Thank you for your logs. You need to add the 'securityadmin' role to the SQL user you've configured in Pulseway Manager.

[Dashboard requires administrative privileges]

Hi Martin,

We require administrative access so that we can write to the Program Files directory (to install updates). There is no way for you to run Pulseway Dashboard without administrative rights without breaking some functionality.

[Accordion Style]

Hi David,

Thank you for your feedback. This is a great idea, would you like this for all items (so you won't navigate from the details page) but only open accordion and display the contents there or support both navigation and accordion?

[Need instance id]

Hi Guy,

We are considering on allowing you to add notifications for other monitored systems in the future. We'll let you know if this reaches production.

Chris

[Need instance id]

Hi Guy,

You can only use the RESTful API to generate notifications for instances created using the RESTful API.

[RAID Monitoring and ESXi host resource monitoring]

Hi,

Pulseway cannot directly monitor RAID arrays however you can use the following tools that redirect RAID events to the event log which Pulseway can detect and notify you.

For HP you can use the "HP Smart Array Event Notification Service" and for DELL there are built-in event log writers in the drivers (documentation). Also check to see if the RAID Adapter supports SNMP which Pulseway can hook into and monitor the status too.

[Need instance id]

Hi Guy,

Welcome to the Pulseway community. The instance_id is a unique identifier for your API instance. This is generally the serial number of the application or some identifier you use to differentiate an application instance from another.

Hi Markus,

It seems that you're running a very old version of the windows agent. Please uninstall it (your settings will remain), download the latest windows agent from here and install it.

Hi,

Can you attach a screenshot of the error or type in the error message? This is required to understand what the issue is.

Chris

[Dashboard for mobile devices]

There is no GUI application for the Linux agent. You can configure the daemon by editing the configuration file from: /etc/pulseway/config.xml.sample and then renaming it to config.xml . Service notifications are also configured from the configuration file.

Hi,

Do you have any directory notifications enabled? What plugins did you install on that system?

You can setup a Pulseway group policy to automatically enable the Remote Desktop module (the service will automatically download and install the latest version of the module). Check out the page 19 of the user manual (link).

[Req: Transfer (or at least open/view files)]

Hi,

We are working on introducing this feature as part of the Remote Desktop module. Would you like to transfer files between your mobile device (or webapp) or between monitored systems?

PS: You do know that you can send files from a system to your Inbox, right?

[Dashboard for mobile devices]

Hi Bastian,

No worries, glad I could help .

Chris

[Dashboard for mobile devices]

Hi Bastian,

Thank you for the kind words. You could setup a device access policy for his mobile phone to only give him read-only access to the systems. He will still receive notifications and be able to check the status of systems but no commands will be displayed or allowed from his phone. Check out this blog post.
