A home lab owner configured self-healing capabilities using Prometheus, Grafana, and a free monitoring stack. The setup maps, monitors, and automatically recovers from common failures without human intervention. Proxmox backups and snapshots bolster the resilience. The entire configuration took only a few hours.
