Please Submit Patches / Pull requests

Optimization / Post Install Script (install-post.sh aka postinstall.sh) run once

Turns a fresh proxmox install into an optimised proxmox host not required if server setup with installimage-proxmox.sh

'reboot-quick' command which uses kexec to boot the latest kernel, its a fast method of rebooting, without needing to do a hardware reboot

  • Disable the enterprise repo, enable the public repo, Add non-free sources
  • Fixes known bugs (public key missing, max user watches, etc)
  • Update the system
  • Detect AMD EPYC CPU and Apply Fixes
  • Force APT to use IPv4
  • Update proxmox and install various system utils
  • Customise bashrc
  • add the latest ceph provided by proxmox
  • Disable portmapper / rpcbind (security)
  • Ensure Entropy Pools are Populated, prevents slowdowns whilst waiting for entropy
  • Protect the web interface with fail2ban
  • Detect if is running in a virtual machine and install the relavant guest agent
  • Install ifupdown2 for a virtual internal network allows rebootless networking changes (not compatible with openvswitch-switch)
  • Limit the size and optimise journald
  • Install kernel source headers
  • Install kexec, allows for quick reboots into the latest updated kernel set as primary in the boot-loader.
  • Ensure ksmtuned (ksm-control-daemon) is enabled and optimise according to ram size
  • Set language, if chnaged will disable XS_NOAPTLANG
  • Increase max user watches, FD limit, FD ulimit, max key limit, ulimits
  • Optimise logrotate
  • Lynis security scan tool by Cisofy

  • Optimise Memory
  • Pretty MOTD BANNER
  • Enable Network optimising
  • Save bandwidth and skip downloading additional languages, requires XS_LANG="en_US.UTF-8"
  • Disable enterprise proxmox repo
  • Remove subscription banner
  • Install openvswitch for a virtual internal network
  • Detect if this is an OVH server and install OVH Real Time Monitoring
  • Set pigz to replace gzip, 2x faster gzip compression
  • Bugfix: high swap usage with low memory usage
  • Enable TCP BBR congestion control
  • Enable TCP fastopen
  • Enable testing proxmox repo
  • Automatically Synchronize the time
  • Set Timezone, empty = set automatically by IP
  • Install common system utilities
  • Increase vzdump backup speed

Install Proxmox Recommendations

Recommeneded partitioning scheme:

  • Raid 1 (mirror) 40 000MB ext4 /
  • Raid 1 (mirror) 30 000MB ext4 /xshok/zfs-cache only create if an ssd and there is 1+ unused hdd which will be made into a zfspool
  • Raid 1 (mirror) 5 000MB ext4 /xshok/zfs-slog only create if an ssd and there is 1+ unused hdd which will be made into a zfspool
  • SWAP
    • HDD less than 130gb = 16GB swap
    • HDD more than 130GB and RAM less than 64GB = 32GB swap
    • HDD more than 130GB and RAM more than 64GB = 64GB swap
  • Remaining for lv xfs /var/lib/vz (LVM)

------- SCRIPTS ------

Convert from Debian 11 to Proxmox 7 (debian11-2-proxmox7.sh) optional

Assumptions: Debian11 installed with a valid FQDN hostname set

  • Tested on KVM, VirtualBox and Dedicated Server
  • Will automatically detect cloud-init and disable.
  • Will automatically generate a correct /etc/hosts
  • Note: will automatically run the install-post.sh script
curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/extremeshok/xshok-proxmox/master/debian-2-proxmox/debian11-2-proxmox7.sh && chmod +x debian11-2-proxmox7.sh
./debian11-2-proxmox7.sh

Convert from Debian 9 to Proxmox 5 (debian9-2-proxmox5.sh) optional

curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/extremeshok/xshok-proxmox/master/debian-2-proxmox/debian9-2-proxmox5.sh && chmod +x debian9-2-proxmox5.sh
./debian9-2-proxmox5.sh

Enable Docker support for an LXC container (pve-enable-lxc-docker.sh) optional

There can be security implications as the LXC container is running in a higher privileged mode.

curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/extremeshok/xshok-proxmox/master/helpers/pve-enable-lxc-docker.sh --output /usr/sbin/pve-enable-lxc-docker && chmod +x /usr/sbin/pve-enable-lxc-docker
pve-enable-lxc-docker container_id

Convert from LVM to ZFS (lvm-2-zfs.sh) run once

Converts the a MDADM BASED LVM into a ZFS raid 1 (mirror)

  • Defaults to mount point: /var/lib/vz
  • Optional: specify the LVM_MOUNT_POINT ( ./lvm-2-zfs.sh LVM_MOUNT_POINT )
  • Creates the following storage/rpools
  • zfsbackup (rpool/backup)
  • zfsvmdata (rpool/vmdata)
  • /var/lib/vz/tmp_backup (rpool/tmp_backup)
  • Will automatically detect the required raid level and optimise.
  • 1 Drive = zfs
  • 2 Drives = mirror
  • 3-5 Drives = raidz-1
  • 6-11 Drives = raidz-2
  • 11+ Drives = raidz-3

