The manager lets an admin schedule a reboot (desired.reboot_at) but never showed whether it had happened. Add host uptime to the health snapshot and derive a reboot status from it. - proto: HealthSnapshot.uptime_seconds (15); regenerated pb.go (manager + agent copy). - agent: probe /proc/uptime -> uptime_seconds (with parser + test). - manager: Health.UptimeSeconds cached in inventory; snapshotToHealth maps it; influx writes + whitelists uptime_seconds as a queryable field. - UI: fmt.js dur() + rebootStatus() — boot_time = last_seen - uptime (manager clock frame, no host/manager sync needed), compared to reboot_at. Monitor host detail shows an "uptime" row and a "reboot" row: pending in X / overdue by X / rebooted. Observability-only — works before the reboot ACTUATOR lands (deferred). Once a host boots after the scheduled time (BMC/manual now, agent later), the badge flips to "rebooted" automatically.
fleet-agent — on-host control-plane client (telemetry v1)
The workstation-side half of the fleet management plane. It dials the
fleet-manager agent plane, identifies with the host's TPM, and streams
health telemetry up. It is the client peer of the server hub in
serving/fleet-manager/ (agent.go + proto/fleet_agent.proto).
Baked into the immutable verity image, so — like fleet-hostapi and fleet-enrol
— it is a static, reproducible, CGO_ENABLED=0 Go binary built out of the
build VM by CI (deps proxy-fetched, go.sum-pinned) and file-provisioned in.
What it does (v1 — telemetry only)
- Reuses the TPM identity for mTLS. Loads the signing key at the persistent
handle (
0x81000100) as acrypto.Signer(tpmkey.LoadSigner— the private key never leaves the TPM) and the enrolment cert from NV (0x01800100), and presents them as the mTLS client cert. The manager verifies the chain to the fleet CA and derives the cert serial = inventory key — a host can only ever report as itself (agent.go:peerSerial). - Opens the long-lived
Sessionbidi stream (host dials out; no inbound host port — works across the OPNsense L3 hop from the host VLAN to the mgmt plane). - Sends
Hello(image version, kernel, kiosk URL, root hash, starship name — the fleet-generic facts, pulled fromfleet-hostapion127.0.0.1:9099). - Sends a
HealthSnapshoteveryFLEET_AGENT_INTERVAL— load/cpu/temp/mem/ tmpfs, nvme-root, 802.1X-macsec, selinux, chrony, kiosk-active — probed read-only from/proc+/sys(each probe degrades gracefully; a failure never kills the stream). - Receives
DesiredState/Commandand LOGS them. This build does not act on them. The reconcile actuators (apply kiosk URL, reboot, drain) are a deliberate follow-up (seedocs/TODO.md#14) — the receive path is wired now so adding them needs no protocol change.
A dropped stream is retried with jittered backoff; the manager treats stream loss as the host going offline.
Prerequisite: the host must already be enrolled
The manager rejects the stream (PermissionDenied) until an inventory record
exists for the host's cert serial — that record is born when an admin approves
the host's TPM enrolment (fleet-enrol → enrol-broker → manager). Enrolment
precedes the agent; this ordering is expected.
Config (/etc/fleet-agent/agent.env)
All values are fleet-generic (invariant #1). See the file for the full list:
FLEET_AGENT_MANAGER (manager host:port), FLEET_AGENT_CA (fleet root, reused
from /etc/dot1x/radius-ca.pem), FLEET_AGENT_HANDLE / FLEET_AGENT_NVINDEX (TPM
identity, mirror rd.dot1x.*), FLEET_AGENT_INTERVAL, FLEET_AGENT_HOSTAPI.
