I don't imply that there is a solution.
We will simply create a second system (B) to monitor the first system (A). Now we have two systems to maintain. System B will not be capable of steering A by itself. So we still need to know how to diagnose and repair A, and we also need to know about B too. Maybe system B can talk to a Prometheus/Grafana stack (if it's up). And that can put alerts into Slack (which we ignore because there's always alerts in Slack). And after standup we can take turns looking at graphs with consternation.
> Stuff like this will happen more and more. We treat software driven systems rather recklessly.
That sentence is where I go when I hear the word 'automation'.
