@tehmilcho Very nice. Is it possible to setup nodes on Raspberry Pi which can be managed with Proxmox? From what I have read so far it seems to be generally possible but not officially supported.

Honestly i have no idearâŚbecause i use a LattePanda delta its a x86 based minipc with a intel cpu.
One of my goals wars to get rid of this slow raspberry 3 because my pimatic need 3 min to restart on it and on the new pc only ~10 seconds.
Im also not pro in this stuff⌠I just want to share my journey and all that i learned so far.
I will begin to make the guide with all i know and some workaround for litte problems that im found in next days / weeks in the frist Post. I have to setup a new installation in VirtualBox to get all the screenshots and stuff. So just check this post later:-)
But im pretty happy with proxmox and how easy it wars and is to handle this kind of operations.

I am running Proxmox as well and love it. On my Proxmox I have Pimatic, Pi-hole, Nginx, Open Media Vault.
Next step is ioBrocker, but first only due to the adapter âSayitâ.
I use a HP Thin Client with 16GB RAM. Itâs not the fastest due to the old CPU, but for 70⏠it is more than okay. -

I test it with the German Website âbild.deâ with the Addblockplus Addin for Chrome the Websites says âNope, turn it offâ with the Proxy Server the Adds are gone and the Website works fine (i dont like / read the News on this site, its just good for testing )
Of curse you to setup the Proxy by your PC and in the Wlan-Settings of your Mobilephone. I my Guide later i will also explain something about this / give some Workarounds.

Hey Guys,
sorry that the Guide is still not completed (all i got at this moment see the first post) ⌠But i think youâll get it by yourself sometimes there is not enough time for hobbies, but i will finish it
By the way to make the Guide and my own Project complete, i bought a âAeotec AEOEZW090-C Aeon Labs USB Stickâ and installed OpenHAB as my âmiddlewareâ to handle Zwave-Stuff. So I know now âUSB Passthroughâ to a Promox Container works fine as well

Looks absolutely brilliant!
Got almost the same situation here, running on 2 Piâs. One old 1b for pihole (doesnât need resources so thatâs absolutely fine).
And a 3b running fully on a 160GB SSD with pimatic, Apache2, mosquito, node-red and a full desktop that can be accessed with vnc.Iâve tried ditching the 1b but ran into problems like you described so pihole stays on itâs own pi.
Maybe I will go the proxmox road someday. For now I can manage the Piâs so thanks for the explanation!

Dear tehmilcho,
Iâm not so firm with Proxmox, but I try to istall Pimatic under Ubuntu 18 as in your howto seen. But I running all the time in problems. Is there an easy guide howto Pimatic under Ubuntu? Or do you have an OVA File? Thanks for you help already!

Hey Mate,
the installation is honestly not that hard on Ubuntu itâs pretty mutch the same like the guide in the pimatic wiki but there some âbugsâ where I step it as well⌠Sadly I never finished the guide đ
At what step are you and whatâs the problem? If you have discord we can also have a voice chat there, just send me you nickname with #xxx stuff via PM.
Problems with autostart under Ubuntu:

Dear tehmilcho,
Thanks for your help. With the linkâs you provided, it was possible for me to solve the problemâs. I got Pimatic now running in Proxmox without any failure.
Thanks and best regards
