Offline host showing online in Proxmox tab

[asm-ch]

Looks like this:

But actually it's shut down and hosts tab shows this correct:

Bug, feature, misconfigured...?

Thanks for the report! This could happen if:

1. Stale WebSocket data - The Proxmox tab might be showing cached state that hasnt updated after the host went offline
2. Polling timing - There can be a brief delay (up to the polling interval) before offline status is detected

A few questions to help investigate:

• Did a refresh (F5) update the status correctly?
• How long after the host shutdown did you notice the issue?
• Is this reproducible consistently?

If you can reproduce it, checking the browser console (F12 → Console) for any WebSocket errors when the host goes offline would be helpful.

In the meantime, the Hosts tab showing correct status suggests the underlying detection is working - it might be a frontend state sync issue.

Thanks for your quick reply.

• No, the wrong display is on at leat two browsers on at least two machines.
• Immediately and it's lasting until now (10 hours offline says the hosts tab).
• Yes it's since I installed and configured Pulse.

In the beginning I had not the agent but the proxy mode I guess. Maybe there something went wrong with uninstall / install? Best regards.

Thanks for the additional details. This appears to be a genuine bug where the Proxmox tab is showing stale data while the Hosts tab (using the agent) correctly shows the host as offline.

To confirm: The Proxmox tab is likely still showing cached data from before the host went offline. Since you mentioned switching from proxy mode to agent mode, there may be some leftover configuration or cached state.

A few things to try:

1. Clear browser cache and reload Pulse
2. Check if the node is still configured in Settings → Nodes (you may have both an old proxy config and the new agent config)
3. Restart Pulse to clear any server-side caches

If those don't help, could you check Settings → Nodes and confirm how x13sem-pve is configured? Looking for whether there's a duplicate entry or if the configuration shows the correct connection method.

Nope. In Agents and Proxmox there was only one line for this host.
For now I just removed the PVE and reinstalled via Agent-install-copy-paste-to-ssh. Let's see this evening if there's something different. Even my per-VM-alert-settings were maintained. Great and easy to setup tool.

[asm-ch]

After several updates of Pulse and PVE too and remove/re-add host there is no change.
Hosts display is correct:

Alerts is correct:

But Proxmox is not:

The host is still green/online allthough it's powered off. And the green keeps virtually forever.

Fixed in v5.1.35 @rcourtman
