Automated Proxmox Installation

[fbelelli]

Hi,
i'm getting hand in automated proxmox installation using assistant tool and answer file.

I'm trying to compile the answer file but i'm having some problems with [disk setup] section. In my normal manual configuration i've dev/sda and dev/sdb storage devices and i install Proxmo VE in a 32GB partition of dev/sda.
How can i indicate that in the answer file?

Thank you

This works for me

[disk-setup]
filesystem = "ext4"
lvm.swapsize = 0
lvm.maxvz = 0
disk_list = ['sda']

This works for me

[disk-setup]
filesystem = "ext4"
lvm.swapsize = 0
lvm.maxvz = 0
disk_list = ['sda']

This wii works when one disk available. What about multiple disks servers? The OP has /dev/sda and /dev/sdb, which disk is the correct 32GB?

i find this : https://pve.proxmox.com/pve-docs/chapter-pve-installation.html#advanced_lvm_options
dev/sda is divided into three partitions by default. I'm trying to study better this stuff.
@bkinigadner configuration not create root and swap partitions so has only data partition but i think this is not my case.

you can run in livecd shell:

proxmox-auto-install-assistant device-info -t disk

construct and test the filter:

proxmox-auto-install-assistant device-match disk ID_SERIAL='KIOXIA_KCMYXVUG1T60*'

and use in toml answer file:

filter.ID_SERIAL = "KIOXIA_KCMYXVUG1T60*"
filter.ID_MODEL = "Samsung*"
