Author Name
Ralf-Peter Kleinert (Author)
I was born in January 1981 in Hennigsdorf near Berlin, in the East, in the former GDR. I'm a true "Ossi" (East German). When I was a child, adults still walked through the village with metal milk cans, rubber boots, and pitchforks. When I was 8, we still listened to tube radios, watched black-and-white television, and experienced the end of broadcast hours. Cars were made of cardboard, had no heating, were extremely rare, and whenever a car drove down the main street, we children marveled and would briefly move off the road with our toys.When we were teenagers, riding through the countryside on our Simson moped in the spring, we had to clean the helmet visor every 30 minutes because a layer of insects obstructed the view. Mobile phones and computers? Not even in our wildest dreams. I’m now 42.I have witnessed the entire development: TV, radio, cassette, CD, computer, DVD, BluRay, streaming, mobile – all in sequence. It has been a fascinating journey. From the Commodore C64, Windows 3.1, Windows 95, 98, ME, 2000, XP, Linux, and so on, I was one of the nerds. Nights, months, years in front of the PC. Hundreds of re-installations of Windows 98 - XP because I had deleted or adjusted something I shouldn’t have. Using the PC for work and writing? Never. The PC itself was what fascinated me.In 2010, I completed my desired training as a media designer. The official job title: "Media Designer Digital and Print, specializing in Concept and Visualization."Since 2010, I have had my own website, and in 2016, the first version was archived in the Wayback Machine. Since then, I have been writing about topics from the world of computers. I started actively engaging in IT with simple programming languages (scripting and markup languages) like HTML, CSS, PHP, and jQuery. Today, I mainly program in Delphi and Object Pascal, a high-level compiler language.I published a free digital course for social media managers, wrote many guides on video editing, and achieved quite good search engine rankings. Nevertheless, despite the success in search engines, I completely overhauled my website and focused on IT security. My search rankings plummeted (despite my 301 redirects in the htaccess file on my Apache server).I asked myself: "Ralf, what do you want? To rank high on Google and Co. with social media and video editing topics? Or to offer topics that people need more than ever today?" My answer was clear: "Forget the good click rates. I’m now doing something important!"I decided to focus solely on IT security. Taking courses, obtaining certifications, reading, learning, experimenting, securing, and isolating IT systems. Intentionally infecting my test computer until it can no longer function. I found out that this is an endless pit.Well, great! I’ve given myself quite a task.Now I write in blogs, on my website, and on social media mainly about IT security topics, with tips for the average user and try to make my field as accessible as possible. I also make mistakes, and quite a few, which is why I usually publish important information first and then make minor formatting adjustments, correct spelling errors later, or refine indentation and text layout afterward.Given the multitude of threats and IT attacks, data theft, encryption, extortion of individuals and companies, and even hospitals!!!, I had to make a choice. Either, as my instructors in media design training said, "It must be perfect! It must be finely tuned down to the pixel! 4 out of 10, Ralf-Peter!" Or provide the information, come what may.I decided to release the information and then perhaps revise it later. Hackers, malicious actors, extortionists, viruses, trojans, and malware leave me neither choice nor time. I have to set priorities. With AI accelerating everything even more, I’m almost afraid of where this will lead.Until 2017, I was fascinated by computers. Today, in 2024, I think: Tech giants! It’s going too far. Humanity is losing control over its technology and becoming irrevocably dependent.I hope I can help with my books.Best regards, Ralf-Peter KleinertRead more about this authorRead less about this author

Updated edition. Now with a chapter on creating a high-availability cluster to set up fail-safe VMs.

This technical book provides valuable assistance when it comes to using and securing Proxmox. In this updated edition, I delve deeper into Proxmox and also explain the export of Windows 11 machines from VMware and their import into Proxmox.

You will find many practical tips and guides for effectively managing your virtualized environment in this book. With years of experience with Proxmox, having set up and managed several servers myself, and having worked intensively on this book—over 24 months in total—I have continuously integrated my knowledge and practical experience to offer readers well-founded insights and practical solutions for the challenges of virtualization with Proxmox.

My comprehensive book is aimed at administrators, IT professionals, and anyone who wants to expand their knowledge in virtualization with Proxmox. The current edition has updated key topics and techniques to reflect the latest developments and best practices.

Noteworthy aspects include: High-Availability Clusters: The new chapter on creating a high-availability cluster provides instructions for configuring a robust and fail-safe system. Learn how to build virtualization environments that automatically switch to another node in the event of a node failure to ensure continuous availability.

Of course, you can also use VMware, VirtualBox, or Hyper-V for virtualization—but why do that when you can use the free Proxmox?This Proxmox book is not only a valuable resource for beginners but also for experienced IT specialists who wish to expand their knowledge in managing Proxmox virtualization environments. With detailed step-by-step guides, practical examples, and comprehensive explanations, it provides a solid foundation for working with Proxmox and Linux.

I want to point out that Proxmox and Linux systems can be incredibly unique and complex. My book can only provide initial guidance to help you gradually develop an understanding of how Proxmox works.

I promise you that if you start and use my book as a guide, you will develop that understanding over time. The book is a great entry point.

I also provide links to the manufacturer, who of course has much more to say about the Proxmox virtualization tool. Use this book as a foundation and reference.

You will definitely be able to use Proxmox and find deeper help. To become a Proxmox virtualization ultra-manager, you'll need many, many clicks, hundreds of thousands of keystrokes, countless disappointments, and perhaps even shattered keyboards—regardless of which Proxmox book you choose.

Be brave! Take your time. It really is worth it.

Honestly, I am so enthusiastic about Proxmox that I only allow Windows operating systems to run at home if Windows is virtualized on my Proxmox host. This decision allows me to fully exploit the flexibility and benefits of virtualization.

Proxmox offers a robust platform for managing and deploying virtual machines and containers, which not only increases efficiency but also keeps Microsoft’s update mania in check. .
