NAME

proxmox-datacenter-privileged-api - Proxmox Datacenter Manager Privileged API Server

SYNOPSIS

This daemon is normally started and managed as systemd service:

systemctl start proxmox-datacenter-privileged-api
systemctl stop proxmox-datacenter-privileged-api
systemctl status proxmox-datacenter-privileged-api

For debugging, you can start the daemon in foreground as root user through running:

proxmox-datacenter-privileged-api

DESCRIPTION

This daemon exposes the Proxmox Datacenter Manager management API through a restricted UNIX socket at /run/proxmox-datacenter-manager/priv.sock. The daemon runs as root and has permission to do all privileged operations.

NOTE: The daemon listens to a local UNIX socket address only, so you cannot access it from outside. The proxmox-datacenter-api daemon exposes the API to the outside world.
