Proxmox Virtual Environment Complete Course Part 1 - Getting Started

[@canopus5498]

the timing couldn‘t have been more perfect for me

[@edricusty2682]

Same. Started Proxmox a week ago lmao Bless him

[@szymonsko6302]

i can say that for me it is 6 months too late :( i had to google everything alone.. but i can say that i like proxmox ;) so it was not a waste of time... now I am deep in proxmox api

[@RoboticParanoia]

Same here. And for what I saw in this introduction video, this course will as complete (or even more) than a paid official certification. At least a Microsoft one, the crap world I'm abandoning because windows now isn't only bad, it's also Spyware, adware and bloatware.

[@LeftyPem]

Same!

[@harryvendryes]

Jay, you're a natural teacher. Voice and delivery are perfect. I can tell you spend large amounts of time producing these videos. Not just a person who switches on the camera and rolls live for an hour before lunch. Only DistroTube matches your level of thought and professionalism in producing properly paced videos.

[@teomcam8635]

Sir, you are a legend. You make Linux so easy and do not leave gaps. Meticilous planning and not leaving students somewhere in the middle by skipping some important details. Best Linux channel on KZbin.

[@wekiwa7055]

Our hero Jay!!! Been waiting for this series!!

[@Dartoras]

Crank the speed to 1.5 or 2 this guy is one of us!!

[@sairampv1]

loved that we have such awesome individuals out there who are helping so many newbies like me

[@PiereWoehl]

Finally someone who does it, Im still gathering knowledge to do it in german audience. NICE

[@lifeguard8four]

Thank you so much for this instruction. I've been dragging my feet getting my server up and running, but my buddy wants to build his own and I went down the rabbit hole again. I've known about proxmox being in the industry, so I was just perusing and happened on your videos. I am fortunate they're are passionate people like yourself who nerd out about all things computers like I do. You've got a fan, Jay, keep up the wonderful and impactful work you do!!👍🏻

[@talli_hur]

Hi, I would like to thank you for your way of talking and explaining everything, it was very clear for me to understand what you say...

[@bokami3445]

Thoroughly enjoying this series of videos. I've poked about with Proxmox but end up getting frustrated and overwhelmed with it and reverting to just using Linux on bare metal. These lessons are helping put things into perspective. Thank you

[@aytviewer2421]

Sometimes things in life align and that's exactly what the timing of this video if for me! Thanks and looking forward to the series. My goal is to create a complete local environment for a web development server which will mimic the production environment that I will have on the web once I get closer to being ready to deploy. I admit, setting up the clustering and backup servers is something that I am a little intimidated about and can't wait to accomplish. Thanks!

[@fvgoya]

Learning Proxmox from you will be awesome!! You always delivery more then we expect.

[@CristianHeredia0]

perfect timing, I'm installing proxmax in my homelab next week

[@mercury1fatalshadow]

I'm already loving this series, and I've only watched the intro. Major kudos for having a course outline so everyone knows what they're getting into before diving in.

[@danielgx83]

totally free course , what a champ you are , thank you!!

[@kapurar]

As always, your tutorials are the best more comprehensive on any subject that you present on. Thank you! Looking forward to going through this tutorial.

[@crypt0f0x98]

First time seeing your video's I love your attitude, how informative and knowledgeable you seem. I'm watching the playlist this is my first video i'm watching of you.

[@nobodix]

The host's/trainer's didactical and rhetorical skills are really excellent. Can't tell too much about the content yet, but it seems he mentions all possible pitfalls. If this series continues in this way, then I can but be jealous of everyone who has the possibility to experience him in training first hand.

[@AdrianDantas]

Thanks for publishing the full course for free! You are awesome!

[@saviodsouza718]

2 suggestions 1. A video on proxmox backup server. Attaching pve to pbs for backups, etc 2. Ansible and proxmox. If you have tried working on it....

