The monitor rebuilds its registry from the state snapshot and then ingests supplemental records (vSphere, TrueNAS). Snapshot and resource ingest applied the operator's manual links, but record ingest did not, so a link whose side exists only as a record (an agent inside a vSphere or TrueNAS VM, an agent on a TrueNAS host) never joined in the registry behind the websocket broadcast and /api/state. The resources API seeds through resource ingest and showed the same pair merged, and the published inventory also flipped to merged whenever continuity hydration cloned the registry for an unrelated absent machine. Record ingest now applies the links, with the adapter's stale thresholds on the rebuild, live supplemental and overlay paths. Continuity records stay out of it: a saved enrollment only fills an absent machine and must not lend its linked guest an offline verdict. A link merge keeps the TrueNAS and vSphere payloads the primary lacks. Joining links in the rebuild exposed how identity treats a folded resource. Its ID was no longer live, so once an agent-type primary was pinned with the folded agent's machine key, pin succession re-keyed the link onto the primary itself and the next rebuild split the pair. That already broke snapshot links with a Proxmox node as primary. The registry now remembers each folded resource, and pin-driven and record-declared successions treat it as observed. Mock mode still builds its view from fixtures without the link store, so the mock broadcast is unchanged here.
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
