When a Pulse agent is linked to a Proxmox node, the node releases its CPU, memory and disk alerts to the agent, and any node alert still open closes. The close has to reach integrations so a PagerDuty or webhook incident opened from the node alert does not stay open forever, but it went out as a recovery: "pve1 on pve1 is now healthy" for a node still at 95% memory, with synthesized "recovery projection" evidence behind it. #1682 is the same complaint from another trigger: a close announced as "now healthy" when nothing recovered. A resolved alert can now carry an AlertResolution saying why it closed. The first reason is moved_to_agent, with the agent's alert resource ID and name. releaseCanonicalMetricAlert, the disabled-threshold release pulled out of evaluateCanonicalMetricAlert, takes the resolution, and clearAlertWithResolution stamps a copy on the alert before it resolves. It rides the Alert JSON into the resolved callback, the delivery queue, the history row and the event log. The synthesized closing evidence and the resolve transition say what happened instead of claiming a recovery projection. Notifications still send the close and change only the words: "Memory alert moved to pve1 (Host Agent). This is not a recovery: check the agent for the current reading." for webhook messages, a MOVED title without the green check on ntfy, and "Pulse alert moved" on email and Apprise. A nil resolution, which every caller passes today, leaves ordinary recoveries and the disabled-threshold path unchanged. The node release adopts the reason once the host-agent node link records which metrics the agent evaluates.
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
