

sudo dc-overview quickstart -c fleet-config.yaml -y

Security Note: Never commit config files with real credentials. Use placeholder values in examples and store actual credentials securely.

User Permissions & Authentication

Fleet Authentication

All services authenticate through cryptolabs-proxy with unified credentials:

Role	DC Overview	Grafana	IPMI Monitor
admin	Full access	Admin	Full access
readwrite	Edit servers	Editor	Edit servers
readonly	View only	Viewer	View only

How It Works

1. User logs into Fleet Management landing page (https://domain/)
2. Proxy sets authentication headers on all requests:
   • X-Fleet-Authenticated: true
   • X-Fleet-Auth-User: <username>
   • X-Fleet-Auth-Role: <admin|readwrite|readonly>
3. Sub-services read headers and auto-authenticate users

Grafana Role Sync

Grafana roles are synced via API endpoint:

# Sync current user's Fleet role to Grafana
curl -X POST https://domain/dc/api/grafana/sync-role \
  -H "X-Fleet-Auth-User: admin" \
  -H "X-Fleet-Auth-Role: admin"

Development Workflow

GitHub Actions

The repository uses GitHub Actions for CI/CD:

Workflow	Trigger	Output
docker-build.yml	Push to main, dev, tags	ghcr.io/cryptolabsza/dc-overview:dev
publish.yml	GitHub Release	PyPI package

Dev Branch Images

Push to dev branch automatically builds Docker images:

• ghcr.io/cryptolabsza/dc-overview:dev
• ghcr.io/cryptolabsza/dc-overview:develop
• ghcr.io/cryptolabsza/dc-overview:sha-<commit>

Testing Dev Builds

# Install from dev branch (cryptolabs-proxy first for SSL management)
pip install git+https://github.com/cryptolabsza/cryptolabs-proxy.git@dev --break-system-packages
pip install git+https://github.com/cryptolabsza/dc-overview.git@dev --break-system-packages

# Run quickstart
dc-overview quickstart -c /path/to/test-config.yaml -y

---

Deployment Flow

The quickstart command executes these steps:

1. Prerequisites - Install Docker, nginx, ipmitool, certbot
2. SSH Keys - Generate fleet key and deploy to workers
3. Core Services - Start Prometheus & Grafana containers
4. Exporters - Install node_exporter and dc-exporter on workers via SSH
5. Prometheus Config - Configure scrape targets
6. Dashboards - Import Grafana dashboards
7. IPMI Monitor - Deploy if enabled (with automatic Vast.ai/RunPod log collection)
8. Vast.ai Exporter - Deploy if enabled
9. RunPod Exporter - Deploy if enabled (supports multiple API keys)
10. Reverse Proxy - Configure cryptolabs-proxy with SSL and site branding

Integration with IPMI Monitor

DC Overview and IPMI Monitor share infrastructure:

# If IPMI Monitor is already installed, quickstart detects it:
✓ IPMI Monitor Detected!
✓ CryptoLabs Proxy Already Running!
✓ Imported 12 servers from IPMI Monitor
✓ Imported SSH keys from IPMI Monitor

Shared components:

• cryptolabs-proxy - Unified authentication
• cryptolabs Docker network - Service communication
• Server list - Imported automatically
• SSH keys - Shared between services
• Watchtower - Auto-updates for all containers

---

Grafana Dashboards

Pre-installed dashboards (auto-scaled to fit your fleet size):

Dashboard	Description
DC Overview	Fleet overview with all GPU metrics
DC Exporter Details	Detailed GPU metrics (VRAM temp, hotspot, power, PCIe errors)
Node Exporter Full	CPU, RAM, disk, network
NVIDIA DCGM Exporter	GPU performance metrics
Vast Dashboard	Vast.ai provider earnings & machine status
RunPod Dashboard	RunPod earnings, GPU utilization & reliability
IPMI Monitor	BMC/IPMI sensor data

Note: Dashboard table panels automatically scale based on your server count to ensure all machines are visible without scrolling.

---

Manual Worker Setup

If automatic SSH deployment fails:

# On each GPU worker
pip install dc-overview
sudo dc-overview install-exporters

Or install exporters individually:

# Node Exporter
wget https://github.com/prometheus/node_exporter/releases/download/v1.7.0/node_exporter-1.7.0.linux-amd64.tar.gz
tar xzf node_exporter-*.tar.gz
sudo cp node_exporter-*/node_exporter /usr/local/bin/
sudo systemctl enable --now node_exporter

# DC Exporter (GPU metrics)
curl -L https://github.com/cryptolabsza/dc-exporter-releases/releases/latest/download/dc-exporter-rs -o /usr/local/bin/dc-exporter-rs
chmod +x /usr/local/bin/dc-exporter-rs
sudo systemctl enable --now dc-exporter

---
