VM lifecycle
23- New VM wizardSeven guided steps (cluster, template, resources, identity, owner, network, review), each limited by what the project allows.In the guide
- VMID from the nameNEWA name ending in a number, such as web-prod-252, is created as VMID 252 or refused with the reason: in use, recently freed, or outside the template's range.In the guide
- Load-balanced placementNew VMs land on a node chosen from the hosts enabled for the project; the Review step shows the node and why.In the guide
- Background provisioningCloning, booting and guest setup run as a server-side job, so you can close the browser and follow progress later.In the guide
- RedeployRe-run the guest deployment (hostname and domain join) on an existing VM from its action menu.In the guide
- Granular power actionsStart, shutdown, reboot and hard stop, each behind its own permission, from the row menu or the VM header.In the guide
- Suspend and resumeA real hibernate that frees host RAM, with Resume bringing the guest back where it left off; HA-managed VMs are handled automatically.In the guide
- Bulk actionsSelect many VMs and start, shut down, snapshot or delete them together, with state checked per VM.In the guide
- Live power feedbackA VM's name shimmers until the guest has really changed state, whether the action came from the portal, the API, a lease or a schedule.In the guide
- Virtual Machines listA dense live table with search, filters, sorting, inline owner and tag editing, and a hover preview of each VM.In the guide
- VM pageOne page per VM with tabs for overview, snapshots, backups, network, firewall, metrics, resources, management, storage and activity.In the guide
- VM metrics30 days of CPU, memory and disk utilization, backup statistics and operations counts per VM.In the guide
- Browser console (noVNC)A full graphical console in the browser that works even when the guest's network is down, with one-time passwords per connection.In the guide
- Console keyboard dockSend key combinations like Ctrl+Alt+Delete, paste from the clipboard, or type on an on-screen keyboard.In the guide
- SSH terminalAn in-browser SSH terminal for Linux VMs, opened from the console menu.In the guide
- RDP file downloadDownload a ready-made RDP file for a VM from its console menu.In the guide
- Live resizeChange CPU, memory and disk directly on Proxmox; disks only grow, and template caps and quotas still apply.In the guide
- Behaviour settingsCPU type, boot order, autostart and the QEMU guest agent toggle in the same dialog as resizing.In the guide
- OwnershipEvery VM belongs to a user or a group; owners get alerts and lease reminders, and ownership drives visibility.In the guide
- Deletion protectionA server-side lock that blocks deleting a VM through the interface and the API.In the guide
- Real destroy with cleanupDeleting destroys the guest on Proxmox, removes its AD computer object, offboards the agent and blacklists the VMID, while keeping existing backups.In the guide
- Clone and renameClone a VM or rename it from its action menu, each behind its own permission.In the guide
- VM migrationNEWMove a VM to another node of its cluster from its details; the HA rule and backup job follow.In the guide
Deployments & automation
17- Deployment workflowsNEWDefine what a new VM goes through as stages, tasks and steps, and pick a workflow per template.In the guide
- Builder, Canvas, JSON and PreviewNEWEdit a workflow as a structured list, a drag-and-drop node graph or raw JSON, and play it as a simulated run.In the guide
- Standard workflow as a starting pointNEWStart from the built-in deployment with every step and its real action, then add your own steps.In the guide
- Live deployment viewNEWWatch a VM's deployment on its page: stages, tasks, progress bars and the latest message from the guest agent.In the guide
- Action catalogNEWSteps can clone, start, assign backup jobs and HA, rename, join a domain, add local admins, verify, run scripts, reboot and wait.In the guide
- Workflow variablesNEWUse values like {{vm.name}}, {{deploy.domain}} or the output of an earlier step in any text field; the join password reaches only the agent.In the guide
- Conditions, timeouts and continue on errorNEWRun a step only when a condition holds, give it a hard time limit, or let the workflow carry on after it fails.In the guide
- Script checksNEWScript steps can check the exit code, required or forbidden text, or JSON fields, retry until the check passes and reboot afterwards.In the guide
- Configuration runsNEWApply configuration workflows to existing VMs, up to 5 in parallel, with every step's result recorded.In the guide
- Idempotent building blocksNEWReady-made steps for files, folders, registry values, services, Windows features, IPv6, certificates and firewall rules that only change what differs.In the guide
- Check modeNEWA dry run in which building blocks report what they would change without changing anything.In the guide
- Runs gridNEWEvery run as a grid of VMs by steps, marked ok, changed, skipped or failed, with the message and output per cell.In the guide
- Run again and retry failedNEWRun a dry run for real, check again, or retry only the VMs that failed, using the workflow's current version.In the guide
- Lock VMs while runningNEWOptionally block power, delete, migrate, resize, snapshot and remote-command actions on a VM while a run is working on it.In the guide
- VM leasesGive a VM an expiry date and action (power off, suspend, delete or notify) with reminders and self-service renewal.In the guide
- Group lease rulesProject-wide rules that match VMs by name, tag, owner, age and more, and apply staged notify, suspend or delete actions.In the guide
- Power schedulesStart, stop, reboot or suspend VMs on chosen weekdays at a set time and timezone.In the guide
Guest & agent
14- Verlocx agentA small service inside the guest that handles deployment, remote commands, disk scans and live telemetry.In the guide
- Separate portal channelNEWThe portal reaches the backend on an internal listener with its own secret; the agents' enrollment secret can't open it, so no VM can pose as the portal.In the guide
- Protected agent identityNEWA VM that is already enrolled can't be taken over by another key — re-enrolling needs the agent offboarded first.In the guide
- Zero-config enrollmentAgents register themselves and link to their VM through the SMBIOS UUID the portal sets at provisioning.In the guide
- Hostname and domain joinThe agent renames the guest and joins it to the domain with an encrypted per-project join account, resuming across reboots.In the guide
- Owner as local administratorThe VM owner is added to the guest's local Administrators group, deferred automatically until the guest has joined the domain.In the guide
- Remote command presetsRun vetted, allow-listed scripts such as flush DNS or restart a service in a guest, safe to delegate to support staff.In the guide
- Ad-hoc scriptsRun any PowerShell or cmd script as SYSTEM in a guest, behind a separate permission.In the guide
- Guest scheduled tasksSee the guest's own scheduled tasks or cron jobs on the VM's Management tab.In the guide
- Disk-usage scanAn on-demand scan of a guest's disk that shows a folder breakdown and the largest files.In the guide
- Fleet pageEvery agent with version, last seen, linked VM and live load, filterable by status, OS and version.In the guide
- Agent self-updateAgents update from a release hosted by the portal, on demand or by themselves, and verify signature and checksum first.In the guide
- Delete or offboard agentsRemove a stale agent from the list, or revoke its enrollment so it has to register again.In the guide
- Agent-sourced metricsCPU, memory and per-volume disk usage come from the agent inside the guest, so status reflects the guest's real state.In the guide
Storage & data protection
15- SnapshotsCreate, restore and delete point-in-time snapshots, with separate permissions for each.In the guide
- Snapshot treeA VM's snapshots drawn as a branch graph with a “Now” node marking the live state.In the guide
