Automation & Scheduling

Scheduled tasks, rolling updates, maintenance windows and configuration-as-code.

Automation & Scheduling

ProxmoxVEx turns one-off operations into repeatable automation. Schedule snapshots, backups and rolling updates, define maintenance windows, and trigger Ansible playbooks or Terraform plans directly from the dashboard. Backup verification restores and boots a copy of each backup automatically, so you know your recovery path works before you need it.
