we are working on a Proxmox iPhone App based on the new API,
and we would like to get some feedback of features that you would like to
see in the first version of the App.
IMHO iPhone version is useless: this device is not popular in sysadmins community. Android is more democratic in prices and it is Linux, so its possibility are near unlimited
Version 1: start/stop/restart VM + general statistics
Version 1.5: remote control + logs (VM and host)
Version 2: VM configuration (create/delete/modify)
Version 2.5: template/iso
Version 3: host configuration options
Version 3.5: storage/backup
Version 4: clustering and advanced options
I would use an iPad app more than an iPhone app, but the iPhone app would be great in an emergency.. What Christoff said above is a great start. I'd like a consolidated page where you could see usage meters on all my VM's to monitor processor/ram utilization.
ChristOff has some good suggestions and rugby makes a good point, that a tablet would be more useful than an phone.
I would only want to use this from a phone if that is all I had access to.
Version 2 on ChristOff's list is about where I would find this useful for an emergency.
I did not see live/offline migration mentioned explicitly but I do feel that is very important feature for an emergency situation, nodes do fail from time to time.
On the topic of mobile access, it would be nice to simply start by tapping into something like RRDGraphs or other visuals to provide server status updates, network health, performance, logs etc. nice visuals...
