Proxmox Backup Server: Full Getting Started Guide!

Proxmox Backup Server is a custom Linux distro that you can run on your server to have it serve as a backup endpoint. It integrates quickly and easily with Proxmox Virtual Environment, making it a great solution to back up your virtual machines and containers. In addition to that, it can also be used to store non-VM backups too, so running Proxmox Virtual Environment is NOT a requirement. In this video, I’ll teach you everything you need in order to get started with Proxmox Backup Server.

Proxmox VE Full Course: Class 16 – High Availability

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.

Proxmox VE Full Course: Class 15 – Clustering

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.

Proxmox VE Full Course: Class 14 – Shared Storage

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.

Proxmox VE Full Course: Class 13 – Networking

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.
