I am nearly so far I will jump ship to running my own HA LXC, and manually add other containers/plugins.
only Samba is nice and easy. the entire folder structure at your fingertips and browse to it to edit any file.
but I myself am a little bit stumbling on this as well. needs some more love from me to figure out.
If you have a good tip in this, please let me know 
off-topic:
just to note.
If you run adguard as DNS server, and your proxmox server is down for some reason, you might endup with a homenetwork with devices that cannot see eachother. I had this once or twice. not good for the WAF.
I solved (read: I wanted a new toy) this by buying a unifi UDMpro*. This router is solid and linux based. I am running Adguard on there in a podman container. Has been stable since I bought it. sticks after updates+reboots.
. * no, I dont own unifi shares 
Has anybody upgraded their Home Assistant Proxmox from 6.x to 7.x yet?
Given that HA is kinda a mission critical thing in our house, I was curious to see if anyone encountered any issues. I know that the latest first-time install is on Proxmox 7, so it must work. But migrations are rarely with out some form of gotcha, thus the question. Thanks!
Whats the benefit of using proxmox?
I want to install Hass on my hp t620 thin client. It’s running Ubuntu 18.04.
I see people here installing Hass with proxmox on thin clients.
I’m a newbie on installing Hass on a thin client…
I have, and no issues. But thats not saying you won’t of course.
I have read about users having some issues.
in lxc config files containing commands with cgroup.xxx (like “lxc.cgroup2.devices.allow: c 166:* rwm”) These sometimes changed/moved to cgroup2.xxx. Causing some containers not to have working devices.
So if you get a message in the log about that, this is solvable.
regards,
The easiest/safest way to do this is to do a full backup…then install Proxmox 7 and add Home Assistants a container…restore your backup and you’re done. Less than an hour and you’re done. Just follow the cookbook 
Note: I just did a complete reinstall on a Nuc8 following this yesterday.
Thanks all, I will back up everything and give it a try. What could possibly go wrong? 
how did it go?
Have not done it yet. For some reason, the Vm backup process keeps failing. Maybe I have a disk issue, but it’s not clear and this error seems to occur for some people.
HA is totally backed up, so worse case, I’ll have to install it all over again, which is a pain. I’ll schedule this for a weekend when I have the time to debug if needed. But today, it’s sunny and 33, so my efforts are best utilized making cocktails on the deck.
I think ghstudio is not talking about VM backup process.
You can safely upgrade to Proxmox 7. Then create a new VM with the mentioned script. And on that VM you can restore your HA backup.
Understood. It’s the “create new VM” part that I’m trying hard to avoid, although it may be inevitable.
In order to get HA running on my NUC, I had to do some networking changes (probably trivial) on the VM. But I also had to do some USB mapping for my Zwave, Zigbee and BT adaptors. If I can’t copy the VM config over (or upgrade in-place), then I’ll have to figure out what I did there as well.
Not insurmountable but, since I don’t live in Proxmox every day, it’s possibly going to be a pain and I’m hoping it won’t impact the current pairing of Zwave and Zigbee devices as far as HA is concerned. Been there with the ZwaveJS migration and didn’t much like it.
I’m generally totally cool with the VM side of things, except where is comes too how the hardware is abstracted. That’s where things can get messy and thus why I will avoid if possible.
I was about to take the leap to do this as well. I had started with npm since it was giving me some issues as part of HA addon. Did you end up finding a good solution for updates?
@tteck Thanks for the helper scripts. i moved all my stuff from esphome add-on to esphome lxc container but I am having issues with mDNS. Do you know how i can enable the ESPHOME_DASHBOARD_USE_PING or the status_use_ping on the container ?
I’m considering moving my solution to Proxmox as well, but so far I’m not sure if or how I can get Intel NUC video acceleration to LSX for Frigate.
Is it only possible way: LSX → docker → frigate container?
Anyone know how to update Zigbee2MQTT LXC container?
I used apt update && apt upgrade -y from Proxmox Helper Scripts | Proxmox Scripts For Home Automation but i am still at 1.27. while 1.28.1 is already 18 days out.
This is my output:
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
The instructions are there for you to read.
Hi tteck,
I have just used your homeassistant-core-v4.sh to create a container, the container was created OK on my NUC, but while running the command inside the LXC console (cd /srv/homeassistant && python3 -m venv . && source bin/activate && hass) I have got errors below.
Can you please look at it and tell me how to overcome this?
Thanks in advance and have peacefull holidays!

This is a Core issue. The package_constraints calls for dbus_fast-1.82.0 apparently, during initialization, it installs components/dependencies, one which upgrades to dbus_fast-1.83.0 This has been an ongoing issue.
EDIT: The package_constraints shows dbus-fast==1.75.0 before running hass
This has been fixed in the repo
thanks a lot!
I have rebuilt the container and it “frozen” on the line “Unable to find configuration. Creating default one in /root/.homeassistant”, however after reboot of the container I was able to do the other steps and everything seems to work OK.

It wasn’t stuck, there were no errors to report. That’s showing the log output 
You can go to IP:8123 after you run cd /srv/homeassistant && python3 -m venv . && source bin/activate && hass to set everything up. A reboot puts the startup in systemd.
