rcourtman ade799307a Rank a confirmed availability outage first in the summary check
A resource with several attached availability checks exposes one
compatibility summary, Resource.Availability, and health reads only that.
The summary ranked every observed failure equally and broke ties by
target id, so a check that had failed once below its threshold could
hide a later-sorting check with a confirmed outage: the outage check's
own row carried availability_unreachable while the machine it monitors
read healthy.

Rank a confirmed outage above any other failure and have health use the
same per-check rule, so target health and row presentation follow a
confirmed outage on any attached check. The rule mirrors the poller's
incident gate: observed failures at the threshold, an unavailable
aggregate when one is reported, and no indeterminate outcome. A probe
agent that stops reporting keeps its old failure count but reads
indeterminate with an unknown aggregate, so it confirms nothing, on its
own row or on the target. Drawers already list every check from
availabilityChecks; the summary keeps its worst-check meaning.

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.

Localized getting started guides: Deutsch · Español

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.
