In this post, we will do something similar, but this time we will install a virtual Proxmox inside of an existing Proxmox server, and then make a cluster of virtual Proxmoxen, all managed from one dashboard. This endeavour serves no practical production purpose, but may be very useful for testing and/or documentation, both of which are germane to this blog. https://book.rymcg.tech/blog/virtual-proxmox/01-virtual-proxmox/ Wed, 21 Jul 2021 00:01:00 -0600 https://book.rymcg.tech/blog/virtual-proxmox/01-virtual-proxmox/ This is the first post in the proxmox series, read the introduction first. This post describes how to install Proxmox inside of a KVM virtual machine on your development workstation and setup a small K3s cluster. If you want to install Proxmox on a non-virtual computer instead, you can follow the official guide and then come back here and skip to the middle of this page (Setup SSH keys and secure properly) and follow along from there. https://book.rymcg.tech/blog/virtual-proxmox/02-snapshots/ Sat, 31 Jul 2021 00:01:00 -0600 https://book.rymcg.tech/blog/virtual-proxmox/02-snapshots/ Introduction In Part 1 of this series, you created an Ubuntu VM template, and three KVM virtual machines (all cloned from the same template) on your Virtual Proxmox host, and you joined all three nodes into a single K3s cluster, using the same cluster token. It is a special point in time when you have not yet installed anything on your cluster. You can use Proxmox to make a snapshot of these VMs, and thus create a restoration point in time, of a fresh default cluster, with no data. https://book.rymcg.tech/blog/virtual-proxmox/03-port-forwarding/ Sat, 31 Jul 2021 00:02:00 -0600 https://book.rymcg.tech/blog/virtual-proxmox/03-port-forwarding/ Introduction In Part 1 of this series, you installed a Virtual Proxmox server in a libvirt virtual machine (with the GUI tool virt-manager), and you chose the network selection of type Virtual Network 'default': NAT. This type of network only allows traffic from another (virtual) machine on the same network ('default'), including from your host workstation (libvirt has created a virtual network device, on the host workstation, with an IP address in the same subnet as the VM running Proxmox).
