Connect your Proxmox hosts and onboard the on-host agent that unlocks provisioning and networking.
Add a host from the Hosts page with its address and Proxmox credentials. The password is encrypted at rest: it is never shown back to the browser or returned in any API response. Use the per-host Test action to verify connectivity at any time.
To unlock provisioning and networking, set up the agent on the host. Set up agent connects once over SSH (using a one-time root credential that is discarded afterwards, with the host key pinned), installs a small service, and waits for its first heartbeat, all shown live in a progress dialog.
From then on you can update or remove the agent in one click. The agent is required and version-checked: if it is missing, stale, or out of date, the panel shows a blocking notice with a one-click fix. You can store the SSH credential encrypted so future operations don't re-prompt.
Each node has a management page showing live CPU / RAM / network / storage charts and tables of its guests, storage volumes and networks, with an “as of” timestamp so you always know how fresh the data is. It opens instantly and survives an unreachable host. Admins can reboot or shut down the node from here, behind a typed confirmation, and open a root shell on the node.
A per-host inventory captures nodes, guests, storages and networks on a schedule and keeps a history, so you can see the current state and a storage-usage trend even when a host is offline. Offline guests keep their last-known IP, and guests that have genuinely been deleted drop out of the list automatically.
