For the same reason Alertmanager supports environmentFile to pass
secrets along, it is useful to support the same for Prometheus'
configuration to store bearer tokens outside the Nix store.
These were broken since 2016:
f0367da7d1
since StartLimitIntervalSec got moved into [Unit] from [Service].
StartLimitBurst has also been moved accordingly, so let's fix that one
too.
NixOS systems have been producing logs such as:
/nix/store/wf98r55aszi1bkmln1lvdbp7znsfr70i-unit-caddy.service/caddy.service:31:
Unknown key name 'StartLimitIntervalSec' in section 'Service', ignoring.
I have also removed some unnecessary duplication in units disabling
rate limiting since setting either interval or burst to zero disables it
(ad16158c10/src/basic/ratelimit.c (L16))
Turns out, `dd_url` should only be used in proxy scenarios, not to point
datadog to their EU endpoint - `site` should be used for that.
The `dd_url` setting doesn't affect APM, Logs or Live Process intake
which have their own "*_dd_url" settings.
The format of the listenAddress option was recently changed to separate
the address and the port parts. There is now a legacy check that
tells users to update to the new format. This legacy check produces
a false positive on IPv6 addresses, since they contain colons.
Fix the regex to make it not match colons within IPv6 addresses.
This makes the notification script use the subject generated by smartmontools
itself both for consistency with other distros and to include the hostname.
systemd.exec(5) on DynamicUser:
> If a statically allocated user or group of the configured name
> already exists, it is used and no dynamic user/group is allocated.
Using DynamicUser while still setting a group name can be
useful for granting access to resources that can otherwise only be
accessed with entirely static IDs.
The postfix exporter needs to access postfix's `queue/public/` directory
to read the `showq` socket inside. Instead of making the public
directory world accessible, this sets the postfix exporter's group to
`postdrop` by default, when the postfix service is enabled.
Accessing the configured port of a service is quite useful, for example
when configuring virtual hosts for a service. The prometheus module did
not expose the configured por separately, making it unnecessarily
cumbersome to consume.
This is a breaking change only if you were setting `listenAddress` to
a non-standard value. If you were, you should now set `listenAddress`
and `port` separately.
