Qué vigila DumbMonit

Backup server: a thirty-day backup calendar per machine, failed tasks with their logs, scheduled jobs (sync, verify, prune, garbage collection), datastores, disks and ZFS pools, pending updates, the services and package versions of the server itself, and the tape tier when there is one.

  • Proxmox Backup Server

Cómo se conecta

Qué necesita

  • API token (recommended)No expiry and no session opened: the right choice for monitoring.
  • Username / passwordOpens a two-hour session, renewed automatically. Use it only if tokens are not an option.

Puertos de red que abrir

  • 8007/TCPAPI (HTTPS, default)
Pasos de configuración: Create a read-only user and token in Proxmox Backup Server
  1. Open Configuration → Access Control → User Management → Add, enter the user name dumbmonit, choose the realm Proxmox Backup authentication server, then click Add.

    dumbmonit@pbs
  2. Open Configuration → Access Control → API Token → Add: user dumbmonit@pbs, token name monitor. Copy the Token ID and the Secret now, the secret is shown only once.

    dumbmonit@pbs!monitor
  3. Open Configuration → Access Control → Permissions → Add → User Permission: path /, user dumbmonit@pbs, role Audit.

  4. Add a second permission with Add → API Token Permission: path /, token dumbmonit@pbs!monitor, role Audit. A token has its own permissions, so both are needed.

  5. Optional, to see pull sync jobs and the tape tier: repeat both permissions with role RemoteAudit on path /remote and role TapeAudit on path /tape.

  6. In DumbMonit, enter the server address (for example pbs.lan:8007), the Token ID and the Secret.

Ojo. Both the user and the token need the permission: given to the token alone, it grants nothing and PBS reports nothing. The server uses a self-signed certificate by default: tick "Accept an unverifiable certificate" in the options if the connection is refused.
