In this chapter, we explored the graphical user interface of Proxmox. We learned about how the menu system is divided into different entities and what features are used to manage resources in a Proxmox cluster. We also saw different modes of the viewing option to browse all the resources in a Proxmox cluster.
Being equipped with the knowledge of the Proxmox GUI and its features pave the way for much more advanced topics in the coming chapters. Although Proxmox provides many management options through the CLI, a great deal of time is still spent on the Proxmox GUI for day-to-day cluster management.
In the next chapter, we will see what is under the hood for Proxmox. We will see how the Proxmox directory structure is laid out to store vital configuration files, and what the Proxmox cluster filesystem is, and why it is important.
