Proxmox WebUI User Management

Creating Users

https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/User_Management

creating with pam is easiest, but creating with pve is probably safer to seperate from your sudo password.

Make sure to set 2 factor authentication after.

IPMI

Make sure to install ipmitool on your chosen distro.

Replace <username> with your chosen username.

# modprobe ipmi_devintf
# ipmitool user set name 2 <username>
# ipmitool user set password 2
# ipmitool user enable 2

You can reset the BMC to factory settings as below:

IPMI Sideband

Tip: IPMI Sideband is useful if you are at a colocated datacenter and just want to test IPMI without having to ask a tech to attach it. But it might be a good idea to disable sideband once you can get IPMI working on it's native port, so that the host port can be disconnected when not needed.

Use this to run IPMI over the same network ethernet interface. IPMI requires it's own IP, so choose one out of your allotment and give it to it: at least temporarily.

Apparmor

For OpenVZ containers, Mandatory Access Control is handled at the host level. This is why apparmor and selinux are disabled on the containers themselves.

NFS

To enable NFS, you must allow it through apparmor.
