Debugging non responsive dish or cable
I'm guessing you've already looked at the debug in the SL app. This is a good reference on what the debug lines mean. https://github.com/sparky8512/starlink-grpc-tools/blob/main/starlink_grpc.py
-
alerting on bad stuff for my SL?
If you want to get really detailed there's a gRPC endpoint in Dishy with a whole lot of debug data you can look at. See these dashboards for instance. I set all this up a long while back but stopped using it, partly because it's not easy and partly because a Ubiquiti bug makes it hard for me to get at the data.

Does Dishy switch satellite if it knows a satellite will go into an obstructed area?
BoresightAzimuth&Elevation in the debug data are not virtual. That's where your dish points physically. I was told in the beginning (2020 - early 2021) dish shared via grpc the serving satellite number and it showed if the connection was prescheduled or fallback but they hid that api from public access. The only way to see what satellites dish connects to is to observe obstruction map filling up after a cold start. The dish doesn't know about obstructions after a cold start though.

How to „download” the Statistics data?
You can use Starlink's API to pull data and statistics, you can find some tools at https://github.com/sparky8512/starlink-grpc-tools/

Deciphering Debug Data
I found a good one on GitHub. https://github.com/sparky8512/starlink-grpc-tools/blob/main/starlink_grpc.py

Obstructions increase/decrease with heat? Or is it something else?
Have a look at https://github.com/sparky8512/starlink-grpc-tools

https://github.com/danopstech/starlink_exporter - Works but looks to be missing a lot of metrics/outdated.

Need internet speed monitor image OS
If you want a quick and dirty 'black box' solution then the article contains a link to https://github.com/danopstech/starlink_exporter that looks like it exports more info than you can shake a stick it!

How to monitor Starlink with Prometheus
There are several great projects available from the open source community, but the one we settled on using for the basis of our project was the [Starlink Prometheus Exporter (https://github.com/danopstech/starlink_exporter) from Daniel Willcocks. We encourage you to look at his other project Starlink Monitoring System if you are interested in a pre-packaged solution.
-
Run your own monitoring system, maybe! If I'm any good at writing readme's - https://github.com/danopstech/starlink
This uses my Starlink exporter I shared a while ago, along with a speedtest exporter and ping tester blackbox exporter. It also starts a Prometheus and Grafana container for you.
-
New Dish software comes with some extra gRCP methods, this one looks interesting, could it be the feature in the beta update email regarding switching to a better satellite when obstructed!
This is the code talking to dishy https://github.com/danopstech/starlink_exporter

Starlink Monitoring: How Much is Too Much?
No docs that I can find, I get the protoset from the dish and generate the protoc files with golang output. your welcome to read through my code https://github.com/danopstech/starlink_exporter
