    I have been very busy with my paid job so I have not had the time to finish the work. I hope sometime in the future I will get the needed time but since my current solution is no longer a burning platform (omnios has transcended to omnioce) the requirement is not imminent.

    sshd: PermitRootLogin no ?

    This is not an option since almost all proxmox operations requires root privileges. You can, however, disable login using password to the proxmox nodes since proxmox's access is certificate based.

    Fibre Channel SAN with Live Snapshot

    If you don't need live migration between nodes and HA you could create a local ZFS pool on LUN's presented to the node from the SAN. An experimental live migration method including local disks exists but is only available from command line.

    Meltdown and Spectre, special concerns for the virtualization industry

    Apparently Intel has no intention to change there CPU architecture to create a CPU without the Spectre vulnerability so they still intend to produce and ship CPU's which are broken by design: https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/1/21/192 Let us hope every review of Intel CPU's in the future are made with...

    Debian Kernel vs Ubuntu Kernel

    It's actually a very clever approach since the Ubuntu kernel used is the LTS branch providing 5 years of support. A kernel from Debian, at the time the decision was made (before Debian LTS), was only supported for the time a Debian stable was living plus 1 year. With current Debian LTS that...

    Debian vs Ubuntu LTS

    Something that everybody was not mentioning. When using Debian you are guarantied to always only use FOSS software which is not the case with Ubuntu.

    Meltdown and Spectre for Newbie

    It is a lot easier to simply do: sudo apt install intel-microcode, on every proxmox node since microcode patches must be applied on every reboot and not all patches can be applied to a booted system, eg. a boot is required. See https://wiki.debian.org/Microcode
