ProxMenux Post-Install Script Documentation

The Customizable Post-Install Script is a utility designed to optimize the installation of Proxmox VE by adjusting system configurations. One of the advantages of its modular and selectable structure is that it allows users to choose specific settings based on their requirements, needs, and preferences.

This script is primarily based on the work of extremeshok – Scripts for working with and optimizing Proxmox and the Proxmox VE Post Install script from Proxmox VE Helper-Scripts.

This script includes 10 main categories, each targeting a key aspect of Proxmox VE performance, security, and usability:

Each category includes selectable options, ensuring that users can tailor the system adjustments to their specific needs without applying unnecessary modifications. Click on a category to explore available settings.

Important: Avoid Running Multiple Post-Install Scripts

It is not recommended to use different post-installation scripts, as this can cause conflicts by overwriting or duplicating files and settings.

  • The ProxMenux Post-Install Script is designed to avoid overwriting existing configurations where possible.
  • If you have already run the eXtremeSHOK Post-Install Script, there is no need to run the ProxMenux Post-Install Script again, except for Option 35 (console customization).
  • If you have used the Helper-Scripts Post-Install Script, you can run all ProxMenux options except for options 4 and 27, as they will already be configured.
