Worker Connection

Panel relies on Worker to perform actions on a Node.

Connected state

A healthy Node should report Worker as connected. If Panel cannot communicate with Worker, Cell lifecycle operations on that Node will not complete normally.

Things to verify

  • Worker is running on the Node.
  • Worker is using the connection details expected by Panel.
  • DNS resolves correctly in both directions where required.
  • Firewalls allow the configured Worker traffic.
  • TLS configuration matches the hostname and connection method in use.
  • The Node clock is synchronised.

For diagnosis steps, see Worker connectivity troubleshooting.

HivePanel is open source software.
