Regarding alarm and metrics in MAAS

Anything you can do in the UI you can also do in the using the API/CLI. To
download the current installation log you can use the command

maas <profile> node-script-result download <system_id> current-installation

Similarly you can do the same for commissioning  or testing results
maas <profile> node-script-result download <system_id> current-commissioning
maas <profile> node-script-result download <system_id> current-testing

For commissioning and testing results you may want to download a tar with
all results instead of the text
maas <profile> node-script-result download <system_id> current-testing
filetype=tar.xz

MAAS stores metadata about the result status as status, runtime, and when
installation/commissioning/testing started
maas <profile> node-script-result read <system_id> current-installation

MAAS also stores historic results which can be viewed with
maas <profile> node-script-results read <system_id>

Hope that helps!
