1 [[sysadmin_package_repositories]]
8 All Debian based systems use
9 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Packaging_Tool[APT] as package
10 management tool. The list of repositories is defined in
11 `/etc/apt/sources.list` and `.list` files found inside
12 `/etc/apt/sources.d/`. Updates can be installed directly using
13 `apt-get`, or via the GUI.
15 Apt `sources.list` files list one package repository per line, with
16 the most preferred source listed first. Empty lines are ignored, and a
17 `#` character anywhere on a line marks the remainder of that line as a
18 comment. The information available from the configured sources is
19 acquired by `apt-get update`.
21 .File `/etc/apt/sources.list`
23 deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian buster main contrib
24 deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian buster-updates main contrib
27 deb http://security.debian.org buster/updates main contrib
30 In addition, {pve} provides three different package repositories.
32 {pve} Enterprise Repository
33 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
35 This is the default, stable and recommended repository, available for
36 all {pve} subscription users. It contains the most stable packages,
37 and is suitable for production use. The `pve-enterprise` repository is
40 .File `/etc/apt/sources.list.d/pve-enterprise.list`
42 deb https://enterprise.proxmox.com/debian/pve buster pve-enterprise
45 As soon as updates are available, the `root@pam` user is notified via
46 email about the available new packages. On the GUI, the change-log of
47 each package can be viewed (if available), showing all details of the
48 update. So you will never miss important security fixes.
50 Please note that you need a valid subscription key to access this
51 repository. We offer different support levels, and you can find further
52 details at https://www.proxmox.com/en/proxmox-ve/pricing.
54 NOTE: You can disable this repository by commenting out the above line
55 using a `#` (at the start of the line). This prevents error messages
56 if you do not have a subscription key. Please configure the
57 `pve-no-subscription` repository in that case.
60 {pve} No-Subscription Repository
61 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
63 As the name suggests, you do not need a subscription key to access
64 this repository. It can be used for testing and non-production
65 use. Its not recommended to run on production servers, as these
66 packages are not always heavily tested and validated.
68 We recommend to configure this repository in `/etc/apt/sources.list`.
70 .File `/etc/apt/sources.list`
72 deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian buster main contrib
73 deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian buster-updates main contrib
75 # PVE pve-no-subscription repository provided by proxmox.com,
76 # NOT recommended for production use
77 deb http://download.proxmox.com/debian/pve buster pve-no-subscription
80 deb http://security.debian.org buster/updates main contrib
85 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
87 Finally, there is a repository called `pvetest`. This one contains the
88 latest packages and is heavily used by developers to test new
89 features. As usual, you can configure this using
90 `/etc/apt/sources.list` by adding the following line:
92 .sources.list entry for `pvetest`
94 deb http://download.proxmox.com/debian/pve buster pvetest
97 WARNING: the `pvetest` repository should (as the name implies) only be used
98 for testing new features or bug fixes.
100 [[sysadmin_package_repositories_ceph]]
101 {pve} Ceph Repository
102 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
104 This is {pve}'s main Ceph repository and holds the Ceph packages for
105 production use. You can also use this repository to update only the Ceph
108 .File `/etc/apt/sources.list.d/ceph.list`
110 deb http://download.proxmox.com/debian/ceph-nautilus buster main
114 {pve} Ceph Testing Repository
115 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
117 This Ceph repository contains the Ceph packages before they are moved into the
118 main repository and is used to test new Ceph release on {pve}.
120 .File `/etc/apt/sources.list.d/ceph.list`
122 deb http://download.proxmox.com/debian/ceph-nautilus buster test
125 {pve} Ceph Luminous Repository For Upgrade
126 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
128 This is a build of tje Ceph Luminous release for {pve} 6.0, this can be used to
129 upgrade a {pve} cluster with Ceph Luminous deployed first to our 6.0 release,
130 based on Debian Buster, and only afterwards upgrade the Ceph on it's own.
132 .File `/etc/apt/sources.list.d/ceph.list`
134 deb http://download.proxmox.com/debian/ceph-luminous buster main
140 We use GnuPG to sign the `Release` files inside those repositories,
141 and APT uses that signatures to verify that all packages are from a
144 The key used for verification is already installed if you install from
145 our installation CD. If you install by other means, you can manually
146 download the key with:
