I am going to redo my server from scratch. I installed virt-manager hoping to build it in there and keep setup guide/notes for myself for when i move it to the server pc.
Im not fluent in linux speak so bare with me.
Does anyone know how I can reach the proxmox IP when its in a vm set up with virt-manager? I installed it with the default network adapter setting and it gave me 10.0.2.15 for the ip. I couldnt reach it from the main system or a debian vm. I deleted both the proxmox and debian vm’s and will try again. Should I be using a different network mode in virt-manager? is it even possible to do what im trying to do?
I want to try out using proxmox with a debian vm instead of baremetal omv for docker. I was also thinking about using a VM of omv for my storage drives.
anyone have input on this stuff? I saw docker has a desktop app that seems pretty good so I was going to try that. Or would it be better to just install debian without a DE and use docker from the command line?
should i just use debian for the drive shares too? should i stick with smb?
does it even make sense for me to use proxmox? I figured it would be easier for me (personally) to keep things backed up. I like the idea of being able to create new vm’s to experiment with without breaking my main/only server.
Thanks
Pretty sure Proxmox only supports LXC containers, not OCI
You could install docker with proxmox, it’s just debian after all, then you could install portainer to visualize them. I just don’t think it’s a good practice to install docker directly on a hypervisor, too much risk to screw something up and then you may need to reinstall everything affecting all other VMs.
You could however install docker on a lxc. Not the easiest approach but less risky.
Edit: or Dockge in your case
