8 | {pve} is simple. There is no need to install a separate | |
9 | management tool, everything can be done via your web browser (Latest | |
10 | Firefox and Google Chrome is preferred). To access | |
11 | VM/CT console, a built in HTML5 console is used. As alternative, SPICE | |
12 | can be used. | |
13 | ||
14 | As we use Proxmox Cluster file system (pmxcfs),you can connect to any | |
15 | node to manage the whole cluster. | |
16 | ||
17 | To use the Central Web-based Management, you need a modern browser, | |
18 | this includes: | |
19 | ||
20 | * Firefox, a release from the current year, or the latest Enterprise | |
21 | * Support Release Chrome, a release from the current year | |
22 | * Microsoft currently supported versions of Edge Browser | |
23 | * Apple currently supported versions of Safari | |
24 | ||
25 | If {pve} detect you're connecting from a mobile device, you will | |
26 | redirected to a light weight touch based UI. | |
27 | ||
28 | The web interface can be reached via https://youripaddress:8006 | |
29 | (default login is: root, the password is specified during the | |
30 | installation). | |

52 | |
53 | The GUI has 3 sectors: | |
54 | ||
55 | * On the left side is the navigation bar. The navigation bar is | |
56 | structured into 4 different types. It has 4 different views, | |
57 | which can be selected on the top. | |
58 | ** Datacenter: contains all the settings belonging to all machines. | |
59 | ** Nodes: represent the host where the VM/CT runs on. It is named like | |
60 | the hostname. Normally the name was set by the installation. | |
61 | ** Entity: can be a VM, container or a storage. | |
62 | ** Logical pools: it is possible to group entities to a group for easy management. | |
63 | * On the right side is the main management center, where all content | |
64 | of the selected entity form the navigation bar is shown. | |
65 | * On the bottom is the task log section, where all tasks are shown. | |
