<h1 className="text-3xl font-bold">System Settings</h1>
</div>
<p className="mb-4">
The System Settings category in the customizable_post_install.sh script focuses on core system configurations
and optimizations for your Proxmox VE installation. These settings are crucial for improving system performance,
stability, and resource management.
</p>
<h2 className="text-2xl font-semibold mt-8 mb-4">Available Optimizations</h2>
<section className="mb-8">
<h3 className="text-xl font-semibold mb-2">1. Enable Fast Reboots</h3>
<p className="mb-4">
This optimization configures kexec for quick reboots, significantly reducing the time needed for system
restarts.
</p>
<p className="mb-4">
<strong>Why it's beneficial:</strong> Fast reboots are crucial in a virtualization environment where downtime
needs to be minimized. By using kexec, the system can skip the time-consuming hardware initialization process
during a reboot, resulting in much faster restart times.
</p>
<h4 className="text-lg font-semibold mb-2">To apply this optimization manually, run these commands:</h4>
<CopyableCode code={fastRebootCode} />
</section>
<section className="mb-8">
<h3 className="text-xl font-semibold mb-2">2. Configure Kernel Panic Behavior</h3>
<p className="mb-4">
This optimization sets up the system to automatically restart on kernel panic, improving system resilience and
uptime.
</p>
<p className="mb-4">
<strong>Why it's beneficial:</strong> Automatic restarts on kernel panic help maintain system availability.
Instead of remaining in a crashed state, the system will attempt to recover by rebooting, potentially
resolving the issue without manual intervention.
</p>
<h4 className="text-lg font-semibold mb-2">To apply this optimization manually, run these commands:</h4>
<CopyableCode code={kernelPanicCode} />
</section>
<section className="mb-8">
<h3 className="text-xl font-semibold mb-2">3. Ensure Entropy Pools are Populated</h3>
<p className="mb-4">
This optimization installs and configures haveged to ensure sufficient entropy, preventing potential slowdowns
in cryptographic operations.
</p>
<p className="mb-4">
<strong>Why it's beneficial:</strong> Many cryptographic operations rely on a pool of random numbers. In
virtual environments, generating true randomness can be challenging, leading to potential bottlenecks. Haveged
helps maintain a healthy entropy pool, ensuring smooth operation of cryptographic tasks.
</p>
<h4 className="text-lg font-semibold mb-2">To apply this optimization manually, run these commands:</h4>
<CopyableCode code={entropyCode} />
</section>
<section className="mb-8">
<h3 className="text-xl font-semibold mb-2">4. Increase Various System Limits</h3>
<p className="mb-4">
This optimization increases various system limits to improve resource management and system performance.
</p>
<p className="mb-4">
<strong>Why it's beneficial:</strong> Default system limits can be too restrictive for high-performance
virtualization environments. Increasing these limits allows for better utilization of system resources,
accommodating more concurrent operations and larger workloads without hitting artificial bottlenecks.
</p>
<h4 className="text-lg font-semibold mb-2">To apply this optimization manually, run these commands:</h4>
<CopyableCode code={systemLimitsCode} />
</section>
<section className="mb-8">
<h3 className="text-xl font-semibold mb-2">5. Install Kernel Headers</h3>
<p className="mb-4">This optimization installs the kernel headers for the current kernel version.</p>
<p className="mb-4">
<strong>Why it's beneficial:</strong> Kernel headers are necessary for building kernel modules, which may be
required by certain software or drivers. Having them installed ensures that you can compile and use custom
kernel modules if needed, enhancing system flexibility and compatibility.
</p>
<h4 className="text-lg font-semibold mb-2">To apply this optimization manually, run these commands:</h4>
<CopyableCode code={kernelHeadersCode} />
</section>
<section className="mb-8">
<h3 className="text-xl font-semibold mb-2">6. Optimize Journald</h3>
<p className="mb-4">This optimization configures journald for better performance and resource usage.</p>
<p className="mb-4">
<strong>Why it's beneficial:</strong> Optimizing journald helps manage system logs more efficiently. By
limiting log sizes and adjusting logging levels, you can prevent logs from consuming excessive disk space
while still maintaining useful system information for troubleshooting.
</p>
<h4 className="text-lg font-semibold mb-2">To apply this optimization manually, run these commands:</h4>
<CopyableCode code={journaldCode} />
</section>
<section className="mb-8">
<h3 className="text-xl font-semibold mb-2">7. Optimize Logrotate</h3>
<p className="mb-4">This optimization configures logrotate for better log management.</p>
<p className="mb-4">
<strong>Why it's beneficial:</strong> Proper log rotation is crucial for managing disk space and maintaining
system performance. By compressing old logs and limiting their size, you prevent log files from growing
indefinitely and potentially filling up your disk.
</p>
<h4 className="text-lg font-semibold mb-2">To apply this optimization manually, run these commands:</h4>
<CopyableCode code={logrotateCode} />
</section>
<section className="mb-8">
<h3 className="text-xl font-semibold mb-2">8. Optimize Memory Settings</h3>
<p className="mb-4">
This optimization adjusts various memory-related kernel parameters for better performance.
</p>
<p className="mb-4">
<strong>Why it's beneficial:</strong> These memory optimizations can significantly improve system performance,
especially in virtualized environments. They help ensure that memory is used efficiently, reduce the
likelihood of out-of-memory errors, and improve the performance of memory-intensive applications.
</p>
<h4 className="text-lg font-semibold mb-2">To apply this optimization manually, run these commands:</h4>
<CopyableCode code={memorySettingsCode} />
</section>
<section className="mt-12 p-4 bg-blue-100 rounded-md">
<h2 className="text-xl font-semibold mb-2">Automatic Application</h2>
<p>
All of these optimizations are automatically applied when selected in the System section of the
customizable_post_install.sh script. This automation ensures that these beneficial settings are applied
consistently and correctly, saving time and reducing the potential for human error.