[@fenix144]

I have a conundrum. On one end I'm tempted to run it on my main rig cause it's an absolute war machine. On the other it is an absolute war machine. So I'm prolly going to install it on a well specced mini pc.

[@axn40]

I am setting up my homelab, and differents of your videos have been every usefull. I thus decided to start the full course :)

[@nrnugteren]

12:39 Just like to add that - at least in the current version (Proxmox 8.1+) - it ís possible to install Proxmox on a machine without virtualization support. It will simply not allow you to create and/or run Virtual Machines on it, but containers work fine. I successfully tested a container deployment with OpenVPN on an old laptop without Virtualization support.

[@kevinshumaker3753]

Nice, but personally, and the order I'm watching them, is 1,2, 3, 14, maybe 13, then back to 4 to get the nitty-gritty setup understanding, because you want to understand the storage setup options before you start doing VMs and Containers. I'll post updates here as I go through it. I am a Level 3 IT Help Desk professionally, and am tgrying to broaden my horizons from VMWare, VirtualBox, M$ Hypervisor, KVM and others. Thank you for the effort.

[@peteallennh]

Really looking forward to this series!

[@echovisionlab]

Holy Molly. This is really helpful for a guy like me who just started to run 3+ nodes. Thank you for the tutorial :)

[@austinfarley4971]

Thank you for this. i was going to go vsphere with their personal development license in the homelab, but at work we just got our renewal and it is 4x more than it was last year. So Broadcom is killing me and I thought I'd try something i'm not used to for once :)

[@NikhilArya-d3m]

your way is simple, you make it easy to learn, i will really appreciate that you make a tutorial on pfsense

[@lpfigue]

The value here is amazing. Thank you a lot forr this.

[@vash469]

Omg this is gonna be great I can't wait for the rest.

[@yahtzee1990]

Thank you so much for your work!

[@LearnLinuxTV]

You’re very welcome

[@cvjoint2164]

I feel like a pro after watching the linux series, looking forward to this next adventure. Thanks as always for everything you do Jay!

[@4g242]

This was very helpful, Thank you very much!

[@MichaelBruce1971]

Thank you for doing this. I'm trying to learn proxmox by installing it and this is definitely going to help. Thank you Thank you Thank you.

[@Rickety3263]

Yay! Please cover dedicated corosync networks in an HA cluster... and talk about considerations of whether additional failover hosts should be configured.

[@LearnLinuxTV]

I might have to do that in a stand-alone video, the entire series already wrapped filming last month.

[@nevoyu]

Ooh excited for this one!

[@samiramir91samor78]

Thank you for the hard work

[@pawelk.8325]

I have proxmOX on my Terminal HP T620. Its works!

[@inetregsameer]

wonderful series

[@woxit6107]

Thanks for your time and effort.

[@maxva6245]

Good videos. Very informative. Many thanks.

[@motranimohammed9307]

thanks; you are a world

[@danbrown586]

Looking forward to the rest of this course. I've been running a three-node Proxmox cluster (initially three nodes of a Dell C6100, just recently upgraded to a C6220) for a few years, but given the length of the lessons, I expect I'll pick up some useful tips.

[@samsh0-q3a]

Jay, you rule, I can sit through Luke Smith doing a tutorial on some minimalist software and mocking emacs, or rice my configs after watching Distrotube but it always comes back to Jay and he's the reason I fly through the terminal like a linux expert only after a couple of months binging his content lol. Love that you do this for free Jay, and done so professionally! You've become somewhat of a hero in my eyes over the last year and a half lol Siiigh.. and now you've finally talked me into turning my wimpy little file server into a proxmox beast.

