In the final episode of LearnLinuxTV’s Proxmox VE tutorial series, we explore the concept of high availability. This will ensure that our most important virtual machines are always running, even if one of the nodes in our cluster stops responding.
Setting up a Proxmox VE cluster enables you to benefit from multiple servers to share load between, and also gives you access to live migration. In this video, we’ll create our very own cluster and add two additional Proxmox VE servers.
Shared storage enables you to set up a single storage repository, and provide access to that repository from multiple servers. If you eventually set up a Proxmox cluster, then shared storage gives you even more flexibility. In this video, you’ll see the process of setting up NFS shares in a NAS (TrueNAS used as an example) and then adding those shares to Proxmox VE.
Setting up a separate network for your virtual machines is a great idea, especially since that allows you to segregate your management network. In class 13 of LearnLinuxTV’s Proxmox series, we’ll set up a new network and you’ll see how to set up your virtual machines to use it.
LearnLinuxTV’s Proxmox full course aims to get you up to speed with all the finer points of Proxmox Virtual Environment. In video #12, we take a look at the Command-Line interface. The basics of both the qm and pct commands are covered, so by the end of the video you’ll be able to manage your cluster with or without a user interface.
LearnLinuxTV’s Proxmox full course aims to get you up to speed with all the finer points of Proxmox Virtual Environment. That effort continues in the eleventh episode, which goes over the integrated firewall within Proxmox. By the end of this video, you’ll be able to deploy firewall rules within your own Proxmox cluster.

Backing up your virtual machines and data is extremely important, yet something that quite a few administrators don’t spend enough time on. In this video, I’ll walk you through the backup and snapshot options that are available within Proxmox.
The process of launching a Windows virtual machine on Proxmox is a bit more involved when compared to launching a Linux VM, but in this video, I’ll go over the entire process to make it easy. Follow along with me, and you’ll have your own Windows VM running on Proxmox. This method covers both Windows 10 and Windows Server.
Welcome back to LearnLinuxTV’s full course on Proxmox Virtual Environment! In class #9, we’ll look at how user management is structured, and we’ll walk through the process of creating several accounts. Also, we’ll take an initial look at groups and permissions as well.
Welcome back to LearnLinuxTV’s full course on Proxmox Virtual Environment! In class #8, we look at the process of converting a container into a template, that can then be used as a basis for launching additional containers.
