OpManager provides seamless monitoring for your Proxmox Virtual Environment, assuring ideal performance and availability for your virtual infrastructure. Whether you are running virtual machines using KVM or containers with LXC, OpManager provides deep insights into resource usage, performance metrics, and system health — all from a centralised console. Monitoring your Proxmox with OpManager helps you stay ahead of issues and simplify virtual environment management.
Follow these steps to add your Proxmox Nodes for monitoring. This process allows OpManager to connect to your Proxmox Virtual Environment, discover its components, and begin collecting performance data.
First, you need to access the discovery section within OpManager.
On this page, provide the necessary details for OpManager to connect to your Proxmox node:
If you haven't created a credential, see the next section.
To create a new credential profile:
NOTE : If any of the VMs are already discovered or added, OpManager will automatically map them as virtual devices.
OpManager, with the help of the discovered Proxmox VE, identifies the IP address of the VM's and maps it to the host. If QEMU Guest agent is not installed or enabled in Virtual Machine, OpManager discovers it using the VM's host name. If the VM is not discovered automatically, In such case, You can assign the IP address manually for such VMs in the node or cluster snapshot page. (Navigate to Inventory -> Devices and then click on the device to open its snapshot page.) If a VM is not discovered because of an unassigned IP address, you can assign an IP address to a VM by following the simple steps below.
Similarly, you can assign an IP address to a container by following the same steps as above for the desired container.
The Proxmox Node’s user credential must have these permissions:
The cluster must be configured in Proxmox for OpManager to monitor it.
