    live migration: ram_save_setup failed: Input/output error

    for hardening, you can do something like DisableForwarding yes Match User root Address <<10.0.10.0/24,10.0.20.0/24>> DisableForwarding no AllowTcpForwarding yes X11Forwarding no AllowAgentForwarding no PermitTunnel no (replace network address by your proxmox management subnet)

    live migration: ram_save_setup failed: Input/output error

    Same here :) EDIT: Also, when you are using veeam, backup fails with general error Failed to connect the NBD server to the hypervisor host So let's it write here, so others can find it, since I did not google it anywhere, this can be root cause.

    Establishing Proxmox VE as a Cross-Platform Hypervisor with Full RHEL/EL9 Ecosystem Support

    ...sectors, RHEL is the baseline. These organizations rely on SELinux mandatory access controls, FIPS 140-3 certification, and kernel-level hardening that is natively integrated into the EL (Enterprise Linux) ecosystem. Proxmox’s current Debian-only stance creates a "silo" that prevents seamless...

    PDM install notes slightly askew

Pretty much, if you perform a Debian install with custom partitioning with a nod to hardening compliance on partitions then install PBS, it breaks unless you revert to the Debian shim/grub. PBS doesnt (didnt?) force a custom kernel install but...

    CIS - Ensure SUID and SGID files are reviewed

    Hello, As part of Proxmox Hardening I need to review the below binaries and make sure that SUID or SGID permissions are required. These were listed by some Debian 13 hardening audit script (https://github.com/ovh/debian-cis/tree/master | 6.1.13_find_suid_files.sh & 6.1.14_find_sgid_files.sh)...

    Proxmox hardening - Proxmox iso vs Debian iso?

    Hi all, author of the hardening guide here. Thanks for bringing this up and sorry for seeing this post so late. Quick clarification, my guide is not saying you cannot or should not use the Proxmox ISO. Maybe I have to adjust the wording there more clearly? For most setups, the Proxmox ISO is...

    How to get multiply VLAN to work with Proxmox?

    ...easy access to other systems. It’s the same principle as using AppArmor, which confines applications to a defined set of resources via policy profiles to limiting what files, capabilities, and system functions they can access. Overall, it’s about hardening both the network and application access.

    Proxmox hardening - Proxmox iso vs Debian iso?

    This is most likely because, as far as I know, Proxmox is not designed for multi-tenancy, and it’s also not really supported in that sense, at least not multi-tenancy as VPS providers like Hetzner, DigitalOcean, or Linode implement it with full self-service portals, strict tenant isolation, etc...
