Proxmox Install

For the base install, use the latest ISO and follow the instructions. Installation values:

• IP/Hostname:
  • 10.0.9.101/24 / glint.pve.kgb33.dev
  • 10.0.9.102/24 / targe.pve.kgb33.dev
  • 10.0.9.103/24 / sundance.pve.kgb33.dev
• Email: pve@kgb33.dev

Afterward, implement the following post-install steps.

VLAN Tagging

Unfortunately, there is no way to add VLAN tagging in the installation. Instead, open a shell on the device and edit /etc/network/interfaces.

 auto lo
 iface lo inet loopback
 
 iface enp7s0f1 inet manual
 
-auto vmbr0
-iface vmbr0 inet static
+auto vmbr0.9
+iface vmbr0.9 inet static
         address 10.0.9.102/24
         gateway 10.0.9.1

+auto vmbr0
+iface vmbr0 inet manual
         bridge-ports enp7s0f1
         bridge-stp off
         bridge-fd 0
+        bridge-vlan-aware yes
+        bridge-vids 2-4094

 iface wlp0s20f3 inet manual
 
 
 source /etc/network/interfaces.d/*

Save and reload with ifreload -a.

Clustering

Make sure to cluster the machines using Proxmox's builtin clustering system.

On one machines (I prefer targe) create the cluster, then join the other machines using their web UI.

Post-Install Ansible Playbooks

Create my user account and pull ssh keys:

cd ansible
ansible-playbook --limit=pve playbooks/audd/audd.yaml -k -u root

Then, run the following playbook to set the DNS servers and enable closing the lid without shutting down the machine.

ansible-playbook --limit=pve playbooks/pve/system-services.yaml -k -u root
