Monitoring and Logging

This section covers how to monitor the behaviour and performance of your validator once deployed.

Monitoring

The validator ships with an instance of Prometheus for metrics and Grafana for observability.

Grafana ships with a default dashboard called the "General" dashboard which displays the most common metrics for validator operation, from latency to error rates.

The relevant ports can be found in the Docker Compose manifest.

Logging

Logging is currently handled implicitly by Docker as it absorbs the process stdout from the proxy and shard processes.

To view the logs for a given container run:

docker compose logs <service-name>
