Fleet Dashboard — DevMonk Connect

What is it?

One pane of glass for all your machines

If you have more than one server — a Raspberry Pi at home, a VPS in the cloud, a Mac mini in the office — you'd normally have to open each one separately. DevMonk's Fleet Dashboard lets you register all your agents in one primary dashboard and see their status at a glance. Online, offline, last seen time — all in one place. Click a machine to open its dashboard directly.

Before You Start

Requirements checklist

✔DevMonk agent installed on the primary machine (where you'll manage the fleet)

✔DevMonk agent installed on each remote machine you want to add

✔The primary machine must be able to reach each remote agent's URL (domain, IP, or VPN IP)

Step-by-Step

How to set up the Fleet Dashboard

1

Install the DevMonk agent on each machine

On every machine you want to add to the fleet, run the installer. Each agent starts listening on its own port.

$ curl -sSL https://devops-monk.com/install.sh | bash

2

Open the Fleet page on your primary machine

Go to your main DevMonk instance → click "Fleet" in the sidebar.

┌──────────────────────────────────────────┐ │ FLEET [ + Register ] │ │ ──────────────────────────────────── │ │ No agents registered yet. │ │ │ │ Add a remote agent to get started. │ └──────────────────────────────────────────┘

3

Click "Register Agent"

Enter a name for the machine and its DevMonk URL. This can be an IP address, a domain, or a VPN IP (like 10.100.0.x).

┌──────────────────────────────────────┐ │ Register Agent │ │ Name: [ raspberry-pi ] │ │ URL: [ http://192.168.1.100:7474] │ │ [ Register ] │ └──────────────────────────────────────┘

4

Ping to verify the connection

Click "Ping" next to the new agent. If it responds, the status turns green. If not, check the URL and network connectivity.

1

Install DevMonk on all your VPS machines

SSH into each VPS and run the installer once. The agent starts automatically on port 7474 (or behind your configured domain).

2

Register each VPS in your primary Fleet page

On your primary DevMonk instance → Fleet → Register Agent → enter the VPS domain or public IP.

┌──────────────────────────────────────────┐ │ FLEET │ │ ● vps-germany https://de.example.com │ │ ● vps-usa https://us.example.com │ │ ✗ vps-asia offline (last: 3m ago) │ └──────────────────────────────────────────┘

3

Ping agents to check connectivity

Use the Ping button for a quick latency check and to confirm the agent is alive. The status updates in real time.

Try it now

Register your first remote agent

Install DevMonk on a second machine (even another device on your home network), then register it in your primary Fleet page. Ping it to confirm the connection — you'll see the latency in milliseconds.

# On the remote machine — install the agent:
curl -sSL https://devops-monk.com/install.sh | bash

# Then in your primary DevMonk:
Fleet → Register Agent → enter http://REMOTE_IP:7474 → Ping

Common Questions

FAQ

The agent's status shows as "offline" with a "last seen" timestamp indicating the last time it responded. Nothing is removed — when the machine comes back online and the agent starts again, the status automatically updates to online.

No. You can register an agent using its local IP (192.168.x.x), a VPN IP (10.100.0.x if you've set up WireGuard), or a domain name. As long as your primary machine can reach the URL, it works.

The Fleet Dashboard currently supports ping and status checks only. To manage a remote agent's containers or files, click the agent's URL link to open its full DevMonk dashboard in a new tab — then you have access to all features for that machine.

There's no hard limit. Register as many machines as you need. The fleet page scales to show all of them in a list. Performance depends on how many pings the primary agent does periodically to check statuses.
