Hey all, just hoping to get some advice on any software out there that can help me keep on top of all the VMs i’m running on my Proxmox instances, and potentially my other machines I have too.
I’m looking for a way to help me stay on top of updates and things like when the machine was last online, last rebooted etc etc. There are commercial products for such a thing, and I don’t necessarily want to install any sort of Agent on each of the machines (if I can avoid it).
I looked at something like Homarr, but not sure if that’s what i’m really after.
What recommendations do all you have?
Ansible doesn’t need an agent besides python and can take care of most kinds of updates. You have to run/schedule it regularly though. It’s pretty good for updating multiple hosts at once (assuming they mostly have the same OSes).
For uptime, CPU etc you mostly need agents but Proxmox also shows some of these in the UI.
Cheers I’ll check out Ansible, it been on my lost of things to look at over the years anyway so its a good excuse to dig into it