[@Monarchias]

Your reaction for my past time search on your YT channel (here!), on this subject is pretty accurate! In less then 24 hours later of that search here i am again, and this is a positive confirmation on that search. Pretty accurate! Yeah. HINT for an extra episode. As you went through the episodes i recognized something what might missing from this series. You create. And we will create! But! Why no one removes, deletes VM, container, partition, disk size (shrink or extend), disk, Zfs, and all in between? So, in an Extra Episode, i could watch an incremental build. You have 1 drive, you buy additional one, additional 2, 3, 4. How to manage that proxmox without starting over from scratch, just because you bought 2 extra drive. For example. You know, variations! Sounds as a good stuff to fill an episode with it? I plan to expand! ;) Thank you for everything!

[@aytviewer2421]

I can relate to this exact topic. I added an SSD and an HD to my Proxmox server last week and for the life of me I could not figure out how to correctly get the system to recognize them and make it available through the web ui. I did find some instructions on how to do it from the command line, but heavens sake this should be possible through the web ui one would think.

[@Monarchias]

@@aytviewer2421 Hi. In your case if the drives are empty, and detected by the Bios, they should appear in the disk section. Even if not empty should be listed. If that is the case. But yes,i feel your pain. Luckily proxmox is also a command line learning curve as i see. ;)

[@panoshountis1516]

Awesome work!

[@New_Identity]

Yeeeeeesssss. Thank you. Haven't watched yet but can't wait!

[@gpap35]

A much needed course, well done.

[@arntodd7226]

actually im running proxmox in external drive usb 3 and wonder what dificulties i find in future, decided to check posibilietes, will see. now its time to watch part 2

[@asdf51501]

Subbed, because I’m soon going to be installing proxmox 7 on my threadripper box. 😀👍🏻 My purpose in doing so is at first to bang around in it and set up VMs to look at different Linux distros, and later to look at replicating some kind of web environment in order to learn more about other things (nginx for one, containers for another, and so on). Good stuff.

[@santospoland]

This is amazing. Thank you for putting this together. This is going to be great. Will learn here and then figure out if I should set one of these up. Heard good things but this looks like a serious course. Wow!

[@anwar.shamim]

love this course, great resource

[@israelpel]

pretty good video. Now let's go to learn with this material. thanks

[@applemodus]

Thanks for the video

[@DeLordBishop]

Hey Jay your videos have been really helpful, thank you for doing this. May I suggest adding network booting like PXE and maybe even how to use a FOG server? I would like to deploy something similar in a third-world country.

[@sankalpswami3335]

Jay, you are awesome!

[@FreedumbHS]

This is amazing content!

[@accessdevelopingzone7603]

If possible to Migrate VM from VirtualBox or Physical PC to Promox, if possible and how to do that Step by Step.

[@naylo44]

You dropped multiple episodes??! Awesome!!!

[@dwaynearthur1476]

Just what I've been looking for !

[@jc.daguila]

Thanks a lot!

[@karlfanega3275]

Exactly what I need. Amazing.

[@ricardokullock2535]

I think proxmox could support the channel ;D

[@Deyzze]

Video starts here1:33

[@le_travie7724]

Thank you for this.

[@neccros007]

Do you have a episode that covers converting a bare metal Windows install into a VM on Proxmox??? I am looking to use a HP Mini for Proxmox

[@bkrateku]

Sweet. We’ve been on Proxmox for several years, but my old boss setup and we still aren’t 100% familiar with everything he setup, including this. I’m pretty good I guess, but that might be highly subjective. lol More of a “ok, this is broken, how do I fix it?” method of learning. But looking forward to this.

[@ebaystars]

Thanks indeed, I am so grateful for finding this course, phew, PS I like the Buddhas in the background ! I am in Thailand and just bought a cheap IBM 3550 M2 and hey presto it booted to ProxMox - (without me screwing anything up I was lucky it's already resident ) --- so I guess I havea head start for 60 bucks!!!

[@2u263]

👏👏👏👏Thank you

[@samuelitooooo]

13:43 I was one of them (well, before I considered myself part of the Linux community lol). A laptop I have came with 32-bit Windows 7, but none of the system info that I can access in Windows indicated whether my *CPU* can run 64-bit. I had to learn to Google the CPU itself, an Intel Atom, to finally see that, oh snap, actually I can install 64-bit Linux, and I don't have to despair about Ubuntu dropping support for 32-bit OSs!

