Running Cockpit on DockHive
Smallest size
Cockpit needs at least a Micro HivePod (about $2 a month if it runs all the time). Smaller sizes can't be picked for it. It is billed by the hour while it runs, from your plan's included vCPU-hours first, and a stopped pod costs nothing.
Runs in the background
Cockpit has no web page of its own. It runs in the background in its HivePod, where you can open a terminal and read its logs.
Your data and backups
Cockpit's data stays on the pod's disk and survives restarts. HivePod backups include all of it, and restoring a backup brings back the same app with the same data.
