Beszel Agent Binary

Hey All!

Has anyone installed Beszel Agent through the binary option on their host system? I am unable to as I think it wants to make files in the /opt directory which is read only even as su. Just wondering what the best practice would be for moving forward. I would prefer the binary option, as it is the only one that lets you do GPU monitoring, which would be really nice to have for my containers.

Thanks!

Best practice would be to create a feature request and ask for it to be imcluded in the base os. There’s no official way to add binaries, since scale is an appliance OS and it’s not supported to add additional software/binaries to it.

I’ve changed beszel-agent Dockerfile to use nvidia/cuda instead of scratch. Then created custom app in TrueNAS using yaml. Now I can see GPU utilization in beszel hub. I save snippets for myself of what I did alongside the image: alekspak/beszel-agent-nvidia (search docker hub as I can’t include links)

I’ve built one for the version of cuda on my TrueNAS server. If it’s the same for you, feel free to reuse.

O wow! Thank you! I will take a look. – It works perfectly, I appreciate the help!
