Hi I am new to postgresql and percona in general. At work we recently configured postgres databases and to monitor I am looking at PMM solution. I tried installing using the manual method on one of our servers. Our network is heavily blocked and dont have access to public network. That is the reason why i did the manual method. Linux env is rhel 8.9 # **Deploying Percona Monitoring and Management 2 Without Access to the Internet** I followed above guide to install docker run --detach --restart always --publish 80:80 --publish 443:443 --volumes-from pmm-data --name pmm-server percona/pmm-server:3.3.1 088fd5aab0759521c54d62b2bf026fc9d9262f93d9bab677cefba36bc30a108f docker ps CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMES 088fd5aab075 percona/pmm-server:3.3.1 “/opt/entrypoint.sh” 7 seconds ago Up 6 seconds (healthy) 0.0.0.0:80-\>80/tcp, 8080/tcp, 0.0.0.0:443-\>443/tcp, 8443/tcp pmm-server however when i try to access using browser.. it says connection refused even telnet returns same. Any way to troubleshoot this? telnet haeitoemap01v 80 Trying 10.120.11.130… telnet: connect to address 10.120.11.130: Connection refused Same with 443 as well. Thank you ---

Hi, we changed the container ports for PMM in v3, so you should be binding to port 8080 and 8443. docker run --detach --restart always --publish 80:8080 --publish 443:8443 --volumes-from pmm-data --name pmm-server percona/pmm-server:3.3.1 ---

Hi @Michael_Okoko Thank you so much for your response. It is working as expected now. I need one more favor.. Can you let me know if there is any guide on how to do pmm client agent install on db server offline? Our servers dont have internet access and I need to install manually. Thank you ---

What is the recommended backup procedure for the pmm server install? Just incase if server crashes how can we make sure we can restore the pmm-server without redoing all over. ---
