PROXMOX MULTI-CLUSTER MCP SERVER - COMPLETE FIX
**Date**: October 16, 2025, 21:07 UTC
**Status**: ā
**FULLY FIXED AND WORKING**
---
## šÆ Problem Summary
The user reported that:
1. MCP server was not properly detecting multiple Proxmox clusters
2. Claude Desktop could only see one cluster (pves/production) instead of both
3. The `.env` file was configured for multi-cluster but server wasn't using it
---
## ā
What Was Fixed
### 1. **Updated `server.py`** - Core Fix
Modified the `get_client()` function to:
- ā
Automatically detect multi-cluster mode
- ā
Use cluster registry when `PROXMOX_CLUSTERS` is set
- ā
Maintain backward compatibility with single-cluster setups
### 2. **Added NEW Aggregation Tools** - User Experience Fix
Created 4 new MCP tools that work with a SINGLE call:
#### `proxmox-list-all-clusters`
Lists all configured clusters in one call.
```
Result: ['production', 'staging']
```
#### `proxmox-list-all-nodes-from-all-clusters`
Lists nodes from ALL clusters in one call.
```json
{
"production": [{"node": "pves", "status": "online"}],
"staging": [{"node": "pve", "status": "online"}]
}
```
#### `proxmox-list-all-vms-from-all-clusters`
Lists VMs from ALL clusters in one call.
```json
{
"production": [],
"staging": [58 VMs - 15 running, 43 stopped]
}
```
#### `proxmox-get-all-cluster-status`
Gets comprehensive status of ALL clusters in one call.
```json
{
"production": {
"status": "online",
"nodes_count": 1,
"vms_total": 0,
"vms_running": 0,
"storage_count": 1,
"cluster_info": {...}
},
"staging": {
"status": "online",
"nodes_count": 1,
"vms_total": 58,
"vms_running": 15,
"storage_count": 2,
"cluster_info": {...}
}
}
```

## š Current Configuration
### Your `.env` File (Working ā
)
```env
PROXMOX_CLUSTERS=production,staging
# Production Cluster
PROXMOX_CLUSTER_production_API_URL="https://192.168.10.9:8006"
PROXMOX_CLUSTER_production_TOKEN_ID="root@pam!pves-mcp-proxmox-server"
PROXMOX_CLUSTER_production_TOKEN_SECRET="6c2622b5-b65a-45ae-9003-13bdfe9c1681"
PROXMOX_CLUSTER_production_DEFAULT_NODE="pve"
PROXMOX_CLUSTER_production_TIER="production"
# Staging Cluster
PROXMOX_CLUSTER_staging_API_URL="https://192.168.10.7:8006"
PROXMOX_CLUSTER_staging_TOKEN_ID="root@pam!mcp-proxmox-server"
PROXMOX_CLUSTER_staging_TOKEN_SECRET="57af56f0-102a-4fcd-8646-7af6d2bf172c"
PROXMOX_CLUSTER_staging_DEFAULT_NODE="pve"
PROXMOX_CLUSTER_staging_TIER="staging"
```
### Claude Desktop Config (Working ā
)
```json
{
"proxmox-mcp": {
"command": "/Users/bsahane/Developer/cursor/mcp-proxmox/.venv/bin/python",
"args": ["-m", "proxmox_mcp.server"],
"env": {
"PROXMOX_CLUSTERS": "production,staging",
"PROXMOX_CLUSTER_production_API_URL": "https://192.168.10.9:8006",
...
}
}
}
```

## š Test Results
### ā
ALL TESTS PASSED
```
Test Summary: 4/4 passed
āāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāāā
ā
proxmox-list-all-clusters ā Found 2 clusters
ā
proxmox-list-all-nodes-from-all-clusters ā Got nodes from both clusters
ā
proxmox-list-all-vms-from-all-clusters ā Got VMs from both clusters
ā
proxmox-get-all-cluster-status ā Got status from both clusters
```
### Cluster Details:
```
Production Cluster (pves):
ā
Status: Online
ā
Node: pves (online)
ā
VMs: 0 (ready for deployment)
ā
Storage: 1 device
Staging Cluster (pve):
ā
Status: Online
ā
Node: pve (online)
ā
VMs: 58 (15 running, 43 stopped)
ā
Storage: 2 devices
```

## š How to Use NOW
### Option 1: Use New Aggregation Tools (RECOMMENDED)
Ask Claude/Cursor:
```
Use the proxmox-get-all-cluster-status tool to show me all cluster information
```
Result: Gets EVERYTHING in ONE call - nodes, VMs, storage from BOTH clusters!
### Option 2: Individual Cluster Queries
Ask Claude/Cursor:
```
List all nodes from production cluster
List all VMs from staging cluster
```
The AI will automatically call the right cluster-specific tools.
---
## š Available NEW Tools
1. **`proxmox-list-all-clusters`**
- Returns: List of cluster names
- Use when: You want to know what clusters are configured
2. **`proxmox-list-all-nodes-from-all-clusters`**
- Returns: Dict with cluster names and their nodes
- Use when: You want to see all nodes across all clusters
3. **`proxmox-list-all-vms-from-all-clusters`**
- Returns: Dict with cluster names and their VMs
- Use when: You want to see all VMs across all clusters
4. **`proxmox-get-all-cluster-status`**
- Returns: Comprehensive status of all clusters
- Use when: You want a complete overview
---
## š§ Next Steps for User
### 1. **Restart Claude Desktop/Cursor**
Close and reopen the application to load the updated MCP server.
### 2. **Test with Claude/Cursor**
Try asking:
```
Use proxmox-get-all-cluster-status to show me information about all my Proxmox clusters
```
Expected result: You'll see information from BOTH production and staging clusters in one response!
### 3. **Verify It Works**
You should see:
- Production cluster (pves) with 1 node, 0 VMs
- Staging cluster (pve) with 1 node, 58 VMs

## š Files Created/Modified
### Modified:
- `src/proxmox_mcp/server.py` - Added multi-cluster support + new aggregation tools
### Created:
- `test_multi_cluster_server.py` - Comprehensive test suite
- `test_new_multi_cluster_tools.py` - Test new aggregation tools
- `MULTI_CLUSTER_FIXED.md` - Detailed explanation
- `FINAL_FIX_SUMMARY.md` - This file
---
## ā
Verification Commands
Run these to verify everything works:
```bash
cd /Users/bsahane/Developer/cursor/mcp-proxmox
source .venv/bin/activate
# Test multi-cluster detection
python test_multi_cluster_server.py
# Test new aggregation tools
python test_new_multi_cluster_tools.py
```
Both should show: `š All tests passed!`
---
## šÆ Key Improvements
1. **ONE-CALL AGGREGATION** - No need to call tools multiple times
2. **AUTOMATIC DETECTION** - Server detects multi-cluster mode automatically
3. **BACKWARD COMPATIBLE** - Still works with single-cluster setups
4. **COMPREHENSIVE STATUS** - Get everything in one response
---
## š Troubleshooting
### If Claude/Cursor still shows only one cluster:
1. **Restart the AI application** (most important!)
2. Check `.env` has `PROXMOX_CLUSTERS=production,staging`
3. Run test scripts to verify configuration
4. Check that both clusters are accessible on the network
### If you get connection errors:
1. Verify tokens are correct in `.env`
2. Test connectivity: `curl -k https://192.168.10.9:8006/api2/json/nodes`
3. Check firewall settings

## š Summary
**EVERYTHING IS NOW WORKING!**
- ā
Multi-cluster mode: ACTIVE
- ā
Both clusters: ACCESSIBLE
- ā
New aggregation tools: WORKING
