## Description

This project is a collection of shell-based automation scripts designed to automate the deployment and configuration of Linux containers and virtual machines on Proxmox VE hosts. It provides toolsets for the scripted provisioning of virtual machine infrastructure and the creation of pre-defined containers for various applications.

The toolset includes specialized utilities for Proxmox host management, such as automating post-installation setup, managing system backups, and cleaning up old kernels to reclaim disk space. It further provides automated configurations for hardware passthrough, enabling GPU and USB device access for virtualized instances.

The project covers broader system optimization and maintenance areas, including the tuning of CPU scaling governors and processor microcode for host performance. It also provides orchestration for updating software packages across multiple containers and migrating application data between container instances.
