The Harvester page provides a dedicated management interface for Harvester HCI clusters. All seven tabs are demo-only — no Engine API calls are made.
When the selected cluster is not a Harvester cluster, an info banner reading “Not a Harvester cluster” is displayed instead of the tabbed interface.

- Live migrate — move a running VM to another node
- Clone — create a copy of an existing VM
- Snapshot — capture point-in-time state
- Delete — with confirmation dialog
The VM table shows name, status, CPU/memory allocation, node placement, and IP address.Physical node management
View physical nodes in the Harvester cluster with:
- CPU and memory utilization
- VM distribution per node
- Storage capacity and usage
- Storage migration controls for rebalancing
VLAN network management
Create and manage VLAN networks backed by NetworkAttachmentDefinitions (NADs). Configure:
- VLAN ID
- Bridge interface
- IP pool ranges
- Network connectivity status
Point-in-time VM snapshots
Browse and manage VM snapshots. Each snapshot records the VM’s disk and memory state for rapid rollback or cloning.OS image management
Upload and manage OS images used for VM provisioning. Supports:
- ISO and qcow2 formats
- URL-based import
- Image status tracking (active, downloading, failed)
S3-compatible backup targets
Configure backup targets and manage VM backup schedules. Supports S3-compatible storage endpoints for off-cluster backup retention.Version management
View available Harvester versions and run preflight checks before upgrading. Preflight results highlight potential compatibility issues with current workloads and configurations.
