Match the panel height the operator settled on in Grafana (18 rows) so
all 20 ranked bars render without an inner scrollbar, and reflow the
Sync Diagnostics row and the panels below it accordingly.
The bar labels on 'Overlay Traffic Heatmap (All Categories, Bytes In)'
were raw metric names carrying a redundant '_bytes_in' suffix, and the
half-width 8-row panel truncated both the category and the node
identity.
- Strip the '_bytes_in' suffix from the derived series label; the panel
title already states the metric is inbound bytes.
- Widen the panel to full width and grow it to 12 rows so 20 bars render
with their full category and node labels.
- Shift the Sync Diagnostics row and the panels below it down by 4 to
keep the layout gap-free.
- Note the label derivation in the panel description.
The panel plotted only Full and Tracking, so the states a node actually
passes through while catching up were invisible. On the dev box's cold
sync the node spent ~19 minutes in Connected and ~3 seconds in Syncing,
while Tracking totalled 2 microseconds -- the one non-Full line the
panel did draw was the least informative of the five.
Add Syncing, Connected and Disconnected series (state-ladder order,
matching the Operating Mode Transitions panel) and rename the panel to
"State Duration Rate (All States)". Because the node is always in
exactly one state, the five rates sum to ~1.0, so the panel now reads as
"which state is time going into right now", and a handover between two
lines marks a state change with its width showing the dwell time.
Description expanded to the full section set (keywords, computation
boundary, references) used by the other panels on this dashboard.
Verified live: rate(state_accounting_connected_duration)/1e6 reaches
1.0 then 0.387 across the catch-up window and syncing reaches 0.0103 --
both previously undrawable.
The dashboard showed 54 individual signals but no single answer to
"is this node healthy and doing its job?". A reader had to correlate
server state, ledger age and peer counts by eye.
Add a stat panel at the top that reduces the two conditions that define
a healthy observer node to one green/red verdict:
server_state == 4 (Full) AND validated_ledger_age < 30s
Both terms use `== bool` so each yields 0/1, joined with
`* on(service_instance_id)` so the verdict is per node. Value mappings
render 1 as "Healthy" (green) and 0 as "Not Healthy" (red) with
background colouring, so the state is readable at a glance.
Placed at y=0 per the dashboard convention that gauges/stats lead;
existing panels shift down by 4 rows with no other change.
Verified live against Grafana Cloud: returns 1 for aws-dev-xrpl-1
(Full, validated seq 105,824,596).
The four aggregated Sync Diagnostics panels grouped by xrpl_work_item,
which no layer in this repo emits (it is injected by the perf-iac
harness). That tripped Rule D of the telemetry naming check:
D ledger-data-sync.json xrpl_work_item
must exist in L1, a metric label, or be a builtin
Align with the convention used by every other aggregated panel in the
dashboard set: group by (service_instance_id, xrpl_branch,
xrpl_node_role) and leave the xrpl_ident label_join untouched. The
legend is unaffected -- label_join over a label dropped by the
aggregation contributes an empty segment, which the trailing
label_replace already strips.
Verified live: both the NuDB ratio and the job-queue p95 queries still
return per-node series rendering as "[aws-dev-xrpl-1]".
The 0-4 values now render as named states via value mappings, so the numeric
axis label is misleading. Rename to "Server State".

Add value mappings (0 Disconnected, 1 Connected, 2 Syncing, 3 Tracking,
4 Full) and matching red->green thresholds to the Sync State panel, so the
line, tooltip, and legend render state names and colors instead of bare 0-4.
Keeps the minimal custom-key convention; only the Sync State panel changes.

Rework the 10 Sync Diagnostics panels' legends to match the format used by the
existing panels: wrap each query in label_join + label_replace to build the
xrpl_ident label ([service_instance_id, xrpl_branch, xrpl_work_item] with empty
values stripped) and set displayName to "${series} ${xrpl_ident}". Verified
against a live node: renders as "Series [aws-dev-xrpl-1]" with no empty-label
gaps, identical mechanism to the original 15 panels. Only the new panels change.

Add a 10-panel "Sync Diagnostics" row that shows ledger-sync slowdown and its
causes, laid out top-to-bottom as symptom -> latency -> root cause:
- Red flags: Sync State, Validated Ledger Age, Ledger Close Rate
- Latency: Job Queue Wait p95 by type, NuDB Read Latency, I/O Scheduler p95
- Root cause: NuDB Cache Hit Ratio, NuDB Read Pressure, Job Queue Depth,
Load Factor & Peers
All panels use native beast::insight metrics introduced on this branch
(nodestore_state, ledgermaster_*, jobq_*_q, ios_latency, load_factor_metrics,
peer_finder_*) plus the consensus.mode_change span metric. Queries filter by
the dashboard's $node and tier variables and were verified against a live
node. Nodestore ratio panels use sum-by(identity) matching to bridge the
metric= sub-label.
Format matches the dashboard convention: minimal custom keys, ${DS_PROMETHEUS}
datasource uid, and the standard What/How/Reading/Healthy/Watch/Source/Function
description structure. Pure-append; existing panels untouched.

