Introduction

A good way for beginners and a fast way to install OpenVZ to a new server is the Proxmox VE bare-metal ISO installer. Currently it´s beta software using a development OpenVZ kernel (2.6.24).

Features

Proxmox VE installs the complete operating system and management tools in 3 to 5 minutes (depends on the used hardware).

"Bare-metal" means that you start from a empty server - there is no need to install a base operation system.

Including the following:

  • Complete operating system (Debian Etch 64)
  • Partition the hard drive with LVM2, optimized for vzdump
  • Backup/Restore tools
  • Proxmox VE Kernel with OpenVZ and [KVM] support
  • Web based management interface
  • Integrated virtual appliance download
  • Configuration Cluster

Please note, the complete server is used and all existing data is removed.
