WHAT IT DOES

What relocate_ha_resource does on Proxmox MCP Server

AI agents invoke relocate_ha_resource to trigger actions in Proxmox MCP Server. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call: builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.

RISK

Why relocate_ha_resource is rated High

Relocating an HA (High Availability) resource triggers an external infrastructure operation that moves a resource between nodes. This is not a simple data write but an execution of a cluster operation with significant side effects. It could cause service disruption if misused, hence high severity. It is reversible (can be moved back), so it doesn't qualify as Destructive.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs relocate_ha_resource safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Proxmox MCP Server, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For relocate_ha_resource, this is the rule to start with:

relocate_ha_resource Rate-limited

relocate_ha_resource stays usable, but rate-capped: a runaway agent can't fire it dozens of times a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

FAQ

Questions about relocate_ha_resource

What does the relocate_ha_resource tool do? +

Request relocation of an HA resource to a different node. It is categorised as a Execute tool in the Proxmox MCP Server MCP Server, which means it can trigger actions or run processes. Use rate limits and argument validation.

How do I enforce a policy on relocate_ha_resource? +

Register the Proxmox MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for relocate_ha_resource: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches Proxmox MCP Server. Nothing to install.

What risk level is relocate_ha_resource? +

relocate_ha_resource is a Execute tool with high risk. Execute tools should be rate-limited and have argument validation enabled.

Can I rate-limit relocate_ha_resource? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the relocate_ha_resource rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.

How do I block relocate_ha_resource completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for relocate_ha_resource. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.

What MCP server provides relocate_ha_resource? +

relocate_ha_resource is provided by the Proxmox MCP Server MCP server (gethosthewalrus/proxmox-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
