A node alert that moves to its linked Pulse agent closes with a moved_to_agent resolution (#2580), and #2591 taught Patrol, alert history and the assistant to say so. Two readers still showed the close as a recovery. Performance reports dropped the resolution when copying recently resolved alerts into reporting.AlertInfo. A node report generated in the five-minute window after a handover read HEALTHY, "All systems operating normally", counted the alert as triggered and resolved, and told the AI narrator resolved: true, although nothing had seen the condition clear. Report rows now carry the resolution and the alert's resource. pkg/reporting treats an alert that closed without recovering as still live unless the report also shows its successor's reading for that metric (an open alert, or a recovery since the handover), so a handover never reads as healthy and one condition is counted once; fleet reports match handovers across all their resources. The PDF card, Quick Stats, active list and heuristic narrative say where the alert went and to check the agent, the alerts table shows "Moved" with the engine's summary, fleets count it as active and name the agent, and the narrator gets resolved: false, the summary and whether the successor's alert is listed, with prompt rules for both. Resource change readers labelled every alert_resolved change "Alert resolved" in green and prefixed the headline with it, so a moved close read "Alert resolved: Alert moved to pve1 (Host Agent). This is not a recovery...". getResourceChangePresentation now reads the alert_resolution metadata: such a change is "Alert moved" in the neutral blue of the history badge, and its summary is the whole headline in the drawer, ResourceChangeSummary and Patrol's assessment handoff. Reports requested as agent, which is how the Reports page addresses every Proxmox node, still carry no alert rows at all, and node alert history is stored under legacy node IDs that the drawer never queries; both are separate fixes.
Pulse documentation
Start here for installation, platform setup, security, operations, and Pulse Intelligence. Commands, configuration keys, image names, API fields, and product identifiers remain untranslated in localized guides.
Start here
- Install Pulse — signed Proxmox/Linux installation, Docker, Docker Compose, Kubernetes, and first-run setup.
- Production deployment and security — least-privilege Proxmox setup, root-agent boundaries, discovery, supply-chain verification, plan limits, scale evidence, and a rollout checklist.
- Upgrade from Pulse v5 — migration prerequisites, rollback, agent continuity, and post-upgrade checks.
- Releases and update channels: choosing Stable or Preview, beta and RC expectations, and how releases are tested and promoted.
- Configure Pulse — authentication, notifications, discovery, retention, and system settings.
- Deployment models — data locations, lifecycle, and differences between supported deployment paths.
- Troubleshooting and FAQ — common failures, diagnostics, and operator questions.

Platforms and agents
- Proxmox Backup Server
- Proxmox Mail Gateway
- Docker and Podman
- Kubernetes and Helm
- TrueNAS SCALE and CORE
- Unified Agent
- Agent security
- VM disk monitoring
- ZFS monitoring
- Temperature monitoring
VMware vSphere support is early access. Current builds expose dedicated vSphere inventory and recovery context, but operators should validate the integration against their own vCenter before production use.
Monitoring and operations
- Metrics history
- Recovery data
- Webhooks
- Automatic updates
- Centralized agent management (Pro)
- Operational trust model
- Current product screenshots
Pulse Intelligence
- Assistant, Patrol, and external-agent overview
- Patrol modes and safety
- Assistant safety model
- External agent HTTP and MCP substrate
Patrol watch-only analysis is available on Community with a local model or the operator's own provider. Investigation and governed fixes require the relevant Pulse Pro capabilities.
Security, privacy, and access
- Production deployment and security
- Security review scope
- Authentication and credential storage review packet
- Security guide
- Privacy and telemetry disclosure
- OIDC and SSO
- Proxy authentication
- Role-based access control (Pro)
- Audit logging (Pro)
- Reverse proxy configuration
- Code-signing policy
Plans and managed access
- Community, Relay, and Pro capabilities
- Relay and Pulse Mobile handoff
- Multi-tenant organizations (Enterprise/custom)
- Provider-hosted MSP operations (request-assisted)
Pulse Cloud is not generally available. Ordinary self-hosted Pulse remains the primary installation path; MSP and Enterprise access are explicit commercial paths rather than defaults in self-hosted setup.
Development and reference
Detailed design notes and dated migration specifications may remain in this directory for maintainers, but they are not operator setup guides unless they are linked from the sections above.
Previous versions and migrations
- Upgrade from v4 to v5
- Retired unified-navigation migration — historical context only; current Pulse uses platform-shaped navigation.
- Move a Pulse installation
