Proxmox defaults, set it and forget it

[improver]

Dear all,

I'd like to set some defaults within PVE, but neither the manual nor the forum provided info on this:

1. I want to have all VMs hard drives, created or reassigned, to be configured with
   
   "cache=directsync"
   
   When creating a VM,
   adding a HDD
   or detaching a disk and running "reassign Owner"
   
   the default cache policy kicks in
   
   "Default (No Cache)"
   
   Is there a way to adjust this policy setting to default to "Direct Sync"
   
   
   
   
2. within the user setting of the pve GUI (right top corner -> user@pve -> My settings)
   
   I'm able to set "noVNC Settings" to
   
   "Local Scaling"
   
   however, this setting does not survive a logout/login or a reboot.
   
   is there a way to set this permanently?

I'm fine using nano / vim to adjust any config.

As the title says, I'd like to "set it and forget it" and therefore I'm looking for a way that survives updates & upgrades.

thankfull for every hint!

Cheers

Hi improver, you can edit /usr/share/pve-manager/js/pvemanagerlib.js (search for noVNC and directsync) but your changes were gone after next pve update again.

Another workaround might be to (ab)use vm templates for this.
