rcourtman 283ebaba6d Show a silent agent's retained disk usage as last known
Since #2634 a host agent past its reporting lease reads offline, and the
machine drawer marks its Thermals rows "(last known)". The Disks card in
the same Machine details kept presenting the agent's retained filesystem
usage as current: on a mock stack the silent host's root mount read 93%
in red with a red aggregate bar, beside Thermals reading "45°C (last
known)".

DisksCard now takes a lastKnownReason. With one, the total and each
mount keep their figures, because a disk that filled before the machine
went quiet is evidence, but read "Last known N%" in muted text titled
with the reason, without threshold colour or usage bars, as the guest
drawer's retained filesystem rows already do. The drawer derives one
agentReadingsLastKnownReason from agent.stale for Thermals and Disks
alike, so a Proxmox node that stays online with a silent linked agent
gets the same treatment.

Mount rows may now wrap. On a phone the row's label keeps its full
width, so a long mountpoint squeezed the value into a sliver and clipped
its byte figures; the label now takes its own line with the value below.

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

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

Pulse Intelligence

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

Plans and managed access

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.
