Hetzner Proxmox Working Config – About

Proxmox VE is an open-source virtualization platform. It combines two powerful virtualization technologies, KVM for virtual machines and LXC for lightweight container-based virtualization. Furthermore, Hetzner is a popular hosting provider known for its dedicated servers and cloud services.

When we set up Proxmox VE on a Hetzner server, there are several key configurations and considerations to consider. Let’s take a look at the different steps:

1. First, we have to order a dedicated server or cloud instance from Hetzner. Additionally, the server should have hardware virtualization support enabled in the BIOS/UEFI.
2. Next, we must install Proxmox VE on the Hetzner server. Proxmox offers an ISO image that we boot from a USB drive or mount via the Hetzner control panel’s KVM console.
3. Then, it is time to configure the network interfaces on the Hetzner server. We usually have at least one public IP address and a private IP address.
4. Now, we must configure the firewall on both the Proxmox host and the virtual machines/containers to allow or restrict incoming and outgoing traffic.
5. At this point, we have to set up storage for virtual machines and containers. Hetzner servers offer multiple storage options. We can configure Proxmox to use these storage options.
6. Then, we must configure backups and snapshots to protect the VMs and containers.
7. After that, we have to configure networking for VMs and containers.
8. Our experts recommend using security best practices like regular updates, strong passwords, etc.
9. We also have to set up monitoring for the Proxmox host and the VMs or containers to keep track of resource usage and performance.
10. This step is optional. We can configure high availability to make sure critical virtual machines are available in case of a host failure.
