What are cluster nodes?

Nimetu

In the OpenAdmin demo in the front dashboard a card with the title "Cluster Nodes" is displayed. What does it mean and how can I configure it? I haven't been able to find it in the documentation.

This feature was abandoned and is not production-ready. Use it for testing purposes only.
Setup Instructions:

Slave Server: Setup a clean installation of Ubuntu 24, other distros are not supported for slave servers.
Master Server: Set up SSH key-based authentication from the master to the slave server.
Create a User: Run the user creation command from the terminal, specifying the slave server’s IP and the path to the SSH key:
opencli user-create

The new user will be createad on the slave server and utilize its resources. However, all management is done from the master server.
You can host multiple users on a single slave server. They login from OpenPanel on the master, same as other local users.

If you encounter any any issues, post in the above github issue and I'll reopen it.👍

Thank you for the information! I think this would be a really nice feature to have production-ready as it enables the admin to manage all their users from just one site (especially if they have loads of nodes).
