Installation and Configuration

This tutorial will show you how to successfully install and configure Proxmox Cloud For WHMCS. We will guide you step by step through the whole installation and configuration process.

Installation

1. Log in to your client area and download Proxmox Cloud For WHMCS.

2. Extract the module and upload content of 'UploadOnProxmoxServer' on all Proxmox servers into '/usr/share/novnc-pve/' folder. Note: If you wish to allow noVNC consoles, you need to configure product using PVE realm and user permissions set to 'PVEVMUser'.

3. In the downloaded file you will find two packages that support different PHP versions. As presented on the screen below, the first one is dedicated to PHP 7, while the second one is aimed at PHP 5.4 up to PHP 5.6. It does not apply to open source versions. Note: You can check current PHP version in your WHMCS. To do so proceed to 'Utilities' → 'System' → 'PHP Info'.

4. Extract the downloaded file and choose the one with the right PHP version. Upload and extract the PHP file into the main WHMCS directory. The content of PHP version files should look like this.

5. When you install Proxmox Cloud for the first time you have to rename 'license_RENAME.php' file. File is located in 'modules/servers/proxmoxCloud/license_RENAME.php'. Rename it from 'license_RENAME.php' to 'license.php'.

6. In order to configure your license key, you have to edit a previously renamed 'license.php' file. Enter your license key between quotation marks as presented on the following screen. You can find your license key in your client area → 'My Products'.

Activation of Proxmox Addon

15. Enter product group name and press 'Save Changes'.

16. When you have a product group, you are able to create your product. To create a product click on 'Create a New Product'.

17. Afterwards, choose your product group and type from dropdown menus, enter your product name and press 'Continue'. 'Product Type' can be set to 'Dedicated/VPS Server' but nameservers will have to be added later. If you do not want to be forced to fill out nameservrs, please select here 'Hosting Account'.

18. Now, go to 'Module Settings' section, choose both 'ProxmoxCloud' and your previously created server group from dropdown menus. Next, click on 'Save Changes'.

19. From dropdown menus choose 'Virtualization Type', 'Default Node', 'Template & ISO Storage' and 'User Permission'. Available virtualization types: KVM LXC (supported by Proxmox VE 4.0 and later) OpenVZ (supported by Proxmox VE 3.4 and earlier, prior to Proxmox v2.3.0) You can also choose how often bandwidth usage should be counted. Afterwards, press 'Save Changes'. Note: If you choose 'Auto-Node' as 'Default Note', new virtual servers will be created on the least used node.

20. Setting of KVM virtualization type (skip, if you have chosen LXC virtualization type). From dropdown menus choose 'KVM OS Type', 'Default Storage', 'Disk Type' and 'CD/DVD-ROM Type'. Choose ISO images available for your clients by marking them in 'ISO Image'. Set network through selecting from 'Network Mode', 'Network Model', and 'Bridge' dropdown menus. If you are going to allow your clients to manage their private networks, you must select 'Private Bridge' and set up VLAN TAG Range. Type your VM description in 'Container Description', set backup location in 'Storage' dropdown menu and click 'Save Changes'. Here you may also decide whether you wish to use DHCP software to automatically assign IP addresses, simply select option 'ISC DHCP Server'. Read more about its installation here.

21. Setting of LXC virtualization type (skip, if you have chosen KVM virtualization type). From dropdown menus choose 'Default Storage', 'Template' and 'Bridge'. Enter your virtual servers description in 'Container Description' and press 'Save Changes'. Remember! This virtualization type is supported only by Proxmox VE 4.0. and later.

22. Setting OpenVZ virtualization type (skip, if you have chosen KVM virtualization type). Please note that only versions of Proxmox prior to v.2.3.0 support OpenVZ virtualization. From dropdown menus choose 'OpenVZ OS Templates', 'Default Storage', 'Network Mode' and 'Bridge'. Type in your virtual servers description in 'Container Description' and press 'Save Changes'. Remember! This virtualization type is supported only by Proxmox VE 3.4. and earlier. If you are using the latest version of Proxmox server, you will not be able to start this virtualization.

23. Private Network Management - to allow clients manage their private networks please set up 'Network Device' section properly. Select 'Private Bridge' Select 'Private Network Model' Enter ranges for VLAN TAG Info: Configure these three options for KVM and LXC virtualization. If you skip this step, clients will not me allowed to add private networks.

