Architecture
MeshCentral joins aproxy and backend. It uses local data directories plus Docker volumes for MongoDB/configuration and backups.
Installation
Current deployment source is missing. Reconstruct Compose from docker inspect, validate backup paths, and test in isolation before recreation.
Configuration
- Data:
/root/meshcentral/data:/opt/meshcentral/meshcentral-data - User files:
/root/meshcentral/data/user_files:/opt/meshcentral/meshcentral-files - Docker volumes:
/data/db,/data/configdb,/opt/meshcentral/meshcentral-backups - Restart policy:
always
Operational Procedures
docker logs --tail=200 meshcentral
docker inspect meshcentral
docker restart meshcentral
Back up all bind mounts and named volumes. Confirm agent connectivity and one remote session after maintenance.
Troubleshooting
- Agent disconnects: check public route, port
8086, certificates, and server URL. - Database errors: check MongoDB volumes and capacity.
- Missing files: verify bind-mount ownership.
