    First of all I would like to thank the Proxmox team for the great software and the nice community they built. I'm using a custom hook script (hookscript.pl) to manage VMs on a system with various GPUs passed through. The first motivation to do so is to avoid a VM (which requires a GPU) being...

    Mock API in (docker) container?

    Are there any plans to make the needed modifications on the config files located at /etc/pve/qemu-server to support ignition instead of cloud-init available via the API? This would pretty helpful to get Flatcar Linux vm's provisioned by using one of the terraform providers.
