VIENNA, Austria – May 28, 2026 – Enterprise software developer Proxmox Server Solutions GmbH today announced the availability of a new point release for Proxmox Datacenter Manager. The centralized management platform designed to oversee distributed Proxmox infrastructures introduces new enhancements including an automated installation workflow, comprehensive subscription handling, unified Ceph cluster monitoring, and expanded central guest and snapshot management.
Integrated automated installation workflows
Proxmox Datacenter Manager 1.1 now acts as a central configuration server for provisioning. The integration of automated installation functionality standardizes the deployment of hosts across distributed infrastructures. Administrators can centrally manage answer file configurations containing predefined installation parameters and provide them for unattended installations of new hosts. A new ‘Automated Installations’ tab in the ‘Remotes’ section provides access to these workflows, while installation progress can be tracked directly from within the Proxmox Datacenter Manager web interface. A token-based security mechanism protects the installation process and helps ensure that prepared configurations are accessed only by authorized installations.
Centralized management of subscription keys
For large-scale deployments, managing subscriptions across multiple sites can be complex. A new subscription registry in Proxmox Datacenter Manager enables administrators to manage a central pool of subscription keys, assign them to specific remotes, and remove assignments when no longer needed. A prepared answer file can also include a specific subscription key, allowing a newly provisioned host to register its subscription automatically during installation.
Unified Ceph cluster monitoring
For organizations utilizing hyper-converged infrastructure (HCI) powered by Proxmox VE, tracking storage health across distributed sites is vital. Proxmox Datacenter Manager 1.1 delivers deep, unified visibility across these distributed storage environments by introducing native monitoring for all connected Ceph clusters. A single, consolidated panel allows administrators to verify the health, capacity, and real-time performance of multiple Ceph clusters at a glance. The dashboard provides comprehensive, granular insights into the status of Object Storage Daemons (OSDs), monitors, managers, Metadata Servers (MDS), storage pools, CephFS, and specific cluster flags.
Enhanced infrastructure visualization
New dashboard widgets provide administrators with an overview of their distributed Proxmox infrastructures:
Central guest and snapshot management
Proxmox Datacenter Manager 1.1 marks the initial milestone toward comprehensive, central guest management. A new cross-remote view expands guest management by displaying all QEMU virtual machines and LXC containers across connected remotes. Administrators can display these guests in a sortable table or in a tree grouped by remote, use text filtering to quickly locate individual guests, and access frequently used actions from a unified overview.
The same interface now also provides snapshot management for these guest environments. Administrators can view snapshots in a parent-child tree and create, roll back, delete, or edit snapshot descriptions. In addition, a new “Resume” action for paused or suspended QEMU virtual machines complements the existing start, stop, and shutdown operations. As this represents the initial phase of centralized guest orchestration, users can expect additional day-to-day management tasks to be integrated in upcoming point releases.
Updated technology stack
Proxmox Datacenter Manager 1.1 is based on Debian 13.5 “Trixie” and features Linux kernel 7.0 as the new stable default. Along with ZFS 2.4, this release provides an up-to-date open-source software stack for modern centralized infrastructure management and day-to-day lifecycle operations.
Proxmox Datacenter Manager 1.1 is open-source software and immediately available for download at the official website. Users can obtain a complete installation image via ISO download, which contains the full feature set of the solution and can be installed quickly on bare-metal systems using an intuitive installation wizard.
Seamless distribution upgrades from older versions of Proxmox Datacenter Manager are possible using the standard APT package management system. Furthermore, it is also possible to install the platform on top of an existing Debian installation. As Free/Libre and Open Source Software (FLOSS), the entire solution is published under the GNU AGPLv3.
For enterprise environments, customers with active Enterprise support plans for their managed Proxmox Virtual Environment and Proxmox Backup Server remotes also gain access to Proxmox Datacenter Manager updates and support. No separate subscription key is required.