Group the node + perf-iac identity labels inside one pair of brackets in the
legend Display name so a series reads e.g. "Queue Depth [validator-0
test:pr:abc123 validator RIPD-7455]" on a perf node and "Queue Depth
[aws-dev-xrpl-1]" on a plain node. Absent perf-iac labels collapse to a single
space before the closing bracket; no empty "[]", no data impact. Covers the
eleven dashboards this branch owns.

Group the node + perf-iac identity labels inside one pair of brackets in the
legend Display name:
${__field.labels.series} [${__field.labels.service_instance_id} ${__field.labels.xrpl_branch} ${__field.labels.xrpl_node_role} ${__field.labels.xrpl_work_item}]
so a series reads e.g. "Queue Depth [validator-0 test:pr:abc123 validator
RIPD-7455]" on a perf node and "Queue Depth [aws-dev-xrpl-1]" on a plain node.
Absent perf-iac labels render empty and collapse to a single space before the
closing bracket (HTML/SVG whitespace collapse) — the only cosmetic artifact on
non-perf nodes; no empty "[]" and no data impact. Verified on a live local
Grafana render.

The collector-built resource_group / iac_group labels did not survive the
dashboards' own PromQL aggregation: panels that sum by(service_instance_id,
xrpl_branch, xrpl_node_role, ...) drop any label not in the by() clause, so the
derived group labels were aggregated away and the Display name rendered empty.
Switch the legend Display name to the raw labels the panels already group by,
which are always present by construction:
${__field.labels.series} ${__field.labels.service_instance_id}
${__field.labels.xrpl_branch} ${__field.labels.xrpl_node_role}
${__field.labels.xrpl_work_item}
Absent labels render empty (no brackets, no gaps). Covers the eleven dashboards
this branch owns. The matching collector-config revert lands on the branches
that introduced those configs (phase-7 local, phase-10 cloud/alloy).

The collector-built resource_group / iac_group labels did not survive the
dashboards' own PromQL aggregation: panels that sum by(service_instance_id,
xrpl_branch, xrpl_node_role, ...) drop any label not named in the by() clause,
so the derived group labels were aggregated away and the Display name rendered
empty ("Observing" with no node). Building them in the collector also coupled
every dashboard to a lockstep collector redeploy on every node.
Switch the legend Display name to reference the raw labels the panels already
group by, which are always present by construction and need no collector
support:
${__field.labels.series} ${__field.labels.service_instance_id}
${__field.labels.xrpl_branch} ${__field.labels.xrpl_node_role}
${__field.labels.xrpl_work_item}
${__field.labels.X} renders empty for a label a series lacks (verified in
Grafana), so dev/mainnet nodes show just "<name> <node>" and perf nodes add the
branch/role/work-item, with no empty brackets and no double spaces. Verified
live across timeseries, stat, bargauge, piechart, gauge and cross-node
aggregation panels.
Revert the transform/legendgroups processor from the local collector config;
this file is now identical to its pre-change state.

The Display name templated the brackets: "${series} [${resource_group}]
[${iac_group}]". When a group label was absent the "${}" rendered empty,
leaving a literal "[]" in the legend, and the cleanup renameByRegex could not
remove it (Grafana runs that transform on the pre-interpolation template, which
has no "[]" -- it only appears after interpolation at render time).
Bake the brackets and comma separators into the group-label VALUES in the
collector instead (resource_group="[node, mainnet]",
iac_group="[branch, role, work-item]"), so the Display name is bracket-free
("${series} ${resource_group} ${iac_group}") and an absent group renders as
nothing. Separator changes from "-" to ", ". Drop the dead cleanup transform.
Covers this branch's local collector config and its three dashboards
(ledger-data-sync, network-traffic, overlay-traffic-detail).

The Display name templated the brackets: "${series} [${resource_group}]
[${iac_group}]". When a group label was absent (e.g. iac_group on a non-perf
node) the "${}" rendered empty, leaving a literal "[]" in the legend. The
empty-bracket cleanup renameByRegex could not remove it: Grafana runs that
transform on the pre-interpolation Display name template, which contains no
"[]" -- the "[]" only appears after variable interpolation, at render time.
Fix it at the source: the collector now bakes the brackets and comma separators
into the group-label VALUES (e.g. resource_group="[node, mainnet]",
iac_group="[branch, role, work-item]"). The Display name becomes bracket-free --
"${series} ${resource_group} ${iac_group}" -- so an absent group is simply an
absent label and renders as nothing. Also switches the intra-group separator
from "-" to ", " (e.g. "[node, mainnet]"). Drop the now-dead cleanup transform
from every panel; value-mapping renameByRegex rules are preserved.
Collector-side label building lives in the paired commits on the collector
config branches. This commit is the dashboard half for the eleven dashboards
this branch owns.

