    Proxmox VE 4.0 beta1 released!

    just curious, if you depricated openvz in favor of lxc, why the custom kernel?

    Proxmox VE 4.0 beta1 released!

    this is worth celebrating! (or at least the stable release) are there any changes to the rest api or pvesh for kvm users? we dont use containers. our tools ssh to the host and run pvesh commands.

    debian question: installing latest pve-kernel-3.10.0-N

    making a setup script (ansible playbook) for pve nodes, and want to install the latest pve-kernel-3.10.0. theres no package called pve-kernel-3 or 3.10, so is there a way script the installation of the latest of that series?

    isnt that the point of cloning a template? just make a blank vm how you like, then right click on it and make template you can script the process like this (all are pvesh commands), the reference is here, http://pve.proxmox.com/pve2-api-doc/ create /nodes/prox1/qemu -vmid 101 -virtio0...

    how do you keep a single package up to date from repository not in your apt sources?

    Re: how do you keep a single package up to date from repository not in your apt sourc i was not clear. i want my updates to be from the stable repositories instead of backports. except that one package. otherwise, a backported newer version other packages can get pulled in. like i said, in this...

    how do you keep a single package up to date from repository not in your apt sources?

    Re: how do you keep a single package up to date from repository not in your apt sourc dont want newer versions of other packages. its not a big deal, since i dont think they'll hurt. but the system works well as it is, so i dont want to change it.

    how do you keep a single package up to date from repository not in your apt sources?

    Re: how do you keep a single package up to date from repository not in your apt sourc i dont want anything else from backports, just that one package. its a temporary concern since the next version of proxmox should have it.

    how do you keep a single package up to date from repository not in your apt sources?

    to mount rbd volumes from the host, we get rbd-fuse from https://packages.debian.org/wheezy-backports/amd64/rbd-fuse/download anyone know a good way to query and pull the latest? dont want to include the repository because that could over ride other things proxmox depends on. thats just one...

    Semi-Dedicated system

    I think your looking for xen, or general purpose linux desktop (with a modern kernel) and libvirt.

    thanks. for the future, could you look into app armor? ubuntu already does this, so you could start there.

    mitigation for vulnerabilities in kvm and vnc?

    Backup of Proxmox Itself

    We dont. we use ansible, a configuration manager, so its easier to rebuild servers than restore from backup. proxmox is slightly more effort but still easy enough. ive been thinking of adding code to the installer to look for a config file or script in /proc/cmdline to make it easier. this...

    Needs for HA system

    Theres also network fencing if you have a decent managed switch, but thats really more of a while you wait for the power fencing hardware. exposing the management interface (ipmi, idrac) etc is a big risk. your giving console access to a production network. id only do that if theres no other...

    can you add rbd-fuse to proxmox repository?

    is wheezy backports supported? i only ask because rbd-fuse is in backports, but not in main wheezy. could you add rbd-fuse to the repository? it makes automated setup of template clones really easy. otherwise you have to edit the clone and then move_disk, which is slow.

    Moving from ESXi to Proxmox

    Yes, you can duplicate that NIC setup. guest nics have an option for vlan tag. Dont know much about storage. windows server should be fine. pfsense should as well, all the bsds work well in qemu/kvm. not familiar with freebpx. if it works well in vmware, should be fine in proxmox.