24. The next step is setting up configuration of backups. Define backup settings in 'Backups' section through selecting values from 'Storage' and 'Backups Routing' dropdown menus. Backups routing automatically removes the oldest backup when a new backup is created and a backup limit is reached. Additionally, you can limit the time period for storing backups by providing the number of days into 'Store The Backup For N Days' field. Furthermore, you can define firewall rules limit and interface to apply rules to. Finish configuration at 'Module Settings' tab through pressing 'Save Changes'. Important: Keep in mind that the root password is generated automatically for KVM virtualization upon its creation and reset. There is no possibility to set your own password due to Proxmox API limitations to KVM virtualization.

25. Set up server limits to control the size of created servers.

26. The final step is generating custom fields and deciding whether to set up product with static or configurable resources. Press 'Generate default' next to 'Custom Fields'. Static Resources: Fill in the fields in 'Default Configuration' section with desired values. Configurable Resources: Click on 'Generate Default' next to 'Configurable Options'. Press 'Save Changes' at the bottom of the page. Note that while generating 'Configurable Options' it is advisable to delete the ones you do not use, e.g. for KVM virtualization delete swap option or IPv6.

27. In the end of the product configuration you have to add cron job that is shown below (5 minutes interval suggested). php -q /your_whmcs/modules/servers/proxmoxCloud/cron/cron.php Do not forget to replace 'your_whmcs' with your WHMCS root location.

Congratulations! You have just finished the installation and configuration of the module.

Configuration of Addon

Automatic IP Address Assignment

Automatic IP address assignment can be applied to your Proxmox module, all you need to do is to install 'DHCP' (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol). IP addresses will be then automatically requested from a DHCP server. Consequently, the need to manually configure them will be reduced to a minimum. Important! This option is available only for 'KVM' virtualization type. Read the below section to learn how to properly install and configure DHCP.

1. First of all, you need to install SSH2 package. You will find precise instructions on how to do that here.

2. Now, you may move to ISC DHCP installation and configuration. Follow the steps below: Install DHCP server package on your Proxmox Node, execute the below command to do so: sudo apt-get install isc-dhcp-server When ready, configure DHCP server in /etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf file, run below command to create the file: sudo nano /etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf Below there is an exemplary content of properly created file: /etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf. Take a look at it to see what data should be inside of it: # Sample /etc/dhcpd.conf # (add your comments here) default-lease-time 600; max-lease-time 7200; option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0; option broadcast-address 192.168.1.255; option routers 192.168.1.254; option domain-name-servers 192.168.1.1, 192.168.1.2; option domain-name "mydomain.example"; subnet 192.168.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 { #ProxmoxIPv4 host 1 {hardware ethernet 32:62:39:64:33:33;fixed-address 1.1.1.101;} host 2 {hardware ethernet 32:39:61:31:33:66;fixed-address 1.1.1.243;} } Key words: #ProxmoxIPv6 #ProxmoxIPv4 suggesting the usage of a specific type of IP address, must be located in the above mentioned file. Note: Only key word corresponding to a used IP type is required. If you do not use IPv6 then #ProxmoxIPv6 key word is not obligatory. More info about configuring DHCP server can be found here.

3. Turn on ISC DHCP. To use automatic IP addresses assignment feature, select 'ISC DHCP Server' option in 'Module Settings' under 'KVM Configuration' section.

IP Manager Integration

Owing to integration with IP Manager For WHMCS you are able to easily create IP addresses subnets and assign them to desired products. 1. Proceed to IP Manager For WHMCS → Subnets tab in order to prepare IP addresses subnet for Proxmox Cloud For WHMCS. 2. Edit a previously created IP addresses subnet and create custom field 'MAC Address' with desired MAC address at each IP address in the subnet. More about creating custom fields can be found here.

3. Afterwards, create a new configuration and assign a previously created subnet to it. Note: Multiple IP addresses subnets can be assigned to a single configuration. 4. Now, link the configuration with Proxmox Cloud product via product, server or configurable option. On the following screen we have linked them via a configurable option assigned to the Proxmox Cloud product.

5. Now, enable integration by proceeding to '3rd Party Integration' tab. Press 'Activate' next to 'proxmoxCloud' module type as shown on the following screen.

6. Next, assign a previously created configuration to the submodule. Press 'Configure', choose the configuration and press 'Save Changes'.

Importing VM

Our module allows you to easily import VM into your cloud product. To do so, press 'Import VM' as shown on the following screen.

Afterwards, select the node on which the server exists and fill in 'VMID' field. Confirm importing through pressing 'Save Changes' button.

