rcourtman ba26b3581e Settle slow polled reads and keep replication links honest
A review of #2578 found three gaps it left.

The shared poll in createNonSuspendingQuery replaced any read still in
flight on every tick. The API answers 429 with Retry-After: 60 and
apiFetch waits it out, so under rate limiting a polled query slower than
its 30-second interval never settled. Replication reads also ignored the
abort signal, so each replaced read kept running. A poll now skips its
tick while a read an earlier poll started is still in flight; a refresh,
source change or remount revalidation stays replaceable at the next tick
as before. A polled read in flight for 150 seconds is presumed stalled
and replaced, which also clears any spinner it held. Replication reads
forward the signal to apiFetch.

A failed first replication read made the job count zero, so a direct
/proxmox/replication link fell to Overview without its error or Retry.
Replication presence is now unknown until a read succeeds, and a failed
poll after that keeps the last answer instead of reopening the route.

The shared clock returned its last tick, so a cell mounted between ticks
measured from up to 30 seconds ago and the desktop backup age could
disagree with its band. Every read now returns the wall clock and the
tick only schedules re-reads, which retires the backup Math.max
workaround. The #2578 age tests now jump the clock and fire one tick
instead of looping hundreds of re-renders, which timed out under load.

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.
