# proxmox-automation

Automations for Proxmox using Terraform and Ansible. Can be used to setup and provision containers and virtual machines. Read [my post](https://vanmieghem.io/automating-proxmox-with-terraform-ansible/) for more information.

### Usage

1. Clone the repo and `cd proxmox-automation/tf/ct` (for a container)

2. Install `ansible` and `terraform` (on a Mac `brew install ansible terraform`)

3. Configure the variables in `var.tf` and add your public keys to `ansible/files/authorized_keys`. To provision multiple resources, add more hostnames and IP addresses to the defined list in `var.tf`.

4. `export PM_PASS='your-PVE-password'`

5. `terraform init` (this should pull in the Terraform Proxmox provider and configure the Terraform project)

6. `terraform plan -out plan`

7. `terraform apply`

### Creating a cloud-init VM template

On the pve host:

1. `apt install cloud-init`

2. Create a template VM (in this case Ubuntu 20.04):

```

wget http://cloud-images.ubuntu.com/focal/current/focal-server-cloudimg-amd64.img

export VM_ID="9000"

qm create 9000 --memory 2048 --net0 virtio,bridge=vmbr0 --sockets 1 --cores 2 --vcpu 2  -hotplug network,disk,cpu,memory --agent 1 --name cloud-init-focal --ostype l26

qm importdisk $VM_ID focal-server-cloudimg-amd64.img local-lvm

qm set $VM_ID --scsihw virtio-scsi-pci --virtio0 local-lvm:vm-$VM_ID-disk-0

qm set $VM_ID --ide2 local-lvm:cloudinit

qm set $VM_ID --boot c --bootdisk virtio0

qm set $VM_ID --serial0 socket

qm template $VM_ID

rm focal-server-cloudimg-amd64.img

```
