Terrabad

A rust command line tool for all your proxmox vm management needs.

Usage:

Terrabad currently supports single and bulk actions of cloning and starting/stopping LXC and qemu containers. The project aims in the future to be an all encomposing solution but is currently reliant on proxmox templates.

terrabad.exe -h

Examples

Making a single clone of a template.

terrabad.exe --url <https://proxmox.url:8006> --user <username> --password <yourpassword> --action clone --node <yournodename> --source <VMID you wish to clone> --destination <VMID of resulting clone> --clone_type <linked/full>

Making several clones of a template.

terrabad.exe --url <https://proxmox.url:8006> --user <username> --password <yourpassword> --action bulk_clone --node <yournodename> --source <VMID you wish to clone> --min <start of your VMID range> --max <end of your VMID range> --clone_type <linked/full> --threads <n number of threads>

Starting all VMs/containers in a given range

terrabad.exe --url <https://proxmox.url:8006> --user <username> --password <yourpassword> --action bulk_start --node <yournodename> --min <start of your VMID range> --max <end of your VMID range>

Known issues

As of right now bulk cloning LXCs needs to be single threaded and must be a full clone. There is no built in check on threading LXCs.
Giving more threads to your process than what your proxmox server can handle results in some errors. Do some testing to see what is right for your configuration.
