For those of you that are brand-new to Proxmox and are wondering how to get started, this is the video for you! This beginner-focused video serves as a super-easy jumping on point for anyone that might be interested running Proxmox VE as their virtualization solution. This video will cover a sample server build, installation, launching a virtual machine, and more!
The process of launching a Windows virtual machine on Proxmox is a bit more involved when compared to launching a Linux VM, but in this video, I’ll go over the entire process to make it easy. Follow along with me, and you’ll have your own Windows VM running on Proxmox. This method covers both Windows 10 and Windows Server.
Multipass is an awesome utility that allows you to quickly create Ubuntu virtual machine instances for testing. In this video, I show how to install and use it.
I ran into a problem recently where virtual machines I created from a template were fighting over the same IP address. Each of them would be assigned the same IP address from my DHCP server, despite the fact that each VM created from my standard template had a unique Mac address. I had a hard time finding the culprit, so I figured I would write a post about it. In my case, I am using Proxmox, though the root-cause is not specific to any virtualization package. My virtual machines were all running Ubuntu 18.04, though this can impact other distributions too. The root cause ended up being due to something called a “machine-id”. Read on to find out how I solved this.
