    pve-firewall vs iptables/systemctl reporting discrepencies

    Proxmox newbie here. In my PVE server... 1. If the pve-firewall is running (with policy_in: DROP like it says below, why does iptables report no rules (ie: everything is "accepted")? 2. what does 'disabled' mean in pve-firewall status = disabled/running? (systemctl status pve-firewall.service...

    PVE subscription: monetary credit when upgrading from lower to higher plan?

    PVE subscription: can one get monetary credit when upgrading from lower to higher plan? eg: if I use a Standard Plan for 3 months and wanted to upgrade to a Premium Plan on the same PVE server (with one socket), would I get credited for the €398 (and pay only €796 - 398 = €398 for the upgrade)...

    Snapshots, templates, clones, backups: how do they all compare?

    Got it. So @Dunuin - why say "PVE has no own snapshotting"? Like you say, PVE "has" snapshotting under the conditions below, even if the features are not as rich as other software/systems. I'm not trying to be argumentative; rather, I'm just trying to understand what I'm missing. In any case...

    My `pct create` script: seeking feedback, have questions about `--storage`

    Thanks @fabian. What does mp volume refer to? Some reference to lvm-based multipathing (mp), perhaps? If so, why does your not mention multipathing specifically? It seems to me that multipathing is not an essential feature to the above discussion/concepts - but maybe I'm missing something?

    Snapshots, templates, clones, backups: how do they all compare?

    PVE has no snapshot capability "built in," is this what I'm reading from @Dunuin 's note? If so, how does one explain the following? $ qm snapshot 199 mytestsnapshot1 Qemu Guest Agent is not running - VM 199 qmp command 'guest-ping' failed - got timeout Logical volume...

    Snapshots, templates, clones, backups: how do they all compare?

    PVE newbie here. 1. How does the following wiki page apply to LXC Containers? https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/VM_Templates_and_Clones 2. There's no mention of "snapshots" in the above wiki page, even though PVE 6.2-11 seems to feature snapshot feature prominently over "template." Is this above...

    How to disable auto-updates of /etc/hostsname, /etc/resolv.conf (& maybe others)?

    PVE newbie here. How do I disable the following "auto-change-files upon startup" behavior? I have very-specific settings in /etc/hostname and /etc/resolv.conf (read: I know what I'm doing) in my Ubuntu 20.04 LXC container. PVE appears to be auto-changing values in these files upon every...

    My `pct create` script: seeking feedback, have questions about `--storage`

    Can someone characterize the difference in these 2 storage/filesystem-related parameters? Namely, why are there 2 different parameters for seems like the same or similar thing? --rootfs local-lvm:8 --storage local-lvm man pct does not initially shed much light on this. It reads...

    1. can anyone find problems or offer general feedback on the script below? (The IP addresses have been redacted. Said script seems to run fine in initial testing.) 2. I have questions about the --rootfs vs --storage options as noted in my post reply below. 3. Is there a collection of...