[@billygilbert7911]

This is awesome Jay. I recently got a R710 for free. Can't wait to dive in over the next few weeks.

[@udayarpandey3937]

Great series. Can you make a series on KVM or oVirt? Thank you!

[@ClaudiuC]

Looking forward to your Proxmox VE shared storage, clustering and HA videos.

[@TradersTradingEdge]

WOW! What a great course series Jay. Thanks very much! I can't wait to build my homelab based on this series. Keep it up, your doing wonderful §8-)

[@aboods6688]

I love this. Thank you vey much!

[@KillSwitchI]

This is gonna be fun. Thank you very much.

[@NyekeuVictorTanguiNvt]

Cool thank you !

[@tennishistoryandresultsdat4540]

Pardon me if I'm asking about smth that is already there, but the video is long ) If you have computer A(say server, where proxmox is installed) and computer B(client). You installed some VM on A and running it from B. The question - which computer A or B provides resources(CPU/RAM) for VM?

[@gautamkrishnar]

Thanks!

[@fearlessknight1343]

Perfect! Planning on migrating from Unraid to ProxMox! Figured it was time for a bit more flexibility and to learn something new. Thank you! Subbed good Sir!

[@troyfred2562]

I love your content. Learned more from you in a few weeks than from years of "schooling". If you ever get a chance to toss one out, a video on how to integrate a smartcard with freeipa would kick ass (preferably Centos if at all possible). Love your stuff man. Bought the book :).

[@d.s.5157]

Should I install OS on hdd and VMs on ssd or other way around ?

[@ayylmao3209]

You rock Jay!

[@krjones91]

One of the things I was reading on the forums for Proxmox VE is that it can be really hard on non-enterprise SSD's. Has anyone experienced this? Are there any best practices for minimizing SSD wear and tear?

[@nsxtogo6044]

Awesome, Thank you very much for such a great Course.

[@z400racer37]

Thank you for your course! You saved my bacon this week! :)))

[@nabilpatel970]

Best Series I was waiting for it. But here's a question which I am having since last 3 or 4 months. "How to access the proxmox web ui over the internet using DDNS or port forwarding?" please give me answer.

[@lincolnclark302]

Awesome presentation....

[@karama300video]

This will be a nice video!

[@dulcisfate6060]

let's get this started. :D

[@vitusyu9583]

I am thinking of using my Windows 10 mini server to run Proxmox, is it possible to install Proxmox inside Windows 10?

[@TLOT203]

So if i completed and run a vm this will let me to access it from anywhere around the world

[@robertopontone]

well, finally 😄

[@devilxelloss]

Tip: play the video at x1.5 speed to save time.

[@paulmacgiollacaoine8619]

Great stuff...!!! thanks :)

[@charlesecurity38162]

please say again "i am coming from the future that why i am able to show you that "....you killed me ,nice video

[@cattips_]

Great video I want to run Roon at the same time as Home Assistant. Is it possible to run an instance of Windows at the same time as an instance of Linux in Proxmox?

[@raj.svc.google911]

Please do a course update on Peoxmox 8.0 that was released recently. Also, a course on PCI and GPU pass-through, particularly routing graphics+sound from a Linux VM directly to one of the monitors attached to the server machine, would be deeply appreciated.

[@davebilson]

Jay, could Proxmox be used to virtualise a desktop machine. I have a threadripper 1950x (16 cores and 32 threads) desktop and was wondering if it is viable to remove my Win 10 OS, install proxmox and then reinstall Win 10 as a VM, alongside other VMs and containers. I'd want to passthrough my existing GPU Nvidia 2080Ti. The motherboard I have doesn't support EEC memory, well it does but it runs in non EEC mode.

[@maherkhalil007]

How can I activate ssh on proxmox?