Panels that group by a distinguishing dimension (consensus_mode, tx_type,
command, method, stage, ...) already fold that dimension's value into the
curated series name via label_replace(..., "series", "<prefix> $1", "<dim>",
"(.*)"). The migration also added a separate [${__field.labels.<dim>}] bracket,
so those legends rendered the value twice, e.g. "proposing [proposing] [...]"
on Consensus Mode Over Time.
Remove the dimension bracket from all 29 affected panel Display names, leaving
${__field.labels.series} [resource_group] [iac_group]; the series name already
conveys the dimension. The migration script no longer emits the bracket either.

Eighteen timeseries panels in consensus-health and transaction-overview
carried tooltip maxHeight 500; the dashboard guideline specifies 600. Normalize
them so every panel's tooltip matches Mode:All / Sort:Desc / Max Height:600.

The "Overlay Traffic by Category (Bytes In)" bargauge names each bar by
category via 22 byName field-override displayNames (Transactions, Proposals,
...). The legend migration had also added a generic
${__field.labels.series} [...] Display name, which competed with those
curated names. Remove the generic Display name (and its now-unneeded
empty-bracket cleanup transform) from this panel so the category names stand;
this panel's identity is the traffic category, not the node/perf-iac grouping.

The transform/legendgroups guards checked only != nil. The perf-iac collector
stamps xrpl.branch / xrpl.node.role / xrpl.work.item with an empty-string
default (work_item | default('')) when a run has no work item, and an empty
string is not nil. OTTL Concat renders a stray separator for an empty element,
so an all-empty perf-iac stamp would have produced iac_group="--".
Add != "" to every presence guard (iac_group sources, service.instance.id,
xrpl.network.type) so a group is built only from genuinely-present values and
left unset otherwise. Verified on a live collector: empty-string perf-iac attrs
leave iac_group absent.

Apply the collector-built grouped-label legend approach (introduced on
phase-7) to the eleven dashboards this branch and its ancestors own:
consensus-health, fee-market, job-queue, ledger-operations, node-health,
peer-network, peer-quality, rpc-pathfinding, rpc-performance,
transaction-overview, validator-health.
Per legend panel: drop the 11-rule renameByRegex chain and legendFormat
"__auto"; set a Standard-option Display name referencing the pre-built
resource_group / iac_group labels plus, when the panel groups by a
distinguishing dimension (e.g. command, tx_type, consensus_mode, stage,
method), that dimension as a leading bracket; keep a single generic
empty-bracket cleanup rule; set tooltip maxHeight to 600.
Value-mapping renameByRegex rules (e.g. consensus close-time
increased->Coarser) are preserved. Only labels a panel groups by appear in
its legend; filter-only selectors ($command with no by(command)) narrow data
but do not become legend groups. All 14 dashboards validate; no legend
renameByRegex chain remains.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
The per-panel legend used legendFormat "__auto" reshaped by an 11-rule
renameByRegex chain. __auto sorts labels alphabetically and cannot group,
so the chain existed only to bolt grouping onto its output -- unmaintainable
and non-compliant with the dashboard legend guideline.
Build the grouped labels once at ingestion instead. A new transform/legendgroups
processor derives two resource attributes, promoted to Prometheus labels by
resource_to_telemetry_conversion:
- resource_group: service_instance_id[-xrpl_network_type]
- iac_group: xrpl_branch-xrpl_node_role-xrpl_work_item (perf runs only)
Each is left unset when its sources are absent, so Prometheus drops the empty
label and the legend shows nothing for it. Concat is presence-guarded because
OTTL Concat renders "<nil>" for an absent attribute.
Dashboards now use a Standard-option Display name that references the pre-built
labels (${__field.labels.series} [resource_group] [iac_group]); ${__field.labels.X}
renders empty for a missing label, so absent groups vanish. A single generic
renameByRegex strips the resulting empty "[]" bracket. legendFormat is dropped
(Display name supersedes it). Tooltip maxHeight set to 600 per guideline.
Applied here to the three dashboards this branch introduced (ledger-data-sync,
network-traffic, overlay-traffic-detail); value-mapping renameByRegex rules are
preserved. Verified end-to-end on a live local stack (collector -> Prometheus ->
Grafana): perf and dev nodes render correct, clutter-free legends.

Panel legends only showed the node (service_instance_id); the perf-iac
filter dimensions (xrpl_branch, xrpl_node_role) never appeared, so
baseline-vs-test series were indistinguishable.
Each node-referencing target injects its curated name via
label_replace(...,"series",...) and uses the "__auto" legend, which shows
only labels that vary across the displayed series. A word-boundary-anchored
renameByRegex chain reshapes the auto output into
"Name [node, role]-[branch, work_item]", collapsing empty groups so a
dimension appears only when the filter widens it. Aggregating queries gain
xrpl_branch/xrpl_node_role in their by() so those labels survive; multi-
dimension legends keep their rich label set and append branch/role.
Quantile panels surface the quantile via the panel title (q$quantile),
since {{quantile}} is a dashboard variable, not a series label.
Timeseries panels connect only null gaps shorter than 30m
(spanNulls=1800000): brief scrape gaps bridge, genuine outages stay broken.
Non-node panels (heatmaps, rows, tables, state timelines, category/bucket
series) are left unchanged. Applied to all 14 dashboards.
