Hi Jeff,

i totally agree! I also tried to deploy PVE via Puppet:

class urzpvesrv (

) inherits urzpvesrv::params {

   package { 'systemd-sysv':
     ensure   => 'installed',
     provider => 'apt',
   }
   package { 'ksm-control-daemon':
     ensure   => 'installed',
     provider => 'apt',
   }
   package { 'open-iscsi':
     ensure   => 'installed',
     provider => 'apt',
   }
   package { 'proxmox-ve':
     ensure          => 'installed',
     provider        => 'apt',
     install_options => ['--force-yes','-y'],
     require         => 
Package['open-iscsi','ksm-control-daemon','systemd-sysv'],
     notify          => Reboot['rebootafterpveinst'],
   }
   reboot { 'rebootafterpveinst':
     apply => 'finished',
   }

}


But no luck eighter!

Proxmox-ve is a virtual package. Shell I try to install them one by one? 
I think there is to much interactive configuration going on in these 
packages.

Is somebody deploying PVE unattended? What do you use? How things go?


Cheers,

Vadim
