rcourtman 564ea41a6e Keep Off alert defaults off after saving
Switching a Global Defaults metric Off on the thresholds page staged -1,
and the save payload passed it through as trigger -1. Alert config
normalization reads a negative default trigger as unset and restores the
factory threshold, so every Off default with a positive factory value came
back On after save and reload: agent CPU, memory, disk and disk
temperature, Proxmox node temperature, PBS, Docker, Kubernetes, TrueNAS,
vSphere and storage. Guest and node CPU, memory and disk escaped only
because nothing normalizes them.

The payload builder now writes every Off default as trigger 0, which the
engine and normalization both read as off. Overrides keep -1, which the
override path stores as written. A -1 already stored on a guest or node
default becomes 0 on the next save.

With -1 and 0 both live Off values, the Global Defaults Custom badge
compares Off values as equal, so the factory -1 I/O defaults no longer
read Custom against a saved 0 and tell users they changed something they
had not. A row's custom marker keeps comparing raw values: it drives the
row's revert control and override removal, so a stored -1 override must
stay visible against an Off default.

Contract-Neutral: Global Defaults Off now persists; the Off wire value and Custom badge rule are recorded in the alerts contract, and frontend-primitives gains no rule

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.