Custom Hooks

Our module allows you to use custom hooks, all you need is knowledge of PHP programming language. Custom hooks are placed in 'your_whmcs/modules/servers/proxmoxCloud/customhooks.php' . You can find there all custom hooks and basic information about them. A full list of available custom hooks: proxmoxCloud_beforeCreateVM proxmoxCloud_afterCreateVM proxmoxCloud_beforeTerminateVM proxmoxCloud_afterTerminateVM proxmoxCloud_beforeCreate proxmoxCloud_afterCreate proxmoxCloud_beforeTerminate proxmoxCloud_afterTerminate proxmoxCloud_afterSuspend proxmoxCloud_afterUnsuspend proxmoxCloud_afterIPAdditionByAdmin proxmoxCloud_afterIPDeletionByAdmin proxmoxCloud_afterIPAdditionByUpgrade

Configurable Options

When you successfully set up a product, your clients can order it by choosing from the default configurable options. Note! If automatically generated configurable options do not seem to fulfill your clients needs, you can edit them using this guide.

If you decide to set up pricing per server resource ordered, you can find instruction to proceed here.

Management of Billing

When you combine Proxmox Cloud For WHMCS with Advanced Billing For WHMCS, you will be able to set up additional billing options. Module allows you to charge your customers basing on the server resources used by them.

With Advanced Billing For WHMCS module, you can also display your customers current server resource usage and their cost.

Products Autoscaling

If you want to meet the needs of your clients then give them the possibility to scale provisioned servers according to their current load automatically. To achieve that you need our Proxmox Cloud Autoscaling extension with Advanced Billing For WHMCS product. Only then, when you have such a combination of products your offer will be full.

With the combination of these three items, you will be able to formulate a set of rules basing on which specified servers will be modified at the right time. Advanced Billing For WHMCS will bill your clients for the currently used servers and its extension, Proxmox Cloud Autoscaling, will adjust the size of Cloud product to the current needs.

Tips

1. Operations performed on the virtual servers are not executed immediately. Give your Proxmox Virtual Environment some time for processing the request and execution of operation.

2. Multiple physical Proxmox servers can be joined into one cluster. When they are joined into one cluster, you can access all of them by connecting to any of them. While auto-node creates new VM on the server(node) with the most free resources, server-node creates VM on the server(node) which IP address it has (WHMCS's server configuration).

3. OS Templates are not automatically downloaded while configuring a product. For each virtualization type, templates are downloaded from the Proxmox server depending on which one of them they are generated for.

4. To name the location accordingly to your needs, within the module change the lang into: $_LANG['node_X']='Your friendly name for node_X';

5. When PAM authentication is used it is necessary to create a client first in order to change the password correctly. Read more about it here.

5. As this module supports templates system, any changes made in the module's templates files will be saved after the upgrade process.

Common Problems

1. When you have problems with connection, check whether your SELinux or firewall does not block ports.

2. Error 'Could not create PVE2_API object' during connecting via noVNC console. Reason: User account does not have permission to access noVNC console. Solution: Proceed to product's 'Module Settings' tab and check whether selected user permission grant right for noVNC console. Afterwards, proceed to client's hosting and run 'Change User Role' on it.

3. Error 'This connection is untrusted' during connecting via noVNC console. Reason: Your certificate is not valid. Quick Solution: Your client needs to add Proxmox address to certificate exception list. Best Solution: Configure valid certificate.

4. Blank page during connecting via noVNC console. Reason: You have not uploaded 'mgnovnc.html' on to the Proxmox server. Solution: Extract the module and upload 'mgnovnc.html' file located in 'UploadOnProxmoxServer' on all Proxmox servers into '/usr/share/novnc-pve/' folder.

5. Error 'Function "ssh2_connect" does not exist. Please Install SSH2 PECL before you start using the script.' Reason: You have not updated php.ini file Solution: After SSH2 PECL installation be sure that you have updated php.ini files for CLI and webserver.

6. After you have updated your Proxmox Cloud For WHMCS to Proxmox Cloud For WHMCS V2.0.0, it is always required to save your product configuration in module settings again.

7. If you see an error: 'Invalid VLAN TAG Range' configuration or other when trying to add a new private network, please make sure you have completed all required options in Module Settings. These are: 'Network Device' → 'Private Bridge', 'VLAN TAG Range From' and 'VLAN TAG Range To'.

8. 'OS Architecture Type ' option for LXC virtualization type is currently not supported as it not implemented in Proxmox itself. We are sorry for inconvenience.
