Traefik never requests a certificate for a name it already holds one
for, so the XMPP certificate came out without asxp.io, the XMPP domain
itself. ejabberd picks the matching certificate file per domain, so push
two: the site's asxp.io certificate and xmpp.asxp.io + conference.
The receiver takes the name from the SSH command (asxp.io or a
subdomain), checks the certificate matches it, and retires the
hand-made server.pem once both files are in place.
A second probe on 5223 sends SNI asxp.io, as clients do, and the
outdated-certificate alert compares each served certificate with its
source in acme.json.

blackbox_exporter matches query_response line by line, and ejabberd
writes its stream features and <proceed/> without newlines, so the
STARTTLS dialogue always timed out and the probe alert fired while
XMPP was fine. Port 5222 gets a TCP connect; the certificate is still
checked through direct TLS on 5223.

Nothing watched the servers: tonight's asxpio crash loop was found by
hand. On asxpio-ops, Prometheus (30 days), Loki (14 days) and Grafana
at gf.asxp.io (WireGuard only), with blackbox_exporter probing every
service from outside and postgres_exporter. On both hosts node_exporter
and cAdvisor on the VPC address, and Alloy shipping container logs, the
journal and Traefik's access log to Loki over the VPC.
Traefik and Forgejo expose their metrics; restic and the bucket replica
record their last success for node_exporter. Dashboards: an overview as
home, plus hosts, containers, Traefik, probes, Postgres and logs.
Alerts by email to me@asxp.io: host or service down, certificate under
14 days, disk or memory nearly full, a container restart-looping,
Postgres down, backup or replica stale.
