These scripts were a total game-changer for me. I went from not having ever touched proxmox to running a double-digit number of containers and even a VM, all automatically backing up and updating in just a couple of afternoons. These scripts really smooth the path and make it easier to learn and understand the system as well.
first time i heard about the proxmox helper scripts project was through one of novaspirit tech videos. s/o to don hope he’s doing well. it’s such a great project, one that i will definitely be supporting - as always thanks for showcasing it, tim!
As a tip, I use `tmux` on the shell just in case I click away from the browser or tab to not loose the progress of the shell. Just executing `tmux a` will bring back the latest active shell used via `tmux`.
@Techno Tim: On the updater script, the selection system is inverted; you check them to skip updating the container. You selected all of the LXCs, which actually told the script to skip updating those containers, which is why it was quick. It skipped them all. FYI.
Hi Tim, thanks for this vid. It is the FIRST TIME I see someone FINALLY addressing the LXC life cycle management! I checked out the update script, and it basically is a wide apt update, which is fine. But as you said, it might brake things up (eventually, surelly). I still find the docker packaging with dependencies better compared to this. Nevertheless, it is always good to have options. Cheers!
By god I've been having fun with these. I'm annoyed I didn't know these existed. Thank you so much for your videos. I'm actually having to clean up my old VM/CTs where I've been testing things you show in the videos! Thanks again!
Love these scripts, have been using a number of them for a while as I migrated some of my docker containers off of a VM to LXC containers. Some of these processes including the update cron and kernel clean which I hadn't even discovered yet. Loved how you talked through your thought processes as you went through these!
I was having a bunch of errors with backups after a bad SSD. Use the LXC cleaners and now everything seems to be working. Can't recommend proxmox scripts enough!
I used the tteck scripts to run most Apps on my Proxmox Cluster as LXC, amazing what tteck built and glad to see it keeps on evolving. Only have a 3 node Docker swarm left running on VM’s for stuff that doesn’t have a tteck script available yet.
Hey just wanted to say I really learned a lot from your content. Yourself and @christianlempa make the best content in my opinion. No over the top hyping things up, just good quality, to the point tech tutorials and a nice amount of personality to make it fun. Thank you Tim, keep it up. I'm sending your videos to my nephew to learn from (including myself).
Looks helpful, for large scale though it'd be nice if there were ansible playbooks of these scripts with the prompts removed, that way they can be fire and forget when spinning up new proxmox servers and adding them into the cluster
There was no reason to uninstall oh-my-zsh, but simply running bash won't fix it. You either need to chsh to bash, or "fake it" by doing "SHELL=bash bash -c ..." Very obnoxious of the scripts to require this.
I have a rudimentary shell script I run every time I prep a new Linux VM or LXC container to get my basic setup under control. One of the things it does at the very end is run chsh specifically to set the "right" shell for me. That way when I hop out of proxmox and ssh in, everything is "right"
LOL It's SOO Weird! I was asking for a youtuber to review this like a week ago and you finally did it! THANKS! I just didn't expect such a high profiler to do it yay! 🤩
Migrated all my applications to this. So easy to get everything setup quickly compared to everything else I've tried. Unless you're trying to learn docker or use it regularly this is the way to go. I also have my servers setup in a proxmox cluster so I can easily move containers around.
16:15 this is true essentially because of the way the lxc is created If it is just an lxc image (bundled as we can see with docker images) it will be less a concern even if, yes, you still can break things using a magic updater script... what you are likely to not do when using a prepackaged lxc image
I think the key difference is that the Docker image maintainer would maintain dependencies vs. you managing them. There's no way to change dependencies for an image without rebuilding.
Good to see you getting into PVE Tim! I've been working with Proxmox since PVE5.4 and it's amazing to see how much it has evolved and improved over the years. Great videos as always mate.
@@potzblitz49583Ah I see! Well his content is good nevertheless and I wanted to show my support. Also, it's written: "He's been using it for years". Have the BEST of days! ;)
Another tip : you can manually update a container by running his script INSIDE the container shell (not the PVE one). The script detect it and will run as an update.
16:00 - there's no bug. IP address shows there only when you have QEMU Guest Agent installed, and Home Assistant probably doesn't have that by default.
