Hi Jan,

Thanks for the suggestion.

I’ve been testing Proxmox for a few weeks.
I must say it’s not bad at all:
- it  supports ZFS (or CEPH) storage
-  allows high availability clusters
- LXD and KVM
- ACLs to different VMs or containers
- offers basic monitoring
- support pices are relatively decent
But 
- it is Debian based
- uses LXC instead of LXD
- does not support live migration of containers or KVM live migration when using local storage (ZFS)
- ?does not offer live kernel upgrade facility like Ubuntu does?
- does not allow clones of lxc containers
-didn’t find the fine grain resource control of LXD ( storage IOPS or Bandwidth,…)
- containers don’t have access to snapshots

The web interface is also not a complete customer portal. That being said I’ve seen there is a beta provider for ‘Foreman’ ( https://theforeman.org )

I’m still investigating it…

Michel
