Monitoring only selected resource pool #253

Open ppiskula opened 4 months ago

ppiskula commented 4 months ago

I am working with infrastructure built around shared Proxmox nodes, resources are separated via resource pools and I have access only to my pool. The cluster administrator created a user for pve-exporter, but it only has permissions to access my pool (/pool/) and not for the entire node (/). In exporter I have an error called "403 Forbidden: Permission check failed (/, Sys.Audit)".

Is there a current or planned option to monitor only the selected resource pool?

Thanks for this feature request. This seems like an interesting idea. The API documentation for the pools endpoint regrettably is quite sparse. But judging from the go-proxmox source, there should be a members field with a list of cluster resources available from the response. Hence, it might be possible to create a new collector based on the ClusterResourceCollector but aimed at a specific pool.
