February 9, 20206 yr The beauty is you don’t even need to install it on your VMs you can just set your config profile in unRAID To send you an alert if pinging any of those PMs goes down that’s how I have my VM’s monitored without paying extra to Pulseway Since I am currently paying for five systems but I only need four now since I sold one of the servers that was running my third instance of Unraid Edited June 1, 20206 yr by Can0nfan Spelling correction
May 25, 20206 yr I'm surprised theres not a community plugin for this. Seems like it would be fairly popular?

It’s pretty easy to install and I think it’s possible because Pulseway is a paid service (beyond three monitored systems) that’s why there isn’t a plug-in for this
June 10, 20206 yr Wondering if someone may be able help or point me in the right direction. Basically I had installed pulseway but was having some issues so decided to uninstall it. Went through the process on the previous page Quote Just remove the copy and execute commands commands from your go file then Run /etc/rc.d/RV.pulseway stop to remove the config and files in command line run these: rm -rf /etc/pulseway rm -rf /var/pulseway rm -rf /boot/pulseway rm /boot/extra/pulseway.tgzp then reboot the server I modified the stop command to /etc/rc.d/rc.pulseway as it wouldn't stop with the other command and I also made sure to edit the pulseway.tgzp file name to my file name so it would delete it, which it has. But now whenever I start my server I get the following prompts and errors Verifying package ._pulseway_x64.txz. xz: (stdin): File format not recognized Unable to install ./._pulseway_x64.txz: tar archive is corrupt (tar returned error code 2) Any help would be really appreciated. Thanks, Just had a thought after typing all this up. I'm thinking my mac has created ._ file in its place which I also need to delete which should stop the server trying to install that file. Will try it and report back in case someone else has this issue. Edited June 10, 20206 yr by Abz thought of possible solution
August 14, 20205 yr I'm at step 6. And I cannot find the config.xml file. I assume it's supposed to show up in the pulsway folder we made earlier but that folder is empty. Edited August 14, 20205 yr by redstonegenious Spelling

This folder should be automatically created when pulseway is installed by steps 2/4. What's returned when you start the pulseway service manually: /etc/rc.d/rc.pulseway start Edited August 14, 20205 yr by PTRFRLL

November 9, 20205 yr How can I revert those changes I just made here? I don't want to pay a year upfront for Pulseway because I have more than 2 devices I want to run it on, so I just want to delete it again.

Just reverse all the steps you did to install it as far as paying upfront you will have to reach out to Pulseway themselves I had to do the same when I went from five systems down to three and they just ended up extending my time for the difference

December 16, 20205 yr Thanks @PTRFRLL for this post! I have Pulseway installed on both my unraid servers and I set a policy in Pulseway and changed the config in the config.xml file, but its not sending notifications when the server goes offline. I get the messages saying that the server is back online. Anyone have any idea why? Edited December 16, 20205 yr by yellowcooln

I think Pulseway periodically checks if the server is responding and if not, it will generate a offline notification but that check isn't always completed successfully.

January 21, 20215 yr Author 1 hour ago, Ericthered said: I get config.xml.sample You just need to rename that file to simply config.xml: mv /etc/pulseway/config.xml.sample /etc/pulseway/config.xml
January 21, 20215 yr Thanks for your help I got it I think it was between step 3 and 5 I was thinking something should have been showing up in the /boot/pulseway folder and thats what had me stumped.
February 12, 20215 yr Is Pulseway still free up to 2 instances being monitored? Which type of account has to be opened to be able to use it with tool from this topic?

The Free Account for two instances works for this plan, that is what I'm using with a spare account that monitors my UnRaid host and main Windows Server that hosts TeamSpeak and Game Servers.
March 8, 20215 yr Quick one - does the Pulseway Agent for Slackware need to be updated on our system on a regular basis? Or does that happen as part of the service? Thank you!

That said, I'm in the "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" camp given the pace of Unraid OS updates
