PXVIRT (Formerly Proxmox-Port)

A fork of Proxmox VE for ARM and LoongArch architectures AGPL-3.0 Licensed | Community-Driven Project

NOTE!

The original Proxmox-Port repository will be frozen, providing deb access but no ISO files. If you want to get updates, please visit docs.pxvirt.lierfang.com to get the latest documentation information!

📖 Overview

PXVIRT is an open-source virtualization platform derived from Proxmox VE, specifically adapted to support ARM and LoongArch architectures. This project originally began as "Proxmox-Port" and has now evolved into a fully independent fork under the new name PXVIRT.

🚀 Why PXVIRT?

Historical Context

Original Mission: The project started as "Proxmox-Port" to port Proxmox VE to non-x86 architectures. Rebranding: Due to trademark restrictions ("Proxmox" is a registered trademark of Proxmox Server Solutions GmbH), we renamed the project to PXVIRT to comply with legal requirements while preserving its core purpose.

Technical Value

  • 🖥️ Multi-Arch Support: Brings Proxmox VE's powerful virtualization tools to ARM64 and LoongArch platforms.We also provide x86 versions of the software to achieve compatibility among three different architectures within the same cluster.

  • 🔄 Upstream Sync: Maintains compatibility with Proxmox VE upstream features while adding architecture-specific optimizations.

  • 📜 License Compliance: Fully open-source under AGPLv3, respecting upstream licensing terms.

  • 🔄 Migration Notice: Proxmox-Port → PXVIRT

Proxmox-Port is now deprecated and will no longer receive updates. All future development will focus on PXVIRT. Users are strongly advised to:

Migrate to PXVIRT for continued support Benefit from upstream feature synchronization Receive ARM/LoongArch-specific improvements

🛠️ Features

Full virtualization stack for ARM/LoongArch servers Web-based management interface Container and KVM virtualization support Storage management integration Network configuration tools Note: Features are inherited from Proxmox VE and extended for target architectures.

Roadmap

  • Easy DPDK
  • Datacenter Manger
  • Integrate more hardware tools, such as IPMI, StorCLI, etc., and provide access interfaces.
  • Integrate more system management tools, such as automatic diagnosis, SAN management, SR-IOV management,VIP,etc..
