Hey there,
i wanted to run proxmox datacenter more flexible and decided to wrap it in a Container Image.
It does not use systemd as dependency and as far as i can tell it works just fine.
i am running my clusters inside of it right now.
check it out if this is of interest.
If i violated something, let me know, happy to learn if i went wrong
First of all, i like proxmox as it is an easy way to get people into virtualization.
It has community support and is mostly stable, but there are a few quirks which don't need to exist.
I really wish the devs would start honoring how linux is doing system configs and stop doing their weird way of expecting how the world works.
- fix network configs, i don't care about the concept of .new files, but seriously what is so hard in reading files in /etc/network/interfaces.d/ ?
- stop overriding node dns config from the system, if i override that in the gui for the node.
- Start proper documentation on your cli tools, the help text is as good as useless and i need to open the web documentation every time i need another commandline flag, because the docs are soooo bad.
and on the topic:
- Let me create encrypted zfs storage (right now i do luks + zfs, which feels just wrong),
- stop enabling the enterprise repo, when there is no license
- let me create an encrypted boot disk with the standard iso and bonded network configs
- fix your damn api that i don't need to specify where my clone templates are, to clone from them, why exactly is there an api if it does not know about them, even though id's are unique throughout the cluster?
