Per-minion schemas cause table count to explode (N minions * M metrics)
and the per-minion revocation story isn't worth it when retention is
short. Move all minions to a shared 'telegraf' schema while keeping
per-minion login credentials for audit.
- New so_telegraf NOLOGIN group role owns the telegraf schema; each
per-minion role is a member and inherits insert/select via role
inheritance
- Telegraf connection string uses options='-c role=so_telegraf' so
tables auto-created on first write belong to the group role
- so-telegraf-trim walks the flat telegraf.* table set instead of
per-minion schemas
- so-stats-show filters by host tag; CLI arg is now the hostname as
tagged by Telegraf rather than a sanitized schema suffix
- Also renames so-show-stats -> so-stats-show
Introduces global.telegraf_output (INFLUXDB|POSTGRES|BOTH, default BOTH)
so Telegraf can write metrics to Postgres alongside or instead of
InfluxDB. Each minion authenticates with its own so_telegraf_<minion>
role and writes to a matching schema inside a shared so_telegraf
database, keeping blast radius per-credential to that minion's data.
- Per-minion credentials auto-generated and persisted in postgres/auth.sls
- postgres/telegraf_users.sls reconciles roles/schemas on every apply
- Firewall opens 5432 only to minion hostgroups when Postgres output is active
- Reactor on salt/auth + orch/telegraf_postgres_sync.sls provision new
minions automatically on key accept
- soup post_to_3.1.0 backfills users for existing minions on upgrade
- so-show-stats prints latest CPU/mem/disk/load per minion for sanity checks
- so-telegraf-trim + nightly cron prune rows older than
postgres.telegraf.retention_days (default 14)
Add ulimits as a configurable advanced setting for every container,
allowing customization through the web UI. Move hardcoded ulimits
from elasticsearch and zeek into defaults.yaml and fix elasticsearch
ulimits that were incorrectly nested under the environment key.
