The server card
Clicking a machine in the fleet list opens its card. Nine tabs, each answering a different question.
| Tab | Answers |
|---|---|
| Overview | is this machine healthy and what is it doing right now |
| Marketplace | what it is listed for, and what it has earned |
| Platforms | will it pass the marketplace’s requirements |
| Hardware | what is actually inside it |
| Diagnostics | disks, services, logs, network measured from outside |
| Tuning | fan policy and power limit |
| Maintenance | maintenance windows, reboot, power off, driver |
| Agent | agent version, updates, and removal |
| Activity | what happened to this machine and when |
Overview
Section titled “Overview”Temperatures
Section titled “Temperatures”Two numbers per card, and they are not interchangeable:
- Core — reported by every GPU.
- Memory junction — on GDDR6X cards this runs roughly 20 °C hotter than the core.
A card whose core looks comfortable can still have memory close to its limit. This is why fan policy lets you pick which sensor to hold.
The card reports a duty cycle as a percentage. Two readings need interpretation:
automeans no fan reading at all — the driver controls the fans and does not report a duty cycle. It is not an error.stoppedat a low temperature is normal: most cards idle at zero RPM when they are cool enough. Flotera says so explicitly, with the temperature, rather than showing a scary zero.
Stopped fans while the core is hot is a different message, and it is one you should act on.
Power draw
Section titled “Power draw”What counts as this machine’s draw is something you choose, because there is no single honest answer:
| Source | What it counts |
|---|---|
| GPU cards only | the sum across the cards; the platform is not counted |
| Cards + fixed offset | the cards plus a constant for motherboard, CPU, drives and fans |
| Hardware power meter | a Tasmota wall socket on the machine’s LAN — the wall reading becomes the draw |
The meter is the most honest number for electricity, because it counts everything the machine actually pulls from the wall.
Hardware
Section titled “Hardware”What the agent found: GPU model and vendor, memory type and vendor, board brand, power components, disks, network. This is the tab to check when a card is not what the seller claimed, or when one machine in a batch behaves differently from its twins.
Activity
Section titled “Activity”A chronological record of what happened to this machine: commands you sent and their outcome, rentals starting and ending, configuration changes, going offline and coming back.
When something looks wrong, this is usually the fastest tab: it shows whether the machine received a command at all, and what it answered.
