Proxmox Virtual Environment (Proxmox VE) is an open-source server virtualization platform that lets you manage both virtual machines and containers in a unified environment. It utilizes the Type 1 (bare-metal) KVM hypervisor for full hardware virtualization, providing robust and efficient management of diverse workloads while also offering lightweight container-based virtualization through LXC.

Set the permanent backups directory environment variable or edit the script to set the $DEFAULT_BACK_DIR variable to your preferred backup directory
export BACK_DIR="/path/to/backup/directory"
Make the script executable
chmod +x ./prox_config_backup.sh
Shut down ALL VMs + LXC Containers if you want to go the safe way. (Not required)
Run the script
./prox_config_backup.sh
Notification
The script supports healthchecks.io notifications, either to the hosted service, or a self-hosted instance. The notification sends during the final cleanup stage, and either returns 0 to tell Healthchecks that the command was successful, or the exit error code (1-255) to tell Healthchecks that the command failed. To enable:
Set the $HEALTHCHECK variable to 1
Set the $HEALTHCHECK_URL variable to the full ping URL for your check. Do not include anything after the UUID, the status flag will be added by the script.

On the host being connected to, you need to advertise that Tailscale is managing SSH connections which originate from the Tailscale network to this host
sudo tailscale up --ssh
# This generates a host keypair, shares its public half with the Tailscale control plane for distribution to clients, and configures tailscaled to intercept all traffic from your tailnet that is routed to port 22 on the Tailscale IP address. This SSH initialization only needs to be done once per host.

SSH into the Ubuntu VM and run the BookStack Ubuntu Installation script
â A script to install BookStack on a fresh instance of Ubuntu 24.04 is available. This script is ONLY FOR A FRESH OS, it will install Apache, MySQL 8.0 & PHP 8.3 and could OVERWRITE any existing web setup on the machine. It also does not set up mail settings or configure system security so you will have to do those separately. You can use the script as a reference if youâre installing on a non-fresh machine.
# Download the script
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/BookStackApp/devops/main/scripts/installation-ubuntu-22.04.sh
# Make it executable
chmod a+x installation-ubuntu-22.04.sh
# Run the script with admin permissions
sudo ./installation-ubuntu-22.04.sh
# Set the VM IP as domain during the first run of BookStack
