Proxmox for Enterprises: Imagine DRS-Like Guest Load Balancing!

ProxLB automatically rebalances VMs & Containers across a Proxmox cluster based on memory, CPU, and local disk usage, and can suggest the best nodes for further automation within CI/CDs. It supports maintenance mode, affinity and anti-affinity rules, and integrates seamlessly with the Proxmox API and ACL system. No SSH, just pure API! The best - it's free & #opensource

I love #PocketID, a light weight #selfhosted #OIDC using only #Passkey.

After using it for several months with an LXC installation using Proxmox Helper Scripts, I noticed that the service runs as root. I also learned that a VM installation is more secure than an LXC. This article will guide you through installing Pocket-ID as a non-root service on Debian. Additionally, there's an upgrade script included.

Okay, so maybe the Debian installer didn’t include microcode by default? Or maybe I screwed it up when setting up that server? Or it broke over an update?

But, surely, if you were using an appliance like Proxmox for virtualization, such a system would have microcode updates enabled by default, right?

I have bad news for you.

You should probably check all your servers and OSes to see if microcode updates work!

Proxmox in Enterprises: I'm often asked, 'Can we use our Active Directory, LDAP, or OIDC with Proxmox?' Yes, you can!

Let's have quick dive into installing and configuring Authentik and configure Proxmox VE to use OIDC as an additional authentication realm.

My wifey approved #homelab had to move...

The reason is easy - you can probably already guess that there might be some thermal problems raising on the left picture. It resulted into permanently spinning & annoying fans. Also the temperatures went a way too high. So, easy solution - everything moved into a metal shoe rack under my working desk. From ~80°C CPU temperature it dropped to ~65°C without spinning fans.

From #VMware to #Proxmox VE: Step-by-Step Escape Plan
#ProxmoxVE has become a popular platform because of its #opensource nature. Using the built-in import tool, they go through the steps for migrating a #virtualmachine from a standalone VMware #ESXi server to Proxmox Virtual Environment.
You can shift workloads with minimal downtime and disruption by following the right preparation steps: verifying compatibility, cleaning up VMware Tools, and configuring import settings.

I have no IT background. Just like to tinker. Started running #fedora kde plasma on my laptop. Ran some VMs. Just installed #proxmox on a mini PC. Latest accomplishment: #tailscale. Just getting by with YouTube videos and searches, but having fun mixed with frustration. I don't interact much here. Still, I wanted to shout out my excitement into the "abyss".
