ProxMox Notes


Post-Install Tasks

Disable/remove the annoying "no subscription" message that pops during login

Visit https://free-pmx.pages.dev/tools/free-pmx-no-subscription/ and install the package located there.

Set up notification emails

Datacenter > Notifications

Set up remote syslogging

apt update && apt -y install rsyslog

Once installed, edit /etc/rsyslog.conf and add the following section to the bottom; provide the proper IP address where noted:

# Remote syslog config
*.info;daemon.notice;authpriv.* @<log aggregator IP>:514

Install lshw

apt update && apt -y install lshw

Useful Notes and Tips

CLI command qm is your friend. List/manipulate VMs and such with this utility.

Enable remote VNC login ability to ProxMox guests

Edit the file - /etc/pve/local/qemu-server/<VMID>.conf

Add args: -vnc 0.0.0.0:77 to the end of the file (choose a unique number after the : for each guest)

A VNC connection to the guest is now possible by specifying the host IP address and the port chosen (“5977” in the example above).
