v5 documented PORT as a legacy alias for FRONTEND_PORT. v6 dropped the
fallback silently, so an install configured with PORT=8080 upgrades to
v6 and comes up on 7655 with no explanation, unreachable behind its
existing port mapping or reverse proxy.
Honor PORT again at lowest precedence (FRONTEND_PORT wins when both are
set) and log a deprecation warning at startup, mirroring the existing
legacy DISABLE_AUTH handling. Document PORT as deprecated in
CONFIGURATION.md and note the compatibility behavior in the v6
changelog.
PULSE_AGENT_INGEST_PORT existed in code but was absent from operator-facing
docs, so the network-isolation feature (dedicated agent-ingest port serving
only /api/agents/*, firewalled from the web UI/management API) was
undiscoverable. Adds it to CONFIGURATION.md (env-var row + Split-Port Agent
Ingest section with the security model and agent wiring via
PULSE_AGENT_CONNECT_URL) and an API Security cross-reference in
AGENT_SECURITY.md. Also aligns WEBHOOKS.md multi-tenant licensing wording with
MULTI_TENANT.md / API.md (Enterprise license + multi_tenant capability).
These two env vars were documented as relay overrides in v6 docs since
March 18 (CONFIGURATION.md, RELAY.md, and the frontend-served doc copy)
but no code ever read them. Operators trying to bootstrap relay headlessly
saw no effect.
Implement them rather than remove the documentation. Headless and
container deployments now have a real path to enable relay and point it
at a private endpoint without going through Settings → Relay.
internal/relay/config_env.go:
- ApplyEnvOverrides(*Config) mutates relay.Config in place.
- PULSE_RELAY_ENABLED accepts true/false/yes/no/1/0/on/off (case-
insensitive). Unrecognized values log a warning and leave the file
value untouched — important so "unset" reads differently from
"explicit false."
- PULSE_RELAY_SERVER goes through the existing validateRelayServerURL
check; invalid URLs log a warning and fall through.
internal/config/persistence_relay.go:
LoadRelayConfig calls ApplyEnvOverrides after the file load and after
the default-fallback when relay.enc is absent, so the env override
applies on every load.
Tests cover unset / true / false / garbage-bool / valid-URL / invalid-URL
/ both-together / nil-config paths in the relay package, plus two
end-to-end tests in internal/config that prove the override flows through
LoadRelayConfig against a real persisted file and against the
missing-file default branch.
Restore the env-var docs with the correct default URL (the full
wss://relay.pulserelay.pro/ws/instance, not the bare hostname the
original aspirational table claimed) and add an explicit precedence note:
saving from the UI after an env override persists the env-effective state
to disk, so clearing the env alone does not revert.
Add internal/relay/config_env_test.go to the relay-runtime registry's
desktop-relay-runtime exact_files so the new code surface is proof-tracked.
Update the matching pin in subsystem_lookup_test.py. Extend the
relay-runtime contract Extension Point 3 to document the override
semantics LoadRelayConfig must satisfy.
CONFIGURATION.md and its frontend-served copy advertised an "Environment
Overrides" table for relay with two env vars, but neither has ever existed
in code. git log -S "PULSE_RELAY_ENABLED" -- 'internal/**.go' is empty;
relay config is entirely file-driven (relay.enc) and configured from
Settings → Relay. The documented default "relay.pulserelay.pro" was also
incorrect — the actual code default is the full ws URL
"wss://relay.pulserelay.pro/ws/instance".
Replace the misleading table with a clarifying paragraph that states the
truth: relay has no env-var overrides, it's UI-configured, and the actual
default server URL. Operators trying to deploy headlessly with the
documented env vars would silently get the default config because the
runtime never reads them; better to say so explicitly.
Found during a sweep of all 29 PULSE_* env vars documented in
CONFIGURATION.md against the codebase. These two were the only doc-only
drift; the other 27 all have real production references.
- Fixed --disable-docker not being passed to systemd service file. Related to #1151
- Added init: true requirement to HTTPS/TLS docs for Docker. Related to #1166
Update docs to reflect the simplified temperature monitoring architecture:
- Remove references to pulse-sensor-proxy throughout
- Update TEMPERATURE_MONITORING.md to focus on unified agent approach
- Update CONFIGURATION.md, DEPLOYMENT_MODELS.md, FAQ.md
- Remove SECURITY_CHANGELOG.md (proxy-specific security notes)
- Clarify current recommended setup in various guides
The agent was crashing with 'fatal error: concurrent map writes' when
handleCheckUpdatesCommand spawned a goroutine that called collectOnce
concurrently with the main collection loop. Both code paths access
a.prevContainerCPU without synchronization.
Added a.cpuMu mutex to protect all accesses to prevContainerCPU in:
- pruneStaleCPUSamples()
- collectContainer() delete operation
- calculateContainerCPUPercent()

- Major updates to README.md and docs/README.md for Pulse v5
- Added technical deep-dives for Pulse Pro (docs/PULSE_PRO.md) and AI Patrol (docs/AI.md)
- Updated Prometheus metrics documentation and Helm schema for metrics separation
- Refreshed security, installation, and deployment documentation for unified agent models
- Cleaned up legacy summary files
The storage deduplication logic only checked cluster config's Shared
flag, but this required the cluster config API call to succeed. When
the per-node storage API already returns shared=1 (as the user
verified), we should use that directly.
Now we check three sources for shared storage detection:
1. Per-node API shared flag (storage.Shared)
2. Cluster config shared flag (if available)
3. Storage type heuristics (NFS, RBD, PBS, etc.)

discoverability. Users can click (?) icons to see explanations
with examples for settings they might not understand.
- HelpIcon component with click-to-open popover
- Centralized help content registry in /content/help/
- FeatureTip component for dismissible contextual tips
- Help added to: alert delay, AI endpoints, update channel
- Add to DOCKER.md configuration table and new 'Disabling Update Features' section
- Add to CONFIGURATION.md monitoring overrides table
- Clarify difference between disabling update detection vs hiding buttons
Addresses issue #861 - syslog flooded on docker host
Many routine operational messages were being logged at INFO level,
causing excessive log volume when monitoring multiple VMs/containers.
These messages are now logged at DEBUG level:
- Guest threshold checking (every guest, every poll cycle)
- Storage threshold checking (every storage, every poll cycle)
- Host agent linking messages
- Filesystem inclusion in disk calculation
- Guest agent disk usage replacement
- Polling start/completion messages
- Alert cleanup and save messages
Users can set LOG_LEVEL=debug to see these messages if needed for
troubleshooting. The default INFO level now produces significantly
less log output.
Also updated documentation in CONFIGURATION.md and DOCKER.md to:
- Clarify what each log level includes
- Add tip about using LOG_LEVEL=warn for minimal logging
Adds IncludeAllDeployments option to show all deployments, not just
problem ones (where replicas don't match desired). This provides parity
with the existing --kube-include-all-pods flag.
- Add IncludeAllDeployments to kubernetesagent.Config
- Add --kube-include-all-deployments flag and PULSE_KUBE_INCLUDE_ALL_DEPLOYMENTS env var
- Update collectDeployments to respect the new flag
- Add test for IncludeAllDeployments functionality
- Update UNIFIED_AGENT.md documentation
Addresses feedback from PR #855
The logFormat setting is only available via LOG_FORMAT environment
variable, not in system.json. Updated the example and added a note
clarifying this. Also added LOG_FORMAT to the environment variables
table.
