Hi,

I am a novice in proxmox.
I just installed 2 proxmox servers and used a whmcs module to connect with my billing software.

Used this doc to complete the installation:
http://www.docs.modulesgarden.com/Proxmox_VPS_For_WHMCS

After the installation, Vm won't boot.
I am trying to understand if the VM actually installed successfully. What I did was to put the iso file in the location "/var/lib/vz/template/iso" before I initiated the provisioning of server via whmcs module.

1) Is the iso location correct?
2) How can I create a VM by commandline specifying the iso file?

Sorry, if this is a simple question, but I could not find the answer yet.

Thanks!
 
An update...

I could create the VM from proxmox panel

https://ip_address:8006

Install the OS after pluging the cd-rpm and disk.
I could then create a template of the running VM in
/var/lib/vz/images/100/

I did gave the same iso details in the modulegarden proxmox plugin, but the VM wont start.

Error is :

root@-test:~# qm start 102
start failed: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.InvalidArgs: CPUShares value out of range
root@-test:~#


Anybody has any input, please do share.

Thanks!
 
I now understand that we will have to use the template for the automatic creation of the virtual servers. We cant use iso for this purpose.
I have managed to create the template.
Any idea what location the templates be placed so it can be used for creation of new servers?
