    Offline installation of proxmox

    A fun small catch 22 situation I managed to create. I've set up a PBS outside my network, and tried to backup my firewall which is running in a vm on PVE. That ended up with a 1 minute timeout trying to connect to the PBS....

    Things that needs to change

    Hello, I'm using pve on a couple of my own servers, but I'm about to put pve into production at work. There are a couple of things that I would liked to be different. 1) If you have a cluster with shared storage, it should be possible to start a "missing" guest on another host if one of the...
