Linux Containers (LXC)

The new container solution for Proxmox VE is fully integrated into our 
frameworks, e.g. this includes our advanced storage plugins like ZFS, 
Ceph or even DRBD9, full IPv6 support and much more. LXC works with all 
modern and latest Linux kernels.

Bash completion

All our CLI tools support now advanced bash completion, Linux experts 
will just love it!

New Proxmox VE HA Manager for High Availability Clusters

The new HA manager dramatically simplifies HA setups – it works with 
only a few clicks on the GUI, test it! And it elminates the need of 
external fencing devices, watchdog fencing is automatically configured.
