Things I miss in Proxmox Virtual Environment 1.7 Webgui

By Ruben on Dec 1, 2010 | In OpenVZ, Proxmox VE (Virtual Environment) | Send feedback »

Proxmox Virtual Environment version 1.7 (released 30/11/2010) is the successor of version 1.6. I didn't find any cosmetic changes in the webgui, so this is my personal enhancement list.

General

  • ability to change server hostname (it keeps *.localhost.localdomain) which results in e-mail delivery errors;
  • doing network changes without rebooting (e.g. configuring eth1 for local LAN);
  • option to copy an existing/running VM to a new VMID;
  • a status screen of the local harddisks (incl. raid) health;
  • a history graph of the virtual machines cpu/memory load to detect performance problems.

Missing the following for Configuration -> Backups:

  • "standard excludes" (log/temp files) checkbox;
  • configure to run multiple backups a day;
  • configuring the "maxfile" option (max. number of backups to hold per containter);
  • a run-back-up-now button.
