you might reconsider installing Proxmox on Debian 12 – I have done on all my installations and did not fail even once. Installing on Debian allows you i.e. to partition your disk as per you taste rather than as per Proxmox taste. But for sure it works perfectly. Just follow up the installation manual from PVE webpage.
VMs and docker containers on VMs are easy to backup or migrate because all data and mac address etc are all enclosed , the problem is with LXC container which most of the data is on the server it's self.
I also had this problem with the Proxmox 8.1 iso. I knew that Debian usually upgrades really nicely so my solution was to install the previous version of Proxmox and then update.
yep, the Scotti-Byte channel is definitely the go to for learning LXD/Incus. This is where I started, his videos are so clear and easy to follow.
When you migrated to different hardware on your second node did you change any of the VM or LXC options such as CPU type, virtio driver settings etc… I noticed performance improvements when I did so.
I trust, if you had replicated your storage per container/VM you could have migrated it without any problems?
Just picked up a minisforum ms-01 here and about to start the process of migrating my little nuc I have running my lab over to it.
Why are you running separated lxc containers for each docker app? Is there any purpose for that?
Since setting up 3x nodes Proxmox cluster out of N100 mini PCs – migration between nodes is a breeze. And if I need to do something on one of the nodes – other two will pick up and run all VMS while 3rd one is out of action. As soon as 3rd node is back up – VMs and LXCs getting. Oved back (HA and groups taking care of that automagicaly)
Every once in a while you come across something that you've never heard about, and your brain goes POP! This is one of those moments!
There are so many vids about setting stuff up, not much about maintaining and migrating, so props to that.
As always, awesome presentation.
Theres still so much to cover regarding Open Source in business use…… also noone seems to care except one state here in germany whos going all out on it rn migrating 30K PCs to LibreOffice…… Lets see how long it takes till they go back or how long till someone gets bribed by Microsoft to go back……
Noone has really done an in-depth video yet how to manage Linux systems on a big scale in a business, user management, update management, permission management, logkeeping, compliance, security u name it……
incus has gotten some buzz lately
So simple:
Install Proxmox on a different system and then simply move the drive to the system you need!
The last time I looked at an Webmin instance must have been about 15-20 years ago and looked in the PHP era very different. Back then it was considered to be not very security minded as in being unsafe to use on production stuff!
Now you got to buy more servers to fill out that screen.
