I've somehow removed some critical apt services from the Proxmox instance.

I'm running 4.3? ish, and was trying to apt-get update.

It mentioned "ceph" was being held back, and then to get rid if of the issues I "apt-get remove ceph". It then removed all what looked to be very important services, which whatever I do do not want to go back... namely VE, VE manager etc.

The server boots and I can SSH to it, but all http front end has gone and all the servers I'm hosting under it.

=====

Update:

I ran : apt install proxmox-ve postfix open-iscsi
This install everything as I understand, and the server now boots with UI, and all my services show. But no access and no console.

On the top of the "no VNC" console. Spice and xterm are greyed out.
