The {PVE} node management tool (pvenode) allows to control node specific
settings and resources.
Currently pvenode allows to set a node’s description and to manage
the node’s SSL certificates used for the API and the web GUI through pveproxy.
pvenode cert set certificate.crt certificate.key -force
Install an externally provided certificate. Both files need to be PEM encoded.
certificate.key contains the private key and certificate.crt contains the
whole certificate chain.
pvenode acme account register default [email protected] pvenode config set --acme domains=example.invalid pvenode acme cert order systemctl restart pveproxy
Setup ACME account and order a certificate for local node.
Wake-on-LAN (WoL) allows to switch on a sleeping computer in the network by
sending a magic packet. At least one NIC must support this feature and the
respective option needs to be enabled in the computers firmware (BIOS/UEFI)
configuration. The option name can vary from Enable Wake-on-Lan to
Power On By PCIE Device, check your motherboards vendor manual, if unsure.
ethtool can be used to check the WoL configuration of <interface> by
running:
ethtool <interface> | grep Wake-on
pvenode allows to wake sleeping members of a cluster via WoL using the
command:
pvenode wakeonlan <node>
This broadcasts the WoL magic packet on UDP port 9, containing the MAC address
of <node> obtained from the wakeonlan property. The node specific
wakeonlan property can be set by the following command:
pvenode config set -wakeonlan XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX
