Proxmox VE is a complete, open-source server management platform for enterprise virtualization. It tightly integrates the KVM hypervisor and Linux Containers (LXC), software-defined storage and networking functionality, on a single platform. With the integrated web-based user interface you can manage VMs and containers, high availability for clusters, or the integrated disaster recovery tools with ease.

Not finding a lot of info on using Proxmox import wizard to extract VMs from an ESXi free license host. I can add the host as storage and see the VMs but it looks like it's failing afterwards due to possibly some kind of rate limit error? But I know the free version API is either closed or not available. Any ideas? Thanks!

Went through pve update today and had a message saying

Removable bootloader found at '/boot/efi/EFI/BOOT/BOOTX64.efi', but GRUB packages not set up to update it! Run the following command:

echo 'grub-efi-amd64 grub2/force_efi_extra_removable boolean true' | debconf-set-selections -v -u

Then reinstall GRUB with 'apt install --reinstall grub-efi-amd64'

To anyone facing this message: don’t forget! See here in the Proxmox forums

I recently needed to set up Tailscale in an AlmaLinux 9 LXC container running on my Proxmox 8.2 server. Following the official instructions from Tailscale's RHEL 9 guide and even trying their Linux install script, I ran into some issues. The main problem turned out to be missing TUN device support in the LXC container.

I had to edit the LXC container configuration on the Proxmox host:

nano /etc/pve/lxc/<container-id>.conf

And add these lines:

lxc.cgroup2.devices.allow: c 10:200 rwm

lxc.mount.entry: /dev/net/tun dev/net/tun none bind,create=file

Here is the article in case is useful for someone else.
