rcourtman 58347f0c4f Chart history for disks named by their Unraid serial
A SMART row that reports no serial, smartctl's standby row among them,
takes the serial the host's Unraid inventory reports for the same disk:
the adapter shows it and the disk's metrics target reads it. The SMART
and disk I/O writers keyed the row on its own WWN or host/device key
instead, so the chart read a key nothing wrote and the disk's
temperature and I/O history never appeared. The I/O writer did the same
for an Unraid disk with no SMART reading.

HostSMARTDiskMetricID now takes the serial through the adapter's own
rule (hostSMARTDiskSerial over matchUnraidDisk), and the I/O writer keys
a device without a SMART reading by its Unraid serial before the
Proxmox and host/device fallbacks. Source IDs keep the row's own
identity, so registry keys and rehydration are unchanged.

That rule matches by device path alone, so it now skips a path several
SMART rows share. Controller members behind one block device would
otherwise all take the device's serial and merge into one disk, and the
I/O writer's guard against filing an aggregate counter under a member
would stop working. That guard now compares every row on the path by
its own identity, standby rows and legacy "sdc [sat]" labels included,
so an aggregate counter never lands under one member. The I/O writer
also refuses a device that several Unraid rows name.

Samples already written under the old keys stay where they are. The
chart did not read them while the Unraid row named the disk, and a
device-keyed series can hold another disk's samples once device letters
move, so they are not folded into the serial's history.

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.
