tail -f /tmp/training_alerts.log
```

---

## Alert Thresholds

### System Alerts
| Resource | Warning | Critical | Action |
|----------|---------|----------|--------|
| Memory | 75% | 90% | Logged to alert log |
| Swap | 4096MB | 6144MB | Logged to alert log |
| Disk | 70% | 85% | Logged to alert log |

### Process Alerts
- **Error Detection**: Scans last 100 lines of each log for:
  - `error`
  - `panic`
  - `killed`
  - `out of memory` / `oom`
  - `cuda error`
  - `segmentation fault`
- **Action**: Logs to `/tmp/training_alerts.log` with timestamp

---

## Configuration

### Modify Refresh Interval
Edit `/home/jgrusewski/Work/foxhunt/scripts/monitor_all_training.sh`:
```bash
REFRESH_INTERVAL=30  # Change to desired seconds
```

### Add New Training Process
Edit the `TRAINING_PROCESSES` array:
```bash
declare -A TRAINING_PROCESSES=(
    ["MODEL_NAME"]="log_file:expected_epochs:pid_file"
)
```

Example:
```bash
["NEW_MODEL"]="new_model_training.log:100:/tmp/new_model.pid"
```

### Change Alert Thresholds
Edit system resource check functions:
```bash
# Memory threshold (default: 90%)
if [ "$mem_percent" -gt 90 ] 2>/dev/null; then
    log_alert "CRITICAL" "SYSTEM" "Memory usage critical: ${mem_percent}%"
fi

# Disk threshold (default: 85%)
if [ "$disk_percent" -gt 85 ] 2>/dev/null; then
    log_alert "WARNING" "SYSTEM" "Disk usage high: ${disk_percent}%"
fi
```

---

## Status Files

### Dashboard Status
```bash
cat /tmp/training_dashboard_status.txt
```
**Content**: Current status of all processes (updated every refresh)

### PID Files
- `/tmp/tft_training.pid` - TFT process ID
- `/tmp/mamba2_training.pid` - MAMBA2 process ID
- `/tmp/liquid_training.pid` - Liquid process ID
- `/tmp/dqn_tuning.pid` - DQN tuning process ID
- `/tmp/ppo_tuning.pid` - PPO tuning process ID

### Alert Log
```bash
cat /tmp/training_alerts.log
```
**Format**: `[YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS] [LEVEL] [MODEL] Message`

---

## Troubleshooting

### Dashboard Not Showing Process
**Check PID file exists**:
```bash
ls -la /tmp/*.pid
```

**Check process is running**:
```bash
ps aux | grep -E "(train_|tune|optuna)"
```

**Verify log file exists**:
```bash
ls -la /home/jgrusewski/Work/foxhunt/*.log
ls -la /tmp/*.log
```

### Progress Not Updating
**Check log file is being written**:
```bash
tail -f <log_file>
```

**Verify log parsing patterns**:
- Training: `Epoch X/Y` or `loss: X.XXX`
- Tuning: `Trial X completed` or `Best value: X.XXX`

### GPU Metrics Showing 0%
**Check nvidia-smi availability**:
```bash
nvidia-smi
```

**Check CUDA processes**:
```bash
nvidia-smi pstat
```

### Alerts Not Logging
**Check alert log permissions**:
```bash
ls -la /tmp/training_alerts.log
```

**Manually trigger alert**:
```bash
echo "[$(date '+%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S')] [TEST] [MANUAL] Test alert" >> /tmp/training_alerts.log
```

---

## Integration with Other Scripts

### Use with System Resource Monitor
```bash
# Start resource monitoring in background
./scripts/system_resource_monitor.sh monitor &

# Start training dashboard
./scripts/monitor_all_training.sh monitor
```

### Use with Dashboard Monitor (Legacy)
```bash
# Compare outputs
./scripts/dashboard_monitor.sh       # Legacy tuning dashboard
./scripts/monitor_all_training.sh    # New unified dashboard
```

---

## Performance

### Resource Usage
- **CPU**: <1% (monitoring only)
- **Memory**: <50MB
- **Disk I/O**: Minimal (read-only log scanning)

### Scalability
- Supports up to 10 models (tested with 5)
- Refresh interval: 10-60 seconds (default: 30s)
- Log files: Scans last 100 lines for errors (fast)

---

## Known Limitations

1. **Pattern Matching**: Requires specific log patterns:
   - Training: `Epoch X` or `loss: X.XXX`
   - Tuning: `Trial X completed` or `Best value: X.XXX`

2. **Time Estimates**: Based on linear extrapolation (may be inaccurate early in training)

3. **GPU Metrics**: Requires `nvidia-smi` (NVIDIA GPUs only)

4. **Process Detection**: Relies on PID files (must be created by training scripts)

---

## Future Enhancements

### Planned Features
- [ ] Export to CSV/JSON for analysis
- [ ] Email/Slack notifications on critical alerts
- [ ] Historical progress tracking (time-series)
- [ ] Multi-GPU support with per-GPU metrics
- [ ] Web dashboard (REST API + HTML frontend)
- [ ] Prometheus metrics exporter
- [ ] Auto-restart on crash detection

### Contribution Guidelines
1. Test changes with at least 2 running processes
2. Preserve backward compatibility with existing PID/log files
3. Add new alert types to `/tmp/training_alerts.log`
4. Update this documentation with new features
