Bug Fixes
  • Fix disk metric spikes when QEMU guest agent intermittently times out. Disk usage now carries forward previous valid data instead of falling back to Proxmox's always-zero cluster/resources values, preventing chart spikes (e.g. 57% to 0% to 57%). (#​1319)
  • Fix uninstalled host agents reappearing in the dashboard until Pulse is restarted. Removed agents are now tracked and rejected on reconnect, with a 24-hour cooldown and manual re-enroll option in Settings. (#​1331)
  • Fix recovery/resolved alert notifications silently disabled when saving settings via the Settings page. (#​1332)
  • Fix intermittent VM disappearance from dashboard during polling cycles. (#​555)
  • Promote guest-agent /proc/meminfo fallback for more accurate VM memory reporting when other sources are unavailable. (#​1270)
  • Fix FreeBSD SMART disk detection for ada, da, and nvd device types. (#​1254)
  • Filter virtual disks (ZFS zvols, device-mapper, virtio, etc.) from SMART health checks to prevent false-positive FAILED alerts. (#​1329)
