Proxmox 8.0 Install

Sun, 23 Jul 2023 00:00:00 +0000

I’m normally a x.1 release type of sysadmin, but the increasing temptation of installing Proxmox 8.0 while I’ve got some time off, and the fact that I’ve got a cluster, so I can just move the VM’s around all adds up to thinking I’ll do that today.

Here’s how my system works. It consists of three HP-800 mini G2’s. pve-prod1 is a bit fancier - i7 6700T and 32GB, the other two are i5 6500T and 16GB. The production VM’s use the local SSD but backups go to the NAS. All the machines are currently running Proxmox 7.4. They are not clustered in the proper sense - I don’t need high availability, and I don’t want to run them all the time. pve-prod1 runs 24/7 and I just power up pve-dev1 when I’m working on something.
