Daemon Status
What each daemon status tag means and how to resolve issues.
Scanopy monitors daemon health and displays status tags in the UI. A daemon with no issues shows no tag. When problems are detected, a colored tag appears next to the daemon name indicating the most important issue.
Status Reference
| Status | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Healthy | Running current version, communicating normally |
| Standby | Plan doesn't support DaemonPoll mode |
| Unreachable | Server cannot reach the daemon |
| Deprecated | Daemon version is no longer supported |
| Outdated | Newer daemon version available |
Standby
Purple tag. The daemon is registered but won't run jobs because your current plan doesn't support DaemonPoll mode.
How to resolve:
- Upgrade to a plan that supports DaemonPoll
- Switch the daemon to ServerPoll mode — see Installing a Daemon for mode details
Unreachable
Red tag. The server cannot reach a ServerPoll daemon at its configured URL.
How to resolve:
- Verify the daemon process is running on the host
- Check that the daemon's configured URL is correct and reachable from the server
- Check firewall rules — the server must be able to connect to the daemon
- Restart the daemon and retry
See Daemon Troubleshooting for detailed connectivity debugging.
Deprecated
Orange tag. The daemon is running a version that is no longer supported. A deprecated daemon will not be allowed to connect to the server or run discovery.
How to resolve:
- Upgrade the daemon to the latest version immediately — see Installing a Daemon for installation steps
Outdated
Yellow tag. A newer daemon version is available. The current version still works but may be missing features or fixes.
How to resolve:
- Upgrade the daemon at your convenience — see Installing a Daemon for installation steps
Healthy
No tag is shown. The daemon is running a current version and communicating with the server normally.
Status Priority
When multiple statuses apply, the UI shows the highest-priority one:
Standby > Unreachable > Deprecated > Outdated
The Home tab shows all active statuses across your daemons.
Troubleshooting
If a daemon shows an unexpected status:
- Check daemon logs for errors or connection failures
- Verify connectivity between server and daemon (for ServerPoll daemons)
- Upgrade the daemon if Deprecated or Outdated
- Review your plan if a daemon is in Standby
