Great job!
Can you make an orderly boot for containers too?

WoW! Great work!

Do you think can I upgrade from 2.0 easily?
(is an upgraded 1.9 without grub update...)
 
Great! Thanks a lot for the startup-shutdown feature!
And the bug-fix for LVM snapshots!

Upgrading from 2.0 to 2.1 worked without any issues.
 
Thanks for the update. I upgraded from 2.0 to 2.1 using apt-get update && apt-get upgrade, I see the version changed in the management webpage but I can't see the new options (start/shutdown order) only "start at boot". Can this problem be related to the fact that I had a VM running at the time of upgrade? (It was the firewall and I couldn't shut it down because without it I can't reach internet - well, not without modifying whole network settings).
 
try reloading the admin gui (browser reload)

Hi, sorry for the late reply. I tried reloading, deleting temporary internet files etc but only the VM has the new options (start/shutdown order, delay etc)... the CTs still have only "start at boot".
 
Yes, read the wiki page.
 
Hi, I don't know how I skipped the note regarding CTs :) Thank you for your response.
 
Problem upgrade 2.0 -> 2.1

seems you run an unsupported mix of packages - e.g. linux-image-2.6.32-5-amd64 is not part of a Proxmox VE system and obviously, the script does not know your customization.
