Proxmox vm status not showing

[sine (sn)]

HI,

I have added a Proxmox node to the checkmk raw monitoring, I have enabled the services, Proxmox VE VM Snapshot Age, Proxmox VE VM Info, etc, but none showing under host, is there any additional configurations needed?

Thank you

Have you configured the Proxmox API integration?

The host for the VM has to have the same name in the monitoring and in Proxmox.

Hi sine,

the screenshot seems to be from the Proxmox Server. Status checks should appear at the VM hosts.

As @r.sander mentioned, the API integration for Proxmox VE has to be configured for the Proxmox VE server host.

The ruleset can be found under Setup → Agents → VM, Cloud, Container → Proxmox VE.

Before that, you need to configure a monitoring user on the PVE host, as explained in this blog article:
