“SysAdmin Sean”
What a start of a week it’s been for me so again I apologize for not getting a better video ready sooner but I wasn’t expecting to take on a larger work load.
I am working on a big series of smaller Proxmox related videos to cover specific parts of the system from a testing sysadmin point of…

XCP-NG solid product easy to use
i went the way of proxmox for my homelab after the broadcom acquisition. if your only on a single host or a couple of hosts then proxmox is great. if you need some hyperconverged setup where VM's are dynamically loadbalancing in the background then esxi is still unfortunately king.
proxmox i've found to be far more involved, and i had to create scripts for things that were natively in the web-ui for esxi. For example I use an SR-IOV and setting all that up was very easy on esxi, with sticky mac addresses by default. With proxmox I need to basically create an on-boot script that does all of this, and I need to edit a config file where I define the mac addresses for each virtual nic.
It isn't all doom and gloom though, the performance of proxmox i've found to be better than esxi by quite a margin. My workloads would usually have my CPU sitting around 26% utilisation and this dropped to 13% – 16% post proxmox migration. I track power consumption and it appears that drop was around 5w in power too. Not much when running a 7950x lol but the cpu efficiency gains and latency gains are nice.
Thank you. It would be also interesting to see eventually about what you had in term of new experience on management side of things related to new role/promotion
