Ports réseau à ouvrir

  • 8006/TCPAPI (HTTPS, default)
Étapes de mise en place: Create a read-only user and token in Proxmox VE
  1. Open Datacenter → Permissions → Users → Add, enter the user name dumbmonit, choose the realm Proxmox VE authentication server, then click Add.

    dumbmonit@pve
  2. Open Datacenter → Permissions → Add → User Permission: path /, user dumbmonit@pve, role PVEAuditor, then click Add.

  4. Copy the Token ID and the Secret into DumbMonit's Token ID and Secret fields. The secret is shown only once.

  6. In DumbMonit, enter the address of any node (port 8006 by default).

À savoir. Proxmox VE uses a self-signed certificate by default: tick "Accept an unverifiable certificate" in the options if the connection is refused. On Proxmox VE 8, guest agent details also need VM.Monitor (see the guide).
