Ns8-pegaprox testing

New module to test: PegaProx 0.6.2 beta

Pegaprox: A powerful datacenter management solution for Proxmox VE clusters.

Installation

  1. Add my repository — follow the instructions on the repository website.
  2. Install ns8-pegaprox through the Software Center.

Note
This is the first module release of software currently in beta, and official Docker images are not yet available. For now, it should be used only for testing or quick evaluation of Pegaprox. It looks very nice and promising, with integration of proxLB and proxsnap tools.

thanks for testing and feedback!

Thanks, @LayLow

In the meantime, Pegaprox version 0.6.3 beta has been released.
Here’s the changelog: Release v0.6.3 – Unused Disks Management & Resilience Improvements · PegaProx/project-pegaprox · GitHub

More importantly, I had made a mistake in the first release of the module and the configuration data was not being preserved. I’ve now updated it to 0.6.3, and persistence should be working correctly as well. Sorry about that. :pensive_face:

Sounds like a defacto standard ‘must have’ NS8 module for monitoring your NS8 clusters on Proxmox. That would be a big crowd.

I tested the installtion today.
Experiences:

  1. Reset of the default user pegaprox is not possible. The new password has not been saved. There is no error message.
  2. new users in settinges --> unser management --> add user cannot be created.
  3. Adding a cluster ist also not possible, because the root credentials are nor acepted. The error messsage is Unauthorized.
    I used the exisiting root user.

Does Pegaprox has it’s own user account management or does it rely on a NS8 directory service?

I can’t reproduce. Maybe something went wrong during installation. The project is still beta but under active development.

The password can be changed via “My profile”…

…or in the user settings:

The default username to connect to a node should be root@pam:

It has it’s own user account management.

Thank you, Markus
I did exactly what you showed me in three new installations. It’s not that complicated or unusual. It never worked.
It is now functioning after I restarted the NS8 server.

I also tried to reproduce it, but I didn’t encounter any issues on a fresh installation without any additional modules installed. Do you have some other modules installed?
I’ll try to run some more tests this afternoon.

Regarding ldap, it’s on the roadmap: PegaProx - Roadmap
