Lesson support
What to notice while you play.
Use commands and observable output to explain find a slow span without changing a real model or service.
Start with cat /opt/ai-lab/observability/metrics.txt. Then run aiops traces show find-a-slow-span before collecting the final evidence.
Find a slow span is an operator skill because AI behavior must be connected to versioned configuration, runtime state, and inspectable evidence.
- Skipping the baseline fixture before reasoning about find a slow span.
- Treating one simulated output as proof of root cause instead of one bounded piece of evidence.
Reference
Commands in this lesson.
