Proxmox-Blueprints

Goals

• Automation for new servers.
• Infrastructure as Code.
• Build more, rely less on UI.
• Ease of use.

Tested Hardware

• Dell Optiplex 5060 and a 5050
• Dell 7810T - The dual cpu setup and ability to accept 2400 DDR4 ram makes this a prime choice for ProxMox Hypervisor
• Z6 G4 - xeon gold