The LXC containers overwhelm me a little. For example, if I have an Audiobookshelf LXC, where do I store the audiobooks? Can I create a shared folder in an LXC? Is it possible to import a Nextcloud or Audiobookshelf docker instance into an LXC container?
Yes, but only if you set a fixed IP address in the configuration. If you're using DHCP it will just show "dhcp" for that interface. I think it would be nice if Proxmox could show you the main IP address on the Summary page of LXC containers just like it does with VMs that have qemu-guest-agent running.
Hey Tim I just watched a video from great Scott and he made a touchscreen on a raspberry pie to run home assistant. But I was wondering if you could take this a step further and have for say apps displayed for instance unifi ha and any other things needed to be accessed on such smart home panel in your hallway. Anyways just thought it was a good idea and would get us closer to that smart home goal
Really like these scripts, but there are a couple of significant annoyances, which you touched on: (1) why should they not be run via SSH? and (2) why do they care what your default shell is? On the latter, you're explicitly invoking bash to run the scripts; there's no reason the default shell should matter.
Hey man, how did you change the Proxmox web gui shell font? Or did they just update it in one of the 8.x updates? Might also just be the browser I'm using (Firefox) 🤷♂
Ok so as it seems that i am an idiot, what is the exact difference between the "Home Assistant Container LXC" and "Home Assisstant Core LXC"? Is it just the fact that one is running Home Assistant in a Container inside another Container (Docker) and the other one is just the LXC Container without Docker? The functions are the same like not having the addon store and HACS by default? If so, what's the sense of running the "Home Assistant Container LXC" method? If i will ever decide to use Docker, for easier migration? Thanks
Thanks to you and a couple of other TH-camrs I got into running some virtual machines, Docker (I even tried Kubernetes, for a short time) and more recently Plex. I used a 2nd hand Dell micro PC and ran Hyper-V on the included Windows 11 Pro. I ended up running Plex natively under Windows to allow use of my iGPU for transcoding. Now I'm going to try Proxmox. I have another mini-PC coming today, this time with a 12th gen Intel CPU. So - Plex on its own Ubuntu VM, in a Docker container on an Ubuntu VM or in an LXC container? I think I'll probably start with this helper script but what are the pros and cons of each? And how to pass through the iGPU? Do you have a video on that?
Does Veeam Replication job can be configured on proxmox VE, I found Veeam have a plugin to add Proxmox to Backup infrastucture. I'm looking for a combination of Vmware Exi Vm replicate to Proxmox.Please advise . thanks for your toutorials
Hi，Does it mean that for each service I run, I have to create a linux system? I noticed that each container takes up a lot of space. Can I run all applications in one container? Or create an LXC docker and run the docker application. Which one do you think is better?
For the scripts that setup one LXC per application, what's the advantage of that over Docker? Why not just use docker instead? It seems to me that Docker is more portable.
This is super helpful!! Any chance for an updated Docker tutorial? I keep having TONS of issues with docker even when following tutorials as it seems like something is out of date or something?
Hi Tim. I tried executing the Post Install Script, fundamentally to remove subscription nag screen. I got no errors, but nag screen is always active. May you suggest something?

This applies to all LXC containers and not the script itself. The script does exactly what it should do, updates the LXC container and all dependencies and that in theory, could break your application at some point if they are not compatible. I was really just trying to illustrate how it's different than Docker, and again, this script isn't any different than if you updated the container yourself.

Consider removing the features that you aren't using on HAOS or adjust your VM settings. HAOS is very light all-in-one solution. By contrast, HA Core is very stripped down and in my opinion, too much so. That's why it's called Core.
Hey Tim, I think one of the most missing part of proxmox would be how to install proxmox on an old laptop (wifi only) or want to have wifi only server so that it can be kept far away. I found few script which involves creating a NAT, such that wifi is on different network, proxmox is on different. V8 supports installing on laptop but doesn't allow creating and configuring bridges by default. I have seen tons of people searching for how to properly install proxmox on laptop.. please create one.
You didn't have to remove omz, all you needed to do was change your shell: chsh -s $(which bash) then change it back when you're done: chsh -s $(which zsh)
