Hey Tim! About that time I also started with Proxmox for private virtualisation! I really enjoy your videos (started with Rancher) and I must say I am enjoying so much that I am rewatching all videos just for kicks! Keep it up!

Tim, you are the best. Started following you after you posted the video on Proxmox on a NUC, totally great idea. electricity prices are crazy these days. Thank you for great content.

New to the Homelab world, your videos are spot-on perfect!

You're awesome Techno Tim. Straight to the point and on point with the visual aids.

I love your videos as they are super helpful. My one ask would be to include some kind of pre-requisite list or previous tutorials references to makes sure I have everything required to follow along for the more in-depth videos.

Techno Tim,
Thank you, a Newbie, newb, noob, noobie, n00b here!!!!
I was stuck and now knowing to SSH and go thru the insecure notices then I saw your video and BAAM I am ON now on my own PROXMOX Virtual Environment! Keep the videos coming!

Amazing Tech, keep it up, well done mate.

For anyone who, like me, only find their thumb drives when they're not looking for them:
Downloading the Proxmox iso on a rooted android phone and then using DriveDroid to boot from the iso on the phone, worked just fine.
Oh, and also, your videos are awesome Tim. I'm learning so much! :)

If anyone is having grub errors on boot. Flash the usb with Etcher instead of rufus

I'm building my first homelab using a mini pc so.. I will need to review all of you videos! hehe

Great content! I would love an in-depth video on Proxmox firewall setup as there are none on YouTube. The forums show that many have problems understanding and setting up the three different firewalls in Proxmox and consequently have connectivity problems.

So my suggestion would be that you continue from where you left off in this video. Then set up the host firewall, the node firewall and then lastly the VM firewall so everything is secure, contained and working. Multicast is my main concern, as it really don’t work as it should.

As no one has done a video like it I’m sure it would generate a lot of views.

Great Video! Would love to see a Proxmox video from you showing how to format and provision extra internal drives for Virtual Machines.

Hi Tim, great video series I've really enjoyed it. Use VMware at work and loving that Proxmox fills the same role without the $$$... I have several Ubuntu servers that I've always wanted to virtualize. Been playing (breaking) with Proxmox building clusters, vm's, datastores, etc... so I have a thorough understanding before virtualizing my server environment. So my question is about when installing Proxmox you have the option to choose the filesystem (ext3 ext4 xfs or zfs). I am familiar with ext3 and 4 and have read up a little bit about xfs and zfs (just an FYI, I understand the raid levels associated with zfs), but what is the ramifications of choosing each of these for Proxmox...? Also, what is the default filesystem that is used if one isn't chosen and you take the defaults when installing? And lastly if you were to use different versions within a cluster what are the ramifications?More info: Currently I'm using Dell Optiplex 7040's with single disks but planing on buying a couple used PowerEdge servers.

Thank you for your great videos and technical insight! I run molecular dynamics simulations and I finally have a virtual machine that matches a physical machine! WSL, Hyper-V, VMware, etc have all been performance disappointments. Proxmox gives me the flexibility to install new VMs for special projects instead of using a physical machine! Bravo!

[fotografm]

That worked fine ! Thank you for your tutorial :-) I would love it if you would make a tutorial showing how to install Jitsi meet on Ubuntu server running on Proxmox or on Proxmox direct. (please please please).

Thanks for sharing, very usefull, would be nice if you consider making a episode with proxmox storage / Disk´s when to choice directory LVM, NFS, Cifs, and format / mounting disk´s etc. Happy youtube
