Storage Management (Datacenter + Physical Disks) All

Manage storage backends at the datacenter level (Directory, LVM, LVM-Thin, ZFS, NFS, CIFS, iSCSI) plus physical disks per server — initialize, wipe, build ZFS pools or LVM volume groups. No SSH needed.

PBS Auto-Deploy to PVE Clusters All

Deploy PBS servers as storage to every node of a PVE cluster with one click. Auto-detects existing PBS storages; undeploy with safety check for dependent backup schedules.

Central Template & ISO Library All / Pro+

Unified view of all ISOs and container templates across servers, built-in catalog (16 popular ISOs + 8 CT templates), per-node internet/proxy detection. Pro+: app-as-proxy download for offline nodes, multi-server template sync, default ISO sets per scope (global / location / cluster) with one-click rollout.

Live Agent Metrics All

Node metrics (CPU, RAM, network, disk I/O, load) come directly from the PVE Agent — ~1 s real-time instead of ~60 s RRD aggregation. Live mode in charts shows an EKG-style sliding window with RRD history as baseline.

4-Tier License Model + 14-Day Grace Period All

Community (free) / Pro / Enterprise / MSP with per-tier server limits. 14-day grace period after license expiry keeps all features active, with staged email notifications and in-app banner.

Backup Schedules + Notifications All

PVE backup jobs (vzdump) in the backup tab with full CRUD. Schedule-based warnings, email notifications, PBS verify jobs, verified/encrypted badges.

SPA Navigation + Sidebar Tree All

Single-page navigation without reloads. Full infrastructure tree with locations, clusters, servers, VMs/CTs. Context menus with real actions.

PVE Cluster Management + Migration & HA All

Automated PVE cluster creation and node joining with SSH key exchange. Live migration for VMs, restart migration for CTs. HA resources with affinity rules (PVE 9+).

Custom Checks + SSH Key Manager All

Define custom shell checks that run periodically on servers — results shown as health badges on the dashboard. SSH keys generated, imported and managed centrally (download as .pem/.ppk), integrated into server and container workflows.

Kiosk Mode All

Fullscreen dashboard for TV displays — header and sidebar hidden, ESC to exit.

v1.2 PXE, VM/CT Details, Storage & PBS Console
PXE Auto-Deployment Enterprise+

Automated Proxmox VE rollout on bare-metal servers via PXE boot. Discovery agent collects hardware info, admin picks a deployment template (ZFS Mirror/RAIDZ, ext4, XFS), server installs fully unattended. Integrated PXE server (dnsmasq proxy-DHCP) included.

VM/CT Detail Page All

Full-page view per VM/CT with 9 tabs (Overview, Config, Network, Disks, Backups, Snapshots, Firewall, Tasks, Console), live performance charts, inline resource editing, disk management, backup & restore, snapshots, and built-in console.

VM/CT Migration with Live Progress All

Migration modal with live PVE task output, real progress tracking and a status indicator in the header — every migration in the fleet visible at a glance.

Storage Management (Cluster + Server) All

Full storage management from the cluster dashboard and the server detail view. Add/edit/delete storages, change node assignments and content types, create ZFS datasets with compression (LZ4/ZSTD). Supports Directory, LVM, LVM-Thin, ZFS, NFS, CIFS/SMB, iSCSI.

PBS SSH Console + Task Logs All

Investigate stuck or failed PBS tasks from the FloppyOps UI. Live task log with auto-refresh, integrated SSH terminal to the PBS server, stuck-task detection (>12h) with one-click proxy restart.

App Footer + UI Polish All

New app footer with migration status, running tasks and version info. Slimmer header. Clickable health issues, responsive charts, stopped-VM overlay.

v1.3 Clustering & Security
Smart Add Wizard + Auto-Cluster Discovery All

Enter one IP — FloppyOps auto-detects standalone vs. cluster, provisions every node (API token, agent), and registers PBS servers found on the way. SSH pre-check prevents ghost entries from wrong passwords.

PVE Cluster Create & Join from the App All

Create PVE clusters directly from the app — promote an existing standalone to master or enter new server IPs. pvecm create/add, SSH key exchange and live SSE progress are handled for you.

Storage Detail Page All

Click any storage in the sidebar tree to see usage, config and content table — same look-and-feel as in the Proxmox VE web UI.

Agent + App Security Hardening All

Agent gets rate-limiting, SSRF protection, storage-path validation and a configurable bind address. App gets login brute-force protection (5 attempts / 15 min per IP), session hardening, and security headers (X-Frame-Options, CSP, Referrer-Policy).

v1.4 Framework Migration, Hardening & Updates · shipped
Framework Migration to Laravel All

Legacy router replaced by native platform controllers. Same UI, same features — foundation for faster iteration.

Security & Stability Hardening All

Encrypted-at-rest server credentials, CSP/HSTS/Permissions-Policy headers, login throttling, session-fixation fix, profile password policy, PXE token gate. Sidebar tree consolidated to one state store with consistent multi-expand UX.

Self-Healing Operations All

Failed apt-upgrades auto-repair (free space, fix dpkg, retry, clean up) — for PVE nodes, PBS servers and replication targets. Stale PVE locks older than 10 min are cleared. Guests with onboot=1 that stopped unexpectedly get restarted. Anything that cannot heal lands as an alert in header drawer + mail digest.

Update-Catchup + Split-View Updates Page All

A server offline at its scheduled cron time now catches up at the same time-of-day on the next reachable day. New split-view updates page (server list + detail panel). Server detail page loads noticeably faster (browser-cached JS).

Support-Logging & Disaster Recovery All

Four-stage support diagnostics (request log, service trace, one-click bug-report ZIP) plus config-backup with one-click restore that survives the maintenance lock and DB drop. Cross-host recovery via setup.sh --restore. Minimum PHP 8.4, ionCube Loader pipeline for service classes.

Update Channels & Centralized What`s-New All

Choose your update channel (stable, or beta to try new features earlier) and check interval right in Settings > App, with an inline "Install now" button. Centralized What`s-New modal grouped by version with a bilingual DE/EN toggle.

v1.5 Migration & Secure Setup · shipped
