The purpose of this document is to provide consideration to security, operational and support tasks and conditions of a production-ready / mission-critical Vault deployment.
This is a living document, please feel free to suggest changes and have someone take a review and approve. You might also want to see this doc from Julia that was done for pre-renewal health checking.
Infrastructure Security
Are servers provisioned via a build/codified pipeline?
Can staff login (SSH/Console/etc) to individual servers?
Is all traffic in/out of server encrypted?
Is the cluster subnet firewalled from other network resources?
If a server is destroyed/lost, are logs and events available post-mortem?
Is root token creation restricted? Monitored?

DataDog Vault Status Checker
# drafty custom-vault.py

# the following try/except block will make the custom check compatible with any Agent version
try:
# first, try to import the base class from new versions of the Agent...
# This should be run as root
# this creates a self-signed certificate with the IP addresses as IP SANS
# Todo - see if we want to roll this into https://github.com/hashicorp/linux-packaging/blob/master/products/vault/scripts/postinst
# dump interfaces to file to work with
