Proxmox Module

[Tyson]

Attached is the Proxmox module for Blesta. Special thanks to Alex at Full Ambit Networks for creating the module and giving us rights to it. We'll be officially including it in v3.1 of Blesta.

 

For now, we'll be considering it a beta module, and would appreciate any feedback you can provide.

 

You can upload the contents of the attached zip to your Blesta installation directory, and then head into Blesta's admin interface to install the module under [settings] -> [Modules] -> [Available].

If we write stuff that helps out a lot is it possible that you guys would merge it upstream? For example the bootstrap conversion I'm working on. I'm probably going to sell it as a theme but I would prefer to give it to you guys and it be part of stock Blesta..?

It's possible yes, but probably not likely for your bootstrap conversion. We're planning to do this ourselves for 3.2 and it's likely we'll go a slightly different direction than you have.

hmm...I guess in that case I'll stop working on my super sekrit bootstrapped Blesta > Joomla bridge...until 3.2

Doesn't hurt to ask.

Thank you mate, very kind of you

To me it looks like KVM machines are not supportet by this module, correct?

As far as I know, Proxmox only works with KVM machines...so I would hope the module supports it...

[henning]

Now I can see how to activate KVM machines. So I'm fine.

No, proxmox support KVM and OpenVZ.

[Paul]

The module supports both KVM and OpenVZ. You select the virtualization type when creating a package using the Proxmox module.

[Daniel B]

I've avoided Proxmox for a long time because it doesn't mention OpenVZ support anywhere on their frontpage...it specifically says KVM...lol.  Guess I'll actually have to give it a look now (I like to use both for different things)

Actually, I have the impression that OpenVZ is better supported than KVM. However, both do work and both are supported by the module to the best of the API's ability.

 

GoGetSSL and TheSSLStore modules are coming soon as well.

yes, yes...but it still doesn't mention OpenVZ at all on their main page...if something doesn't mention what I'm looking for (specially a main feature like that) on the front page...I don't always see much reason to dig any further...

 

And since their main page specifically states KVM but not OpenVZ...it was a pretty logical decision for me to just move along

[Paul]

They should update their site to mention OpenVZ.. but I get the feeling they don't really care. http://memegenerator.net/instance/31615631

I'm testing Blesta for the first time - so bear with me.

 

I must be doing something wrong:

 

I configured the Proxmox module. After that I wanted to create a "Package". The list of "Assigned Nodes" and "Available Nodes" are empty.

 

How do I create a "Node"?

OpenVZ is container based virtualization which is stated more than once across most of there site.

You setup nodes in your Proxmox account, then they will be available via the API, and selectable when you create a package in Blesta.

Don't worry, I've the same issue.

Well, i've a node in my node list (Proxmox).

But the node list (Blesta) is empty.

[Tyson]

Is the node assigned to the correct type (KVM or OpenVZ)? If that's correct and it still doesn't appear, then it must not be able to connect via the API to fetch that information. Double-check your module details are correct. For example, if your username is "root", you may need to include the realm in your username field, e.g. "root@pam". Make sure there there isn't a firewall blocking communication either.

[initd]

Okay, it was my mistake. I forgot the @pve.

[henning]

I have one Proxmox server where I manually created some guest (which is probably not necessary). I clicked "ADD SERVER" in Blesta, provided usernamen and password of root on Proxmox and set the IP of Proxmox as "Hostname". The node list in Blesta is still empty

[henning]

Using root@pam did the trick! Thanks!

[Alex]

Nevermind.