NOTE: WILL DESTROY ALL DATA ON LVM_MOUNT_POINT

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/extremeshok/xshok-proxmox/master/zfs/lvm-2-zfs.sh -c -O lvm-2-zfs.sh && chmod +x lvm-2-zfs.sh
./lvm-2-zfs.sh

Create ZFS from devices (createzfs.sh) optional

Creates a zfs pool from specified devices

  • Will automatically detect the required raid level and optimise
  • 1 Drive = zfs (single)
  • 2 Drives = mirror (raid1)
  • 3-5 Drives = raidz-1 (raid5)
  • 6-11 Drives = raidz-2 (raid6)
  • 11+ Drives = raidz-3 (raid7)

NOTE: WILL DESTROY ALL DATA ON SPECIFIED DEVICES

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/extremeshok/xshok-proxmox/master/zfs/createzfs.sh -c -O createzfs.sh && chmod +x createzfs.sh
./createzfs.sh poolname /dev/device1 /dev/device2

Create ZFS cache and slog from /xshok/zfs-cache and /xshok/zfs-slog partitions and adds them to a zpool (xshok_slog_cache-2-zfs.sh) optional

Creates a zfs pool from specified devices

  • Will automatically mirror the slog and stripe the cache if there are multiple drives

NOTE: WILL DESTROY ALL DATA ON SPECIFIED PARTITIONS

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/extremeshok/xshok-proxmox/master/zfs/xshok_slog_cache-2-zfs.sh -c -O xshok_slog_cache-2-zfs.sh && chmod +x xshok_slog_cache-2-zfs.sh
./xshok_slog_cache-2-zfs.sh poolname

CREATES A ROUTED vmbr0 AND NAT vmbr1 NETWORK CONFIGURATION FOR PROXMOX (network-configure.sh) run once

Autodetects the correct settings (interface, gatewat, netmask, etc) Supports IPv4 and IPv6, Private Network uses 10.10.10.1/24 Also installs and properly configures the isc-dhcp-server to allow for DHCP on the vmbr1 (NAT) ROUTED (vmbr0): All traffic is routed via the main IP address and uses the MAC address of the physical interface. VM's can have multiple IP addresses and they do NOT require a MAC to be set for the IP via service provider

NAT (vmbr1): Allows a VM to have internet connectivity without requiring its own IP address Assignes 10.10.10.100 - 10.10.10.200 via DHCP

Public IP's can be assigned via DHCP, adding a host define to the /etc/dhcp/hosts.public file

Tested on OVH and Hetzner based servers

ALSO CREATES A NAT Private Network as vmbr1

NOTE: WILL OVERWRITE /etc/network/interfaces A backup will be created as /etc/network/interfaces.timestamp

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/extremeshok/xshok-proxmox/master/networking/network-configure.sh -c -O network-configure.sh && chmod +x network-configure.sh
./network-configure.sh && rm network-configure.sh

Creates default routes to allow for extra ip ranges to be used (network-addiprange.sh) optional

If no interface is specified the default gateway interface will be detected and used.

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/extremeshok/xshok-proxmox/master/networking/network-addiprange.sh -c -O network-addiprange.sh && chmod +x network-addiprange.sh
./network-addiprange.sh ip.xx.xx.xx/cidr interface_optional

Create Private mesh vpn/network (tincvpn.sh)

tinc private mesh vpn/network which supports multicast, ideal for private cluster communication

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/extremeshok/xshok-proxmox/master/networking/tincvpn.sh -c -O tincvpn.sh && chmod +x tincvpn.sh
./tincvpn.sh -h

Example for 3 node Cluster

cat /etc/hosts

global ips for tinc servers

11.11.11.11 host1

22.22.22.22 host2

33.33.33.33 host3

First Host (hostname: host1)

bash tincvpn.sh -i 1 -c host2

Second Host (hostname: host2)

bash tincvpn.sh -i 2 -c host3

Third Host (hostname: host3)

bash tincvpn.sh -i 3 -c host1

NOTES

Alpine Linux KVM / Qemu Agent Client Fix

Run the following on the guest alpine linux

apk update && apk add qemu-guest-agent acpi
echo 'GA_PATH="/dev/vport2p1"' >> /etc/conf.d/qemu-guest-agent
rc-update add qemu-guest-agent default
rc-update add acpid default
/etc/init.d/qemu-guest-agent restart

Proxmox ACME / Letsencrypt

Run the following on the proxmox server, ensure you have a valid DNS for the server which resolves

pvenode acme account register default mail@example.invalid
pvenode config set --acme domains=example.invalid
pvenode acme cert order

ZFS Snapshot Usage

# list all snapshots
zfs list -t snapshot
# create a pre-rollback snapshot
zfs-auto-snapshot --verbose --label=prerollback -r //
# rollback to a specific snapshot
zfs rollback <snapshotname>
