@Aklapper Ah sorry, I misunderstood -- that was done but you're absolutely right, there was confusion over which account to use. We've fixed it now, thanks again for mentioning, and I'll improve the wording for next time.

If you don't mind me triaging this ticket/moving it in the column, so clinic duty can identify more easily other SRE unattended tasks 0:-) Onboarding a workmate looks to me like an important thing to do, so setting it like that :-D.

@Dzahn @RLazarus Maybe this task can be closed now? Any pending subtasks?

There is nothing specifically pending from my side. We have recently chatted about Phabricator dashboards, I can see Icinga is done. We have done pwstore and had other onboarding chats.
