HI guys,
I recently started managing a proxmox aserver for my company with enterprise subscriptions. I have updating SYSTEM to version 8 and I would like to create an automatic mechanism that warns me of the availability of available updates to perform. Is there an ad-hoc configuration?
 
Hello @Pakino yes this can be done by configuring notifications via datacenter -> notifications.
I would recommend configuring a smpt-server with authentication and ssl. You can configure the system to send mails on apt update "updates" available.
 
I have mail setup and do receive (gmail) notification from backups, but none from updates.
 
I'm guessing that since I have:
Code: 
root@MINS-PRXMX:/# pvesh get /cluster/options
┌──────────────┬──────────┐
│ key          │ value    │
╞══════════════╪══════════╡
│ allowed-tags │ []       │
├──────────────┼──────────┤
│ description  │          │
├──────────────┼──────────┤
│ keyboard     │ en-us    │
├──────────────┼──────────┤
│ mac_prefix   │ BC:24:11 │
└──────────────┴──────────┘

I need this?
Code: 
pvesh set /cluster/options --notify package-updates=always

My /etc/pve/datacenter.cfg only shows the following:
Code: 
root@MINS-PRXMX:/# cat /etc/pve/datacenter.cfg
keyboard: en-us

As I pointed above, I believe this is the code:
Code: 
pvesh set /cluster/options --notify package-updates=always
Its good for cluster or single-node.
I haven't used it myself.
I'm assuming you're receiving normal gmail notifications on backups.
