What problem does it solve?
Proxmox VE infrastructure often requires coordinated management of VMs, Linux containers (LXC), clustering, storage, and integration with Terraform/Ansible. This skill provides a consolidated reference and actionable workflows to streamline operations across nodes and avoid manual, disjointed tasks.
Core Features & Use Cases
- VM management with qm: list, status, start, stop, configure.
- Container management with pct: list, status, start, stop, enter.
- Cluster management with pvecm: status, nodes, add, delnode, expected votes.
- Integration patterns: Terraform/Ansible for provisioning and automation.
- Use case: plan and deploy a small HA cluster with shared storage and scripted backups.
Quick Start
Use the proxmox skill to perform a basic multi-node VM provisioning workflow: connect to your Proxmox node, create a VM with qm, and verify operations with pct and pvecm.
