Proxmox VE tips

Just some tips I gathered over time. All in one easily reachable place so I can share it wherever I want.

Please note that unless you see a shebang (#!/...) these code blocks are usually meant to be copy & pasted directly into the shell. Some of the steps will not work if you run part of them in a script and copy paste other ones as they rely on variables set before.
The { and } surrounding some scripts are meant to avoid poisoning your bash history with individual commands, etc. You can ignore them if you manually copy paste the individual commands.
I chose to write things "in the open" that way so there's still some control and things don't become a black box.
